Canadian Museum for Human Rights

If you have not yet been to http://www.canadianmuseumforhumanrights.com, go. Click on this site and watch the video tour of the museum. I'll wait for you. I'm patient.

Ok. Are you back? Let's look at what you just saw.

"Freedom, equality and the right to live in peace" "Ascension of humanity through transformed lives" "Darkness to light, despair to hope"

This is just a little bit of what they speak about.

I was concerned that the Canadian Museum for Human Rights might become a museum showcasing the abuse of human rights, but this does not appear to be the case. The abuses are put into the context of the past, or negative analysis to see where we need to shed a bit of light, while the main focus is on the positive changes you can make for the future.

I only make a couple thousand dollars a year, but I want to do what I can to support this museum. So please take a look around their site. Write to them. Offer them ideas. Offer them service.

And see what you can do to help make a difference, too.
