Since
we launched #YALIStands4All, more than 5,000 leaders — people like you —
have pledged to stand up for human rights in their communities: to support
the basic rights and freedoms to which all humans are entitled, regardless
of their nationality, gender, ethnic origin, sexuality, color, physical
ability, religion, language, and/or economic status.
Today,
December 10th, is Human Rights Day, which commemorates the day in 1948 when
the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of
Human Rights.
This
year, the UN’s Human Rights Day calls on everyone to stand up for someone’s
rights. YALI celebrates those who work to protect human rights and honor
our differences today and every day. If you are against prejudice and bias
in your community, we urge you to join #YALIStands4All and the YALI Network
in supporting this essential principle.
