Hi there,

I believe that people who are concerned about war and peace, democracy, the climate catastrophe, and economic and racial justice, are not a fringe minority, not even a silent majority, but the silenced majority—silenced by the corporate media. But we can't do it without your support. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations made today will be TRIPLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $45. 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!
