Dec. 10 marks International Human Rights Day to commemorate the signing of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in 1948.
The declaration includes 30 rights and fundamental freedoms the body deemed vital to the everyday lives of all people.
Additionally, on this day in 1964, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. accepted the Nobel Peace Prize for his leadership in the civil rights movement.
He said, “This Nobel Prize was won by a movement of great people, whose discipline, wise restraint and majestic courage has led them down a nonviolent course in seeking to establish a reign of justice and a rule of love across this nation of ours.”
All this and more on “Prime.”
