 What’s their vision? Writing this email is hard - the vision laid out for us by the far right-wing conspirators, who now have full control over the Republican party, is just depressing. Empowered by unlimited financing from billionaires, they’re working to roll back 100 years of social progress. They strive to turn health, education, nature and even freedom into commodities - items to be hoarded by the privileged few. While Democrats continue to undermine each other and answer this assault with meek compromises, there is another force growing in numbers, with history on its side - YOU! We got a glimpse of what real people power can achieve this fall, when nonviolent protesters took to the streets and parks across the country. They reignited a suppressed political language with their bodies, their smart phones and their tents. They exposed the truth - deep economic inequality infects every single problem we face as a society and creates almost insurmountable imbalances of power. The corporate mass media may proliferate the myth that the spirit that brought masses of protesters into the street has been broken, or that a few gestures by those in power will appease those who see injustice all around them. But the corporate media is lying … again. We need your support to help cultivate the powerful ideas that fuel these protests and inspire action. We need your support today to continue to elevate a different moral vision. They have the money on their side, but we have the truth. With the support of our growing community of readers, we can challenge the billionaires’ message - and bring about the future we all know is possible. In order to meet our budget, we must raise $42,000 more during this fundraiser. Can you help us get there by making a tax-deductible donation to Truthout today?
