Question

What are the basic dignities that each human being deserves and why do we let so many people go without them? clairemack


Answer

Angaangaq Lyberth: Claire, it’s so interesting what is the basic dignities. Where I come from on top of the world the basic dignity is recognizing each one another. When we don’t then we begin to remove those dignities. Each person on Earth, 6-1/2 billion of us, have the right to be recognized. But we don’t. Look at your people in Australia. They don’t recognize the Aborigines. They were there before anyone else. As in Greenland, where I come from, the Danes don’t recognize the rights of my people. So the dignities are removed by the rightful ownership of the land, when nobody owns anything but themselves. So when you realize that, you begin to see how we treat each other degradingly to a large, large degree everywhere. To answer your question, Claire, everyone has rights and deserves the dignity but that comes from you. If it does not come from you it cannot be delivered. You are responsible for recognizing everyone as I do. So let’s help each other to achieve that.
