Oral Intervention to the UN Commission on Human Rights re: Other vulnerable groups and individuals (Agenda Item 14(d))

Human Rights are for all humans, but we usually do not enjoy these fundamental freedoms, because we are not perceived as having rights or humanity.

“On a daily basis, we face abuse ranging from being cursed and sworn at; to being made to feel that we are less human than others; rejected by our families, ostracized from society, loss of work and homes, denied health care and other services; through to violence leading to hospitalization or even death . . . .”
