Universal Declaration of Human Rights


Universal Declaration of Human Rights



'Ripple of Hope' Speech

Ripples to Waves....


Steven Schmidt, GreenPolicy360 Founder-Siterunner: Over the years I have often been asked about what went into the drafting of the U.S. Green Party's founding platform. As the principal drafter I most always speak of a "rights agenda", that I was (and still am) attempting in my green political work to expand and bring into reality human rights... and civil rights, voting rights, and on and on. The rights that come out of the Age of Enlightenment is one foundation, and looking back we can see a struggle throughout the world, over centuries for basic rights ("life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" is a enlightened starting point.) The Declaration of Independence and U.S. Constitution were extensions of this, the democratic Republic form of government a light to the world as the French-gift of the Statue of Liberty announced to generations of American immigrants.

Eleanor Roosevelt is a star in this constellation. Today she might be called an "influencer", and as President Roosevelt's inspiring force of will power who brought her profound contributions into political reality, helping create and shaping what became known as the "New Deal" that continues on to this day, Eleanor's personal story continues up close and personal here.

Let me explain:
