Abstract	Every human being deserves the right to live in freedom and dignity. Yet human rights violations dominate the headlines. In addition to becoming sensitive to human pain and suffering, young adults must also begin the lifelong process of creating, recognizing, and exercising options. This resource guide contains suggested questions and projects that have been found to be helpful in teaching about human rights. Chapter topics are: (1) What Are Human Rights?; (2) The Roots of Inhumanity; (3) Inhumanity: An Historical Overview; (4) The Rise of Totalitarianism in Germany; (5) Surplus People: The Final Solution; (6) Surplus People: The Pattern Continues (Argentina, Kampuchea [Cambodia], South Africa, and World Totalitarianism); and (7) Taking Action. Three appendices conclude the document: (1) Appendix A--"The Foundations of Human Rights in the United States"--containing excerpts from the Declaration of Independence, Constitution and Bill of Rights; (2) Appendix B--"Universal Declaration of Human Rights"--adopted by the United Nations, December 1948; and (3) Appendix C--"Teaching Activities"--containing sample lessons/units including "We Are the World,""Human Rights Study Guide," and "Anne Frank and World War II."
