You may not have noticed this. The world “celebrated” International Human Rights Day the other day, even as wars across the planet continued, bombs fell, children died. What if “freedom from war” were a human right?

I don’t ask this to be cynical, but rather to expand the reach of what should be a global day of connection and collective inner reflection. International Human Rights Day is Dec. 10. It’s an annual honoring of the day in 1948 when the newly formed United Nations, in the wake of World War II, adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which publicly recognizes “the inherent dignity and . . . equal and inalienable rights of all members of the human family.”

A diverse coalition of Ohioans from across the state, including a caravan from Cleveland, is headed to Columbus today to testify against Senate Bill 297 (SB 297), a controversial piece of legislation being rushed through during the lame-duck session. The bill, endorsed by Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost, seeks to encode the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) definition of antisemitism into state law, attaching this definition to heightened criminal penalties.
