What are human rights? They're a fundamental part of society; they make sure we are all treated with the same level of equality, dignity and respect. Without them, our lives would be completely different. But that's just scratching the surface. This beautiful animation will explain why we have human rights (funded by the Legal Education Foundation). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- EachOther is a UK-focused charity that uses independent journalism, story-telling and film-making to put the human into human rights. The digital content we produce is grounded in the lived experience of ordinary people affected by human rights issues. We involve them in the process of developing their stories, rather than talking for or over them. Theirs are the voices we platform and amplify to our lay audience of over a million viewers each year. In this way, we hope to grow public support for human rights here in the UK.

I like how he says "And yes, prisoners". Because tragically society seems to forget that prisoners still count as human beings and too often prisoners are abused or mistreated by society.
its a shame how humand need to LEARN to treat one another with respect.
That was really well made, not to mention the GOT reference.
Human rights are human rights. They are not laws.Simple
Great animation . Well explained and somehow touching . I'm doing a presentation on this topic and I'd love to show this to my class ! Great stuff :D
I remember coming here about 3 years ago for a speech, 3 years later I'm back here to tell that that speech changed my life for the better
My school brought me here I just sped it up Bruh
Hi! Would you be interested in a translation to brazilian portuguese? I could do it and send you the .srt subtitle file. I'd like to share this to the Brazilian audience (our society could really use this video. Just look at the news. It's shameful). Thanks in advance.

That music and voiceover..., ❤
thanks for the video... but, wasn't it nice of all those rich elitists to tell us what our human rights are? question... when are they going to start enforcing these "rights" they so kindly granted us? I've yet to hear from any "human rights" advocate who understood anything about human rights! human rights are individual rights, your equal right to choose your own path. we all have the equal right NOT to be oppressed by anyone else. we all have the equal right to a home, medical care that we control, a life time of true education, legal representation, clothing and food. we all have the same equal right to be free. we have the equal right not be beaten by cops, tricked or coerced into contracts that do us harm and to be protected from the predation of the elite or the majority... we have the equal right not to be denied our equal rights for lack of money or to be charged a fee to have our human rights enforced. POVERTY VIOLATES HUMAN RIGHTS! THESE ARE HUMAN RIGHTS! good video!
After reading the article and watching the video I believe that we as humans should not ignore these cries for help. Victims of these crimes go to no one for help. I do believe these are global major issues that need to addressed and I believe that everyone is entitled to their freedom and rights no matter what age, ethnicity, gender, or religious beliefs.
The biggest tragedy of scrapping the HRA is that it would mean we could not enforce ECHR rights in the UK. We would still have human rights but the added expense and time-lag would mean they would be in name only. Just look at cases like Smith & Grady v UK to see how important the HRA is to our legal system. Why on earth anyone would want human rights legislation written by politicians, I don't know. Human rights are supposed to transcend politics.
Nicely done!
