Re: Iran opportunity

Thanks for getting in touch. I'm definitely interested in discussing it; I'd really like to be able to commit all of my time to this sort of activism and have been working on trying to develop new methods by which to best make use of the internet and information age dynamics in general in such a way as to more efficiently channel the efforts and intent of those individuals who want to promote liberty and transparency, either for themselves or for others. I've worked as a journalist and commentator all of my life and have been fortunate enough to have been heavily involved in Anonymous such that I've learned a great deal about the subject.

Hi Barrett,

This is ivorybill at DailyKos. I do a lot of work in the Middle East with an organization called Heartland Alliance - including work on gender-based violence, torture treatment, etc. A couple of our projects are not listed on our website. However, here's a sense of some of the work we do:

and here's a diary:

I love the work you do and might want to discuss a current funding opportunity with you w/r/t the above named country. Better to do this by phone as I don't know who's reading your email. Would you be interested in a phone call sometime tomorrow? I can also be reached at sportman (at) heartlandalliance.org

Best regards,

Scott
