    Abstract
    This article examines the conflict that can sometimes arise between cultural expression and human rights. In engaging cultural violations, this article analyses the kind of discourse facilitated by human rights today by evaluating the approach taken by international human rights and the state when dealing with trokosi practice, a social control mechanism that raises some strong human rights concerns. This begs the question echoed in this article, is there a need to do more when dealing with cultural objectors and do human rights norms require to be reframed in light of cultural diversity
