Article # 2
This article states that everyone is entitled to all the rights and
freedoms set forth in this Declaration. Without distinction of any kind,
such as race, colour, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion,
national or social origin, property, birth or other status.
This quote says, You got no right coming in my room. This heres my
room. Nobody got any right in here but me (SteinBeck 68). Crooks is a
man that works at the farm but, because of his colour he has to have a
separate room from the other workers. Also the whites are allowed to
come into his room but he is not allowed to go into their rooms which in
this quote he states that isnt fair.

NGO/ Organization
Commonwealth Human Rights Initiative (CHRI) is an organization
that helps to inform people about the Universal Declaration of
Human Rights. This organization would help Crooks because his
employers made him have a separate room from the rest of the
workers which is breaking article 2 that states that everyone is
entitled to the same rights and freedom not matter their colour,
race, sex, language and etc.

Article # 25
This article states that everyone has the right to a standard of living
adequate for the health and well-being of himself and of his family.
Including food, clothing, housing and medical care and necessary social
services, and the right to security in the event of unemployment,
sickness, disability, widowhood, old age or other lack of livelihood in
circumstances beyond his control.
This quote say, Well, he seen this girl in a red dress. Dumb bastard like
he is, he wants to touch everything he likes. Just wants to feel it. So he
reaches out to feel this red dress an the girl lets out a squawk, and that
gets Lennie all mixed up. so he holds on cause that's the only thing he
can think to do (SteinBeck 41).

NGO/ Organization
Mental Disability Rights International (MDRI) is an organization that
helps people with mental problems. This would help Lennie who has
some mental issues but, no one really understood what went on in his
head. His friend George looked out for him and tried to keep him out of
trouble. This article was also broken because the article states that no
one should be treated differently because of unemployment, sickness,
disability. This also happens to Lennie who was treated very badly
because he had some mental issues.

Article # 10
This article states that everyone is entitled in full equality to a fair and
public hearing by an independent and impartial tribunal, in the
determination of his rights and obligations and of any criminal charge
against him.
This quote says, And he shook her; and her body flopped like a fish.
And then she was still, for Lennie had broken her neck (SteinBeck 91).
Lennine got nervous when she screamed and he tried to make her quit
by putting his hand over her mouth, but starting shaking her to much
and broke her neck.

NGO/ Organization
Crime Stoppers International (CSI) is an organization that helps people
who have been suspected of a crime. If someone is suspected of a
crime they will help find evidence that proves the person did it or not.
This may have helped Lennie even though he actually did kill curley's
wife they had no proof that he was the one who killed her but they
killed him anyways.
