This is a day which has been set aside annually. for the past 31 years. since the Declaration of Human Rights by the United Nations. This historic document elaborated special rights which each individual was entitled to enjoy regardless of the form of government under which he lived. The freedoms of speech. travel. immigration. the freedom to feel safe in the home. the rights to a fair trial and to just punishment.-were all declared to be the universal inheritance of mankind. Until recently. we Americans took these rights for granted. For us. the denial of human rights was all too often an abstraction.
