t r u t h o u t | It's hard not to be embarrassed by my country right now.

As a British citizen, I deplore the detainment of journalist Glenn Greenwal=
d's partner at Heathrow airport, and the UK government's destruction of har=
d drives at The Guardian newspaper's London offices. Not for the first time=
, I'm ashamed of my country's government.

Then again, it's hard to find a government not disgracing the people it cla=
ims to represent with oppressive policies, from Russia's anti-LGBT laws to =
the military's massacres in Egypt, not to mention the United States' own ra=
cist drug war and system of mass incarceration.

Fortunately, there are people who live in all these countries who inspire h=
ope with their resistance and dissent. Truthout exists to inspire and infor=
m those people, and to tell their stories as they strive for a better world=
.

We know our readers are those kind of people, too: people who see past bord=
ers, who recognize the shared humanity of all your global neighbors. Will y=
ou make a tax-deductible donation to Truthout tonight, to enable us to keep=
 bringing you stories of injustice and struggle from around the world?
