A large part of the Anti-racism committee will be addressing consequences of racism within our society. We will be in various communities of color in the metro Atlanta area to hear what the needs of people affected by racism are. We know racism is rampant globally, within the US, in Atlanta, within Occupy and OA. We seek to change that. The time…[Read more]

I am not sure why I should invest time on this as opposed to other things. The transcriptions are there, albeit imperfect, for those that need that resource, but especially given that, I don’t see it worth a lot […]

YouTube’s transcription is *possible*, we already have YouTube channels and can take volunteers to clean up the transcriptions and it will cost no money. Those may be its sole virtues, but they are important […]

Apparently you can get an automatic transcription for captioning on YouTube, which someone can then go in and clean up. This means that hearing impaired folks can follow it, and that people can get translations. […]
