[hr-education] Re: Culture of human rights

Dear Colleagues,

I will try to write in English, but it isn't so good, so I apologize for
it.

Maybe I don't understand correctly, but the concept of "to live and let
others live" is so confusing to me. Is that a definition between cultures,
inside one culture? -- is an issue to think about.

I could think that those women who were victims of their own culture, of
lot of kinds of violence -- I don't think that I would advocate for a
Culture of human rights and let others like Talibans live without my words
expressing those horrors. It will be wonderful if each person respects
each other, man or woman, white, black, yellow, between different cultures
and inside them too but that is a dream today.

I think it will be an interesting issue to think how long we respect other
cultures if we see that some human rights aren't being respected there. We
live and let others live? Or we cry that things like that happens right
now in our world?

I will like to read other opinions!!! Thanks for reading my opinion and
forgive me once again for my English; I'm from Argentina and I write
better in Spanish.

Sincerely yours
María Teresa Gutiérrez
