Protecting Human Dignity : The Moral Compass To Save Humanity
What does it mean to be human and to be treated as one? To be human is to possess dignity, and the right to live in peace. Human dignity is the essence that defines us, yet it is exponentially threatened in today’s world. Every human being deserves to be treated fairly, to have their rights respected, and to live free from fear and deprivation. No human being should be denied their basic needs for water, food, shelter, and medical treatment as the Palestinians are. When we deny others their needs and dignity, we not only wound them, but we also wound humanity itself.
