Listen up, people, it's Morpheus:
Also read: What the UDHR Means To Me, Nazanin Boniadi, "Over 190 nations have ratified this declaration; and yet surveys show that more people can name 3 members of the Homer Simpson TV Cartoon family than they can name three of their basic human rights. You can’t defend what you do not know."

Nice video - but did people watch Will.i.am's Yes We Can and think a nice music video with lots of people saying nice things will change the world? It's not like the US elections where it was obvious what objective the video had: to get people to vote one way. But this? Is it aimed at UN officials who are supposed to suddenly rediscover their lost consciences and "speak up for human rights"? Or is it aimed at citizens who will somehow put pressure on their UN officials to speak up?
An important anniversary: we should learn how to honour the UDHR, not just celebrate it when very few know what it actually means and many more aren't protected by it.
The objective of the video - unity of the world through music, unity across languages? I agree, the spectacle of UN delegates bouncing up and down in their seats is a bit strange, but how do you make an uplifting video about human rights?
We should weep not celebrate the anniversary. Now more than ever we need Universal Human Rights
