What is a human rights career like? How should public schools teach the history of human rights? Does the wizarding world of Harry Potter uphold human rights? For answers to all of these questions, you're listening to the Rights Pod. The Rights Pod is produced by the Center for Human Rights and International Justice at Stanford University. Each week, current and former human rights students will discuss human rights—from how they are implemented in the international system to human rights in small places, close to home.
