Throughout out the course, the question of what is human rights? Appeared several times. I have noticed it in two of my classes of which are Law and Human Rights and English 101. In Law and human rights we are familiarized with rightsw that we have as being human beings, where as in English 101 we have the opportunity of experiencing the life of those whose rights were clearly taken from them. The life of an African American slave. Linguistics gives us the opportunity to see how language was used to describe human rights, and how language was used to take human rights from human beings. It's a great learning experience to be in such a culturally diverse class, I myself am a Russian Jew all I have noticed it that we have so many different cultures in our class. I am fascinated to see how every culture is different, once again it is a great learning experience. I have learned an enormous amount of information about my classmates in LIB 110, many students hesitated to write about themselves on their blog...however as we progressed we came to a valid conclusion. Nobody is perfect, those around us may seem as if they are perfect, however once we have the opportunity to sit down and speak to one another culture nor religion comes into play. We are one. We realize that we are so close, we experience very similar issues. The most important part is that we do not hesitate to open up to one another, didn't you forget we are only human. It is natural for all to have some sort of issue, we are not perfect. As you can see I have learned quite a lot within this cluster. I am fine with the direction the cluster is leading to, the studies only bring us as humans closer to one another as well as giving us knowledge that will be necessary to live our every day life as civilized human beings. LIB 110 gives us the opportunity to express ourselves, rights that may have been taken from us or an individual that may be close to us....so don't hesitate to share...if you made it this far you are fine! We are only human and we are not perfect!
