"The story about the life of John Peters Humphrey, drafter of the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights"--T.p.
As a child growing up in a small town in Canada, in the early 1900s, John Humphrey experienced much bullying after the loss of his arm at age six. Despite personal tragedy, John's determination and resilience led him through many adventures and into a brilliant career. John was the first Human Rights director at the United Nations and drafted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. "By portraying the life of John Peters Humphrey, 'The Boy Who Was Bullied' is a celebration of the power of the spirit to triumph over adversity.
