t r u t h o u t | Two months ago, I embarked on a leave of absence from my position as Truthout's executive director, in order to write a book.
The next day, I woke up - and suddenly, I was in the reader's seat, looking at Truthout from the other "side" of the screen. For the first time since joining the Truthout team, I was able to take a step back from the bustle and say, "Wow, this is great stuff!"
Amid an internet infested with info-bites, ads and videos of newborn bunnies chasing a hippopotamus (branded as news), it's always a relief when Truthout's daily newsletter pops up in my inbox. I know I'll come away informed - and full of new thoughts and new questions. (Don't get me wrong... I love a good hippo video, but not when it replaces coverage of drone strikes, threats to Social Security or the fate of democracy.) What's more, Truthout spreads the awareness and insight that propel us to strive for social justice, in both thought and action.
If you can support Truthout with a tax-deductible donation of $5 or more, you'll be helping to preserve this rare space for the kind of thought that changes the world.
Now is the time: We didn't make our fundraising goal in our last drive, so this is a crucial effort to sustain the organization. Please make a contribution of any amount today.
