Why I’m giving money to two wonderful groups bringing international perspectives to American audiences:
Link TV – Global Pulse! A great series, showcasing TV from around the world. Check out the latest – Must-Watch 5 minutes on George Bush’s legacy as seen by the rest of the world! Like it? Great. It costs money to make – go support it!
Next, Global Voices. Why? My latest reason is this wonderfully silly story about a Costa Rican collaborative Christmas video, reminding us that not all world news is depressing. The opening line sets the tone: “Costa Rican online collective nosedecirlaerre.com which translates into ‘I can´t pronounce the R’…”
Plus what other truly worthy nonprofit would dare use a LOLcat to ask for your money? Support Global Voices here!
Full Disclosure – I have friends working at both these great organizations. But that’s why I know about them, not why I donate. I donate because the work is terrific.
