Media Shift asks "Can human rights videos go viral?"

Vhub_pilot_sm

Mark Glaser, on the PBS-sponsored blog "Media Shift," recently posted about the new WITNESS "Human Rights Video Hub". Mark asks "so what if you could take videos shot by citizens of human rights violations, such as police brutality or torture, and got them to go viral, bringing more attention to the crimes?" He quotes from a couple of my posts on this subject, as well as gets comments from Gillian Caldwell and Tina Gongsakdi of WITNESS, and Rebecca MacKinnon, co-founder of Global Voices.

Thanks, Mark!
