Today is Humans right day and I keep wondering for how long patience will keep on accepting the unacceptable.
It seems to me that the fight for humans right should be something much more active and not only the mere remembrance of the Universal Declaration of Humans Rights and some petitions. The UN headquarters in New York City, US, should try promoting jurisprudence and make some of the rights to be more known like "The Right to Refuse to Kill".
The agenda should approach not only a number of countries that are, well, far away from the western civilization.
Anyway...
This is a photography of Gustav Klimt's Jurisprudence presented in 1903 for the murals of the University of Vienna ceiling but it was not accepted as well as the two others Philosophy, received a golden medal in Paris but was attacked in Klimt's homeland, and Medicine.
Jurisprudence was the third presented not accepted and was destroyed by the Nazis in 1945 when the SS burned to the ground the castle the piece was hidden.
It shows a condemned man surrounded by the furies: Law, Justice and Truth. That is what humans right is all about at least for me.
