Hi there,

This month, Democracy Now! marks 29 years of fearless independent journalism. Presidents have come, gone and come back again, but Democracy Now! remains, playing the same critical role in our democracy: shining a spotlight on corporate and government abuses of power and raising up the voices of scholars, advocates, scientists, activists, artists and ordinary people working for a more peaceful and just world. If our journalism is important to you, please donate today in honor of our 29th anniversary. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

      As Democracy Now! reported yesterday, a group known as the Biotic Baking Brigade hit Chevron CEO Ken Derr in the face this Wednesday with three pies in protest for his company’s involvement in the killing of activists in Nigeria, as well as for polluting California’s northern coast. The brigade has targeted numerous other “corporate bad guys,” including the CEO’s of bioengineering companies Monsanto and Novartis, economist Milton Friedman and San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown. For that “pieing,” three members of the brigade are now serving a six-month prison sentence.
