As we honor our nation's independence this 4th of July, we are mindful of the fact that justice and economic equality are still not guaranteed for everyone. Each consumer we've assisted represents a step towards a more equitable future.

A society that puts equality before freedom will get neither, A society that puts freedom before equality will get a high degree of both, One of the great mistakes is to judge policies and programs by their intentions rather than their results.

Rights for Everyone: Positive Obligations and the Protection of Human Rights 18 June, 10.00-16.00 Venue: BC-03-125, BC Building Ulster University York Street This one-day workshop for civil society, policy-makers and academics reflects on the current state of human rights protection, and in particular the role of positive obligations in the protection of human rights. It takes place within the context of differing and sometimes conflicting human rights agendas at different levels of government in the UK. Speakers will address the role of positive obligations in the framework of the European Convention on Human Rights and more specifically the contribution of the doctrine to human rights protection in Great Britain and in Northern Ireland. As well as examining the concept of positive obligations speakers will address how positive obligations can protect socioeconomic rights, civil and political rights such as the right to life and voting rights, and can protect groups liable to discrimination or marginalisation such as victims of trafficking, persons with disabilities and women. Confirmed speakers: Vladislava Stoyanova (Lund), Alan Brecknell (Pat Finucane Centre), Elaine Crory (Women’s Resource and Development Agency), Nuala Toman (Disability Action), Gillian Kane (Ulster), Caitriona Mackel (Ulster), Rory O’Connell (Ulster), Kevin Hanratty (Human Rights Consortium).

Democracy and socialism have nothing in common but one word: equality. But notice the difference: while democracy seeks equality in liberty, socialism seeks equality in restraint and servitude.

🌟 Celebrating Martin Luther King Jr.'s enduring legacy, a revered American figure from my hometown, Atlanta, Georgia! This week, I'm excited to guide my students through a literacy lesson, exploring MLK's timeless essay, "The Purpose of Education." We're not only delving into his powerful ideas but also honing in on the author's purpose and goals. Connecting MLK's profound insights with the UN's Sustainable Development Goals makes for a comprehensive learning experience. In today's world, MLK's words ring true, emphasizing the importance of critical thinking and morality in education. Let's honor his vision and inspire the next generation for positive change! ✨📖 #MLKDay #EducationForAll #SDGs #InspireChange #LiteracyLesson #EveryChildAReader #NotAllHeroesWearCapes #Equality "The function of education, therefore, is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. But education which stops with efficiency may prove the greatest menace to society. The most dangerous criminal may be the man gifted with reason but with no morals." Martin Luther King Jr.
A reminder that dreams of equality, freedom, and justice are not just visions of the past but guiding lights for our future. 🌟 #MLKDay #IHaveADream #EqualityForAll

These changing meanings of freedom raise essential questions about the nature of individual rights, the role of the state, and the balance between individual and collective interests. To what extent should the state be limited in its ability to regulate individual behavior? How can we ensure that all members of society have the capacity to exercise meaningful freedom? What is the relationship between individual liberty and social equality? These questions continue to be debated by philosophers, policymakers, and citizens alike. #questions
