Hi there,

The media can be the greatest force for peace on Earth. Instead, all too often, it’s wielded as a weapon of war. That's why we have to take the media back. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations made today will be DOUBLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $30. With your contribution, we can continue to go to where the silence is, to bring you the voices of the silenced majority – those calling for peace in a time of war, demanding action on the climate catastrophe and advocating for racial and economic justice. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much!

Amy Goodman interviews Cecile Richards of the Texas Freedom Network. Richards, head of The Texas Freedom Network, opposes the Christian Coalition as it targets public school systems and pushes its political agenda into local school boards. The Christian Coalition is known to use stealth candidates. Large right wing organizations with very large annual budgets such as The Eagle Forum, The American Family Association and The Concerned Women of America have also become very focused on electoral politics. These groups actively field candidates with right wing views on abortion, gays and education. AFA tried unsuccessfully to put gay newspaper, Texas Triangle, out of business.
