Human Rights are like a guide that we all have when we are born to show what we are allowed/free to do. When we violate/deny a human right, we are then crossing the line that harms a being.
The connection to language would be the all forms of expression to show what we feel about various things. Forms of expression include writing poems, songs, raps, stories, narratives; speaking, such as singing, rapping, re-telling a story; acting, such as putting yourself in another persons' shoes; drawing images, paintings, to convey a message or let whatever the situation be known. Language is all around us. We just have to open our eyes to accept diversity & ways of doing things. Language is the streetlight, telling us to go, slow down or stop. Language is anything that shows us direction & how to go about situations. Most often, we have to figure out language ourselves, to find meaning. Language signals what must be done. Language is life. We need it to adapt, understand, survive & to progress.

My tentative proposal, something I'd contribute to the book, would be situations where language was misunderstood, not communicated well enough & thus created emotions that lead to something bad. Then I'd like to have the good result show how the transition came to be. Situations could've been prevented, but due to lack of understanding, we've created more problems with simple solutions that have been ignored.
