In today's day and age, it's extremely important to focus on human rights. I mean, Trump is going to be our new President and if we want to get past these next 4 years, we have to all come together and fight for equality. December is National Human Rights month. Many people seem to forget that we are all born equal. Human rights are an important topic that we must pay attention to.

1. Marriage Equality

You would think that the world accepted the LGBTQ community by now. On June 26th, 2015 the US legalized gay marriage. It's been almost a year and a half and some of the world still won't accept it. Why can't some people accept the fact that we should be able to love whoever we chose?

2. Freedom of Religion

Muslim women are being warned not to wear their hijab's in public due to fear....... Need I explain anymore why we must fight for all humans to have the exact same equal rights?

3. Freedom of Speech

I am a living witness that no one has the freedom to say what they want. You are judged to hell and back for anything you say... That's a serious problem.

4. Protection

We aren't protected. No one is protected. We think we are, but we aren't. If we fight for anything, protection of all people should be the main one, especially after what is going on these last couple of years.

5. Freedom and Equality

All roads seem to lead back to the fact that we lack freedom and equality. We are judged when we express our love for something that may be the same sex as us. We can't practice certain religions or say what we want to say without having to live in fear. Not everyone gets the protection they need and it honestly sucks. It sucks knowing that no matter how hard we fight for human rights, everyone will never be seen as equal.
