I've had the honor and privilege to perform some transcription work for Rightswire. The work has been inspiring as I'm able to use my computer skills to help bring interviews of remarkable human rights advocates to a wider audience. The best part of the process is actually listening to activists tell their story and hear their suggestions about how to get involved. Rightswire is an organization with a genuinely worthwhile mission; one that will help change our country for the better, faster.
