t r u t h o u t | It's not just the onset of winter here in Chicago, too co=
ld and too soon, that's getting me down. It's not just the sun setting too =
early in the afternoon.
As we wait for news of the latest miscarriage of justice or new grim detail=
s about the impact of climate change, it can be easy to lose sight of hope.=
With a few exceptions, the recent midterm election results didn't provide =
much reason for it. The strangling influence of corporate money in politics=
seems more powerful than ever, there's a Republican resurgence (I still ca=
n't bring myself to say "Illinois Governor Bruce Rauner" out loud), and mea=
nwhile too many Democrats are busy doing their best impression of Republica=
ns.
For all the dark stories that Truthout covers, however, we also find the gl=
immers of hope. Ordinary people, young and old, are fighting back against i=
njustice and inequality, militarism and systematic discrimination, environm=
ental ruin and economic greed. These are the people who helped push Preside=
nt Obama into action around immigration reform, and these are the people wh=
o will keep demanding more. My hope lies in these fearless people and the w=
ork they do.
There's not a lot of media outlets covering this work. Truthout urgently ne=
eds your help to keep doing it. I won't sugarcoat this: If we don't raise t=
he $45,000 more we need by the end of this campaign, we won't be able to ma=
intain the same level of service we provide. Our fundraising drive has star=
ted very slowly. Can you chip in today to turn it around?
