Transcripts
Out of principle, the Antidote Writers Collective prepares all transcripts by hand. No love for AI here. Attentive and conscientious humans still do better work.
Additionally, this is labor we are willing to do upon request or suggestion, with adequate compensation: we’re an unfunded project so we can be coaxed into selling our labor for money. But! if we like the material we’re transcribing we also accept permission to post as fair reward.

Police Violence from Ferguson to Rio
The police will argue that they have to be heavy-handed with criminals because they’re under attack, because it’s a ‘war.’ But they won’t admit that they’re creating a climate of terror.
