“Countries that censor news and information must recognize that from an economic standpoint, there is no distinction between censoring political speech and commercial speech.

“In a revolutionary age talk of equality may well have represented a passion to provide full human dignity to those who had previously been denied it by systems of political and economic domination; but in the present age it softens the spiritual requirements that are an essential ingredient in human dignity.

“Yes, we've cut the maternal mortality rate in half, but far too many women are still denied critical access to reproductive health care and safe childbirth, and laws don't count for much if they're not enforced. Rights have to exist in practice - not just on paper. Laws have to be backed up with resources and political will. And deep-seated cultural codes, religious beliefs and structural biases have to be changed.” IfsStillsCareLawPoliticalBeliefReligiousHalfPracticeCuttingRightsChangedSafePaperResourcesRateCriticalAccessHealth CareCodeMortalityDeniedChildbirthReligious BeliefPolitical WillReproductive Health Author:Hillary Clinton
