Wettin you carry? (Who are you?)
Femi Babawande

Art. Perspective. Possibility.
"Whereas recognition of the inherent dignity and of the equal and inalienable rights of all members of the human family is the foundation of freedom, justice and peace in the world, Whereas disregard and contempt for human rights have resulted in barbarous acts which have outraged the conscience of mankind, and the advent of a world in which human beings shall enjoy freedom of speech and belief and freedom from fear and want has been proclaimed as the highest aspiration of the common people, All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. Everyone is entitled to all the rights and freedoms set forth in this Declaration, without distinction of any kind, such as race, colour, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status. Furthermore, no distinction shall be made on the basis of the political, jurisdictional or international status of the country or territory to which a person belongs, whether it be independent, trust, non-self-governing or under any other limitation of sovereignty."
Slavery and torture are illegal, an opinion is a right. There are places where opinions are not free, people live in chains, and when they express themselves, they are tortured. We are born free, and equal in dignity and rights. One day we die. What happens in between?
We wanted you to use an image to interpret violations of elementary and basic human rights OR to promote equal dignity and freedom.
