The colonists had never accepted the constitutionality of the duty on tea, and the Tea Act rekindled their opposition to it. Their resistance culminated in the Boston Tea Party on December 16, 1773, in which colonists boarded East India Company ships and dumped their loads of tea overboard.
Winston <span>Churchill won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1953 for his lifetime body of work.
</span><span>
Churchill’s mother Lady Randolph (Jennie Jerome) was an American born in Brooklyn, which of course made Winston half American.
</span>While serving a dual role as a war correspondent and military officer in South Africa, Churchill <span>was taken captive by the Boers. He was able to scale a wall and sneak out one night. After hiding in a mineshaft and sneaking aboard a train, he was able to rejoin the fight after a week.

He was also accident prone and still managed to make it to 90 years old!
As a child, Churchill suffered from concussions and ruptured kidney while playing on a bridge. Once, he nearly drown in a Swiss lake (yikes!). He fell from multiple horses (done that). Dislocated his shoulder (painful!) disembarking from a ship in India. Crashed a plane while learning to fly (if he was alive i wouldnt want him piloting any plane im on). Was hit by a car while crossing 5th Avenue in New York (again, painful!)
<span>What an adventure!</span>
Churchill suffered from depression all his life, but his mental health deteriorated markedly in his final years. It didn't help that one daughter was suicidal while another was a drunkard. His physical health also continued to decline, and he suffered a series of strokes.

Answer:
The Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) is a milestone document in the history of human rights. Drafted by representatives with different legal and cultural backgrounds from all regions of the world, the Declaration was proclaimed by the United Nations General Assembly in Paris on 10 December 1948 (General Assembly resolution 217 A) as a common standard of achievements for all peoples and all nations. It sets out, for the first time, fundamental human rights to be universally protected and it has been translated into over 500 languages. The UDHR is widely recognized as having inspired, and paved the way for, the adoption of more than seventy human rights treaties, applied today on a permanent basis at global and regional levels (all containing references to it in their preambles).
