Moral Watchdogs
My short film, Moral Watchdogs, showcases two different mediums. The majority of my video features interviews with three of my high school English teachers, Adam Wolfsdorf, Dean Bevilacqua, and Dr. Michael Dealy. These interviews are segregated by extremely short stop-motion pieces, featuring my best friend #39;s younger sister, Crystal. In four of Crystal #39;s interruptions, she is holding up a general question about book censorship that the teachers answer. However, the part of this video that I take great pride in, is a ten second, stop-motion montage of Crystal interacting with a conveyor belt of books that have been challenged and/or banned in the US I thought long and hard about how I was going to make this video. After many different ideas, I decided to utilize people that I see five times a week, who would definitely have more insight on the topic of book censorship than I do. I asked the teachers similar questions, and allowed them to express their opinions freely. I found that some of their opinions were very similar, while some varied. Then, once I had watched the interviews at home and decided what I could use, Crystal and her older sister came over. I set up a bed sheet and my camera, and took a total of 160 pictures with their patience and assistance. I could not have made this video without my teachers and friends giving me their time and thought, and I am very thankful to them and everyone who views this film.From:soclosetocomedyViews:5 0ratingsTime:04:02More inFilm Animation

In all her work, Professor Manji shows us how to develop "moral courage," the willingness to speak up when everyone else wants to shut you up.

In the best spirit of higher education, the Moral Courage Project teaches that rights come with responsibilities, that we are citizens before we are members of mere tribes, and that meaningful diversity embraces different ideas and not just identities.From:CollegesOntario1Views:2 0ratingsTime:01:36More inEducation

Anonymous Call for you all by tyler
Music by: http://www.youtube.com Thanks! Transcript***** Greetings World. We are Anonymous. Remember, Remember, the 5th of November, Project Mayhem will see TYLER out of beta testing. For those whom remain unaware... We intend to leak it all! Knowledge is free. We are compelled to share it before we cannot! TYLER is a highly distributed and decentralized Wiki pedia style, peer to peer database structured in such fashion it is impregnable to censorship. Governments are very much aware of this effort and they are afraid. There exists no means by which Tyler can be turned off and Tyler has only one purpose, to offer an unmutable, anonymous platform for all, anyone of us, to expose and share evidences of illegality, corruption, fraud and wrong-doings anywhere. Whether local, national or globally, those elitist politicians, so-called representatives and lobbyist leaders who have betrayed us, their fellow travelers, they all know exactly what they have done. We trusted them to protect us and they do not! Very soon we all will be privy to such deeds. TYLER has already drawn an unprecedented number of the most talented and determined hackers, coders, programmers and users, compiling its structure from scratch. Employing the knowledge gained from past experiences, lessons learned from the likes of Freenet, TORe, GaNU net, e-Mule, Bit Torrent, I2P, Tribler, wikileaks and countless related projects... however, the need for more voices is great. Consider this an immediate call to action ...From:rene salazarViews:43 5ratingsTime:03:37More inScience Technology
