To deny people their human rights is to challenge their very humanity.
Nelson Mandela
In this quote, Nelson Mandela emphasizes the essential role of human rights in recognizing and respecting human dignity. By saying, "To deny people their human rights is to challenge their very humanity," Mandela is arguing that human rights are fundamental to the very essence of being human. He implies that when people are stripped of their rights, they are effectively being stripped of their humanity, as human rights are intrinsic to human dignity, identity, and worth.
