Human rights activists from around the world are gathering in Georgia this week. The Carter Center in Atlanta is hosting a conference aimed at focusing support for international political, economic, social and cultural rights in the administration of President-elect Barack Obama. Former President Carter told about 50 conference delegates today that the U.S. image has been tarnished over the past seven years in the name of fighting terrorism. Carter said he believes the Obama administration "will be looking to restore the reputation of my country."
