Human Rights in Africa
Katlyn A.
What is my research topic? What are some research keywords I used?
- My research topic is Human Rights in Africa.
- Some keywords that helped me are: Human Rights, Africa, Slave ships, and
Racism.
What does Human Rights mean? What is the definition or description of Human
Rights?
- If you don't have Human Rights than racism would still be going
on.
- Also maybe even slavery or the other horrible stuff that went on a long
time ago.
- There still might have been different restaurants for different
races.
- There might even be more Massacres than there are today.
- Human Rights are those rights that each person is in titled to simply
because he or she is a Human being.
Why is Human Rights important in Africa?
- It is important because now there are laws against slavery and
racism and est..
- They also can' be beat. Now the people can go into any restraints.
- They wont get any worse service than any other race.
- Now
the people in Africa cant be kid napped and turned into slaves or anything
else because they are protected.
- It is a good thing that there protected.
Why is Human Rights a problem in Africa?
- It is an issue because they don't follow all the laws and they don't
respect Human Rights.
- They have horrible houses and some don't even have
houses.
- So they can get sick or get Aids easily because there houses
are horrible are horrible.
- They have to walk everywhere because no one
or not many people have cars because they can't afford them and there are
not many roads.
- That causes there feet to get cut because most people don't
even have shoes.
How does Human Rights affect the people who live in Africa?
- It affects them because there are massacres in Africa so that is so
horrible.
- There are huge killings and that is so horrible.
- I feel sorry
for the people in Africa.
- Massacres happen there sometimes but hear it does
not happen almost at all.
- It is a horrible thing to do and to get it
done to you.
What does the rest of the world (not Africans) think about Human Rights? What
is the global reaction to Human Rights?
- They think that Human Rights is good because if you are a human being
you have Human Rights.
- But in Africa people don't have very good Human
Rights that can be followed.
- They think that there Human Rights are good
because they have it better than most people in Africa.
- People in Africa
have it not so good.
- The global reaction is people are trying to help kids
and adults higher there Human Rights to a little bit higher level.
What can be done to help the problem of Human Rights? What is being done to
correct Human Rights?
- We people can help by donating and helping the people in Africa.
- If we
stood up for Human Rights then it might help Africa.
- There are laws
for Human Rights.
- Every Human being is supposed to have Human Rights because that is
what people think, but not every one gets treated with respect.
- Every one should get treated with respect because if not it is just
wrong.
What is my personal opinion of Human Rights? How do I react and feel about
Human Rights?
- My personal opinion on Human Rights is every person is a human being and
should have Human Rights.
- They are Human being and they deserve to be treated like Humans.
- The people in Africa I feel sorry for because they don't have good
or even the best Human Rights and there not always followed.
- I feel like every one should follow and have Human Rights.
- It is just horrible to see on a video that people have it horrible
,I will think about the next time I get or see some one get mad because they
think that there life is horrible because they do not have something. They
have it better than people in Africa.
