In honor of International Human Rights Day

It’s getting to be the end of the year, and that means lots of end of year lists, lots of looks back at the year, and so on. You’ll probably see some of these around Joost, too. But not today.

Today is International Human Rights Day. It might not be the kind of programming that we talk about all the time, maybe because it’s not always easy to watch. But it’s some of the most important and compelling programming that we have on Joost. Partners like WITNESS, Chat the Planet, CNN, National Geographic, Community Channel, IndieFlix, MTV and more are bringing important shows about human rights to Joost – whether it’s kids from around the world talking about Iraq or first-hand accounts from Eastern Burma.

While you go about your normal online life today, spend 15-20 minutes finding out more about some of the important issues of the year. Check out 10 videos that will change the way you think about human rights – we’ve even added an 11th as a bonus track.
