Violation of human rights of freedom of expression, security , democracy etc.,is more talk on television, radio, newspapers, magazines in United States . Violation of Human Rights of faith in Palestine and Kashmir are more important to television, radio, newspapers and magazines in the Muslim world. Common people in war-torn country like Afghanistan, Human Rights of lack of food, medicine and shelter are more tears.
  
 We are bombarded by television, radio, newspapers, magazines, books, advertisements and all around the violation of human rights. But the violation of human rights of a different nature is more important for a civilization or a country. But all are in violation of human rights of 370 million indigenous people worldwide. Declaration of Human Rights of Indigenous Peoples is awaiting approval from the UN until 2007.United Nations says there are about 370 million indigenous people worldwide.

Many countries are not even accepting human rights for indigenous peoples. Many civilizations do not care about human rights of its indigenous peoples . They have developed themselves at the cost or the death of its indigenous peoples. Declaration of Human Rights of Indigenous Peoples was adopted by the UN General Assembly in September 2007. Canada, with Australia, New Zealand and United States, originally voted against the Declaration of Rights of Indigenous Peoples. So for America, the superpower has shown less interest on the violation of human rights of indigenous peoples. So for the United Nations could do little for those people unfortunate natives worldwide.
