SUBTITLED VIDEOS

SUBTITLED VIDEOS

hi folks :) 
Subtitling is one way for more folks to access video & film. It certainly helps me understand things better, it makes it possible for others to participate in an otherwise *entirely* alienating & inaccessible event. And while subtitling is not the be-all end-all, but one piece of the puzzle, i think the bulk of us are looking towards greater inclusivity, wider community nets, empowerment, involvement, liberation, yes? Yes. And every bit helps.
Check out this post from a friend on why this is so important:
http://arfism.tumblr.com/post/2351225001/please-subtitle-your-work
 
A friend turned me on to this website called Universal Subtitles, where you can take pretty well any video and subtitle it in many languages. i am currently limited to subtitling in english, but if you are able, please subtitle any of these in additional languages! This is yet another fabulous tool for increasing accessibility and community!!

http://universalsubtitles.org/en/


i'm going to be adding to this post as i subtitle and tweak other people's subtitles, so stay tuned!


As well, im going to have a list of projects on the go, and things id like to subtitle. If youve got time, add to them! Make your own (thats one of the great things about the program, you can build on other peoples work)

Toni Morrison Takes White Supremacy To Task
http://www.universalsubtitles.org/en-gb/videos/Xi9b9zco2AtT/url/172081/


Few intellectuals have waged a public battle against white supremacy and patriarchy like Toni Morrison. Morrison has both examined and challenged systems of domination throughout her intellectual life. With her novels, essays, and interviews she has taken critical looks at the interlocking systems of race and gender oppression. In this interview she is asked by PBS's Charlie Rose what it is like for her to encounter racism. In true Morrison fashion she turns the question on its head, and places the onus for explaining racism back into the hands of White people. She asks Rose what he thinks of racism, why do Whites hold onto, and what are they going to do about it ending it. She rejects the notion that racism is simply something that Black people must grapple with, insisting, demanding, that White people also grapple with it. Fearless. Brilliant. Powerful.

Full Interview: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=2790851242454573240#docid=4593061045  i am working on subtitling the whole video... stay tuned!

Murdered Women, Missing Justice
Every week since the beginning of the Sham Missing Women's Inquiry, the Women's Memorial March Committee has been rallying to denounce the disrespect and injustice happening inside. Dozens of DTES, Aboriginal, and Women's organizations were shut out from participating in the Inquiry. Now we are hearing numerous stories, directly and as reported in the media, of family members outrage and anger and frustration with this inquiry as there are no answers, no apologies, and authorities are just protecting themselves and each other.

Powerful documentary - Transgender women from TGI Justice speak out about their experience with the Prison Industrial Complex. http://www.tgijp.org
During the Prison Industrial Complex (PIC) training series, members learned about the politics of prisons in the U.S., honed their public speaking and leadership skills, and shared their own personal thoughts and experiences about the Prison Industrial Complex.

Resisting Gender Violence Without Cops or Prisons
--An interview with author Victoria Law 

http://www.universalsubtitles.org/en/videos/oyZy7fLbOH7l/info/


Aside from the piece at 9:40 where she says
 
"...recognizing that it's not just women who face violence. Um, so they actually started doing trainings for, um, transgender people,..."


(which clearly indicates a breakdown in the reality that many transgender people ARE women, ugh! Maybe just an unfortunate edit, but this is such a standard thing, the assumption that we're talking about cis women when we speak about violence against women, that i felt it was necessary to make note) this is a good look into the issues around relying on police to deal with abuse/violence in certain communities.

From January 4, 2008, Prado Gómez talks about trans men taking responsibility (or not) for fucked up behaviour, and the kinds of communities we want to be creating.


Prado Gómez is the Director of Proyecto ContraSIDA Por Vida (PCPV), a community building organization by and for the queer Latina/o community in San Francisco's Mission District. Over the last 15 years he also has worked with youth (queer youth of color, youth of color and young women), using writing and theater as a tool for self expression and social change. Prado is a Mestizo (Chicano, Apache, Hopi) activist, parent, singer and husband. He dedicates his time to sharing knowledge in an effort to promote holistic health and wellness, especially in and for transgender communities of color through his work at Proyecto, as a trainer with the Harm Reduction Coalition and Training Institute and with his children.

Geronimo E-KIA, a poem by the 1491s
Accompanying music by A Tribe Called Red

On May 1st around 3:30pm President Obama received a message from a Navy SEAL saying "Geronimo- E KIA" the code meaning Osama bin Laden is dead. We humbly disagree.

Geronimo was a product of his environment. A human. One with flaws. One with enough history that the person charged with defining who he is can shape the narrative any which way he likes. People chase him today, just as they did then. His story, or peoples versions of it, lead us to this point where we are today. But this poem isn't about Geronimo is it?

"Every Ho I Know Says So"
a response to the total lack of accessible online resources for people looking for advice on how to be a good date or lover or partner to a sex worker. We want to support our lovers to continue unlearning the internalized stigma against sex workers, especially in intimate relationships. We think that sex workers themselves have valuable advice and direction to give to people who get into intimate relationships with us. This is the direct message we want to give to our lovers: "We hope that this video is useful to you in your journey to becoming a sex worker-positive and supportive lover and person in the community!!! By continuing to work on your attitudes about our work and educating yourself, you are showing us that you care. We love you!"
