10 December Human Rights Day- 2

Today we celebrate a special day which is Human Rights Day. What are human rights? Well, human rights are the rights you have, simply because you are a human.
A very famous man came up with the idea of human rights around 539 BC, his name was Cyrus the Great. He was a king. He gave freedom to slaves.

Many great people fought hard for human rights such as; Martin Luther King, Nelson Mandela and Gandhi. At the end of all their actions, on 10th December 1948, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights was accepted.
Although it was signed by many countries, it is not followed by all of them. There is still discrimination and racism in the world.

What are human rights? Every single person should have the right to chose how their lives are going to be. They have the right to be free. All people should have equal rights. Even kings and queens are humans, just like everybody else. So they also should have the same rights and punishments like the others.

10 December Human Rights Day- 1

Today is a very special day for us because all humans are created equal. Many people fought for human rights such as; Cyrus the Great, Mahatma Ghandi, Martin Luther King and Nelson Mandela. These people tried to bring rights to everyone but people like Hitler didn't care and killed many people during 2nd world war.
Magna Carta was the first human rights agreement and  one of the most famous.

Universal Declaration of Human Rights is very important because it gives the equal rights to all.
In my opinion all countries should follow Human Rights but there are people who are treated very badly and they don't know about their rights.

Today we celebrate a special day because it is 'Human Rights Day'. Humans have right to education and right to live. All humans are created equal. Universal Declaration of Human Rights has 30 articles which explain our rights. Before that Cyrus the Great gave freedom to slaves and right to chose their religion. 

All humans should have equal justice and punishment as we say in Portuguese; ' Even if it's a King.'

In my opinion, The Universal Declaration of Human Rights is great because it helps people to understand their rights.
