It depends on exactly what your topic is. A few general human rights sources I can think of include:
link によって Mary Ann Glendon. It talks about Eleanor Roosevelt and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
Speaking of the Declaration, if you'd like to read it, あなた can read the whole thing
link. It's great as a primary 情報源 document.
I don't normally read a lot of text 本 on human rights, but I do read HR related non-fiction. Some good 本 in that category:
link - Tells the story of two brothers growing up in one of the worst neighborhoods in Chicago. A heartbreaking but eye-opening story about gang wars and poverty and the children caught in the middle of it. If this is for an English class, a nonfiction book like this might be great material to read and write about.
A great book about how the American education system is failing its students in regard to social justice issues is Jonathan Kozol's
link.
Other 本 that I have not read personally but have heard great things about include
link,
link, and
link.
As for websites, a great place to start is the
link for their human rights missions.
"Human Rights" is a broad topic, though. Are あなた going to write about human rights as a concept, または a specific human rights crisis? I've provided resources for both of these possibilities. If あなた want もっと見る on a specific topic, let me know. I 愛 to help people learn about human rights.
If あなた want a recommendation of something simple but important to know, I'd write about the Universal Declaration of Human Rights - what it says, why it was written, who wrote it, and how it's used today to defend human rights.
EDIT: I didn't even think of videos! I have some great full-length 動画 on immigration and human rights, as well as global inequalities. Just ask, and I can link あなた to them where あなた can watch them for free.
