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!

China Invites Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump to Visit Beijing

HeadlineJun 22, 2017

Meanwhile, China’s Foreign Ministry has confirmed that the Chinese government has invited Kushner and his wife, President Trump’s daughter Ivanka Trump, to Beijing later this year for an official visit. The invitation came as The Guardian reported Ivanka Trump’s brand continued to order shoes from a factory cited for labor abuses two months after the company claimed it had halted contracts with the manufacturer. The Guardian report comes as three Chinese activists with the group China Labor Watch continue to be imprisoned after they were arrested while investigating labor conditions at the shoe factory.
