I want to raise awareness for human rights issues and injustice that takes place around the world each day, much of which a lot of us know nothing about. Injustice seeps into every area of life and I would like to actively be involved in trying to change this. Writing this blog brings me a little closer to achieving this. Your support and comments are much appreciated ☺️
