Hi there,

I believe that people who are concerned about the climate catastrophe, economic and racial justice and war and peace, are not a fringe minority, not even a silent majority, but the silenced majority—silenced by the corporate media. That's why we have to take the media back—especially now. But we can't do it without your support. 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. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much!

Women Labor Leaders: Some of the most effective labor organizers of this century have been women who have gone into the fields, factories and the offices to educate and empower workers to fight for better wages, working conditions and better lives. There’s a new oral history out about women labor organizers, it’s called “Rocking the Boat” and some of the women whose stories are told in its pages recently gathered at the George Meany Center for Labor Studies to talk about their experiences on the picket line and the union hall as far back as the 1930s and up to today.
