Rights Night: Celebrate, Reflect, Act December 10, 2008

Join UUSC for Rights Night, an evening to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. On this occasion, we will honor Rev. Gloria White-Hammond with UUSC's Eleanor Roosevelt Human Rights Award for her commitment to humanitarian service and human rights.

Dr. William F. Schulz, former executive director of Amnesty International and chair of UUSC's Board of Trustees, will reflect on "The Legacy of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights: Where Do We Go from Here?"

7 p.m., Wednesday, December 10, 2008
The Rabb Lecture Hall
Boston Public Library

The evening's tribute and reflection will inspire you to act on Eleanor Roosevelt's belief that "universal human rights begin in small spaces, close to home, where every man, woman, and child seek equal justice, equal opportunity, and equal dignity."
