YouTube takeover: James Nachtwey's video playlist

From the TED Prize blog:

Today, James Nachtwey is the guest editor of the YouTube homepage. Along with the video of his photographs of XDR-TB and a special message from James to YouTube users, James has "selected compelling examples from other YouTube users that exhibit the power of film to relate a story and spread the word. These YouTube users -- by turning their cameras on subjects like the conflict in Africa, the human rights violations in Myanmar, and the HIV crisis in rural America -- are following Nachtwey’s lead and, ultimately, are changing the world through the force of their efforts and film-making expertise."

To find 3 quick ways to end TB, visit XDRTB.org.
