Halloween Reflection


             It’s an odd sensation, writing this reflection on what feels like a Monday evening.  As I was thinking about political and natural human rights in the MENA region and their reformation for this week’s brief, I found myself pondering the same rights in what we consider free nations.  An article about an imam being arrested and deported for hate speech in a Paris mosque also brought along this train of thought.  Algeria’s public is mostly interested in the ability to protest, since their government has greatly repressed this right.  Has my lack of political activism been a waste of my natural rights?  I wouldn’t think so, but others may think differently.
