According to the United Nations website, “Human rights are rights inherent to all human beings, regardless of race, sex, nationality, ethnicity, language, religion, or any other status. Human rights include the right to life and liberty, freedom from slavery and torture, freedom of opinion and expression, the right to work and education, and many more. Everyone is entitled to these rights, without discrimination.”
It’s quite common today for an array of cultural voices to appeal to human rights as justification for their ideas and agenda. For example, in June 2022, when the US Supreme Court voted to overturn Roe v. Wade, news headlines and social media posts lamented the loss of the basic human right of abortion.
