Who gives us our rights

The previous image shows an African girl exhibited in a zoo in Belgium, at a time as recent as 1958, that was 61 years ago and it seemed very normal to deny that girl her status as a person, along with her basic rights, just because its appearance and its origin was different, to those of those people who paid a ticket to go to see it, this does not mean that all those people were monsters, they were people of their time who grew up thinking that normal was right.

Throughout history we have discovered on many occasions that what is considered normal is not necessarily the right thing, in fact we make the laws based on what at one time seems normal and correct, until someone arrives and says that It is wrong, either because it transgresses the rights of others or because it fosters inequality, which creates a disadvantage for a particular group.

65 years ago women in Mexico could not vote, this was so normal that it was reflected in the laws of that time, but uncomfortable so much some women that after decades of struggle, they reached the point where even people who were comfortable with This previous reality, they had to accept the immorality that supposed to deny women the right to suffrage, therefore our reference of what is right and moral, should not be based on what is normal or legal, the laws are lazy and if Alone, they will not adhere to what is right, precisely because those who make the laws are people who are commonly a reflection of their time and are attached to the needs of some group unless there are people opening their eyes.

That is why wherever you are, it requires respecting your rights, at no time in history was it given without fighting.
