Watch this great video from Reason Magazine covering HRF's SXSW 2017 programming. Our focus was how information can challenge repression and we were lucky to be joined by freedom champions Rosa Maria Paya Acevedo (Cuba), Roya Mahboob (Afghanistan), AbdAlaziz Alhamza (Syria), and Meron Estefanos (Eritrea). HRF president Thor Halvorssen also speaks about our FlashDrivesforFreeedom.org program.
