Life takes place through series of causes and effects. For every decision made, a consequence occurs, either good or bad. In essence, history is an effect, and the consequences of people’s decisions are the cause. Many would say that death is the ultimate consequence.

A defining cause of human rights violations across the world, identity has precipitated acts of violence in the name of intolerance in many different contexts.
