Ways and Memes

Sixty years ago, on December 10, 1948, the General Assembly of the United Nations adopted and proclaimed the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The Assembly then called upon all of the Member countries "to cause it to be disseminated, displayed, read and expounded principally in schools and other educational institutions, without distinction based on the political status of countries or territories."

That's pretty much straight from the Human Rights Action Center website.

Now, maybe the
Universal Declaration of Human Rights is distributed all over the place, taught in schools, and memorized on special occasions, but I hadn't heard of it before. As a wall of text, a person can be turned off from reading it, which is a shame.

With music and intriguing graphics, however, the message can be spread much further. I consider this to be an important lesson in tactics.
