My time at Occupy DC on this trip will add up to me having spent 15 of the past 31 days at occupied territories. That's a lifestyle change for me, but it's been worth it, to see the revolution happening, to meet the mostly young people who are doing it so damned well.
Tonight I'll be interviewing Glenn Greenwald. His new book, Freedom and Justice for Some, promises to add profoundly important grist to the conversation on what the 99% at the occupied territories will be doing-- fighting a system that now allows the elites to escape punishment for crimes. I hope to have the podcast up tonight.
Fighting takes Resources.
My last trip to Occupy Philly, I brought sweaters, sweats, shoes-- one more donation. The Occupy movement is seeing a lot of donations. That's great. Opednews also needs donations for it to thrive.We're just $960 short of making budget this month. Can you help us get there.
Our budget is a pittance compared to other progressive sites. We do it with a great volunteer team and a very frugal approach to running things, aiming for maximal efficiency.
But we really do have to meet our minimal budget goal each month. I just learned that we received a $400 donation-- our biggest this month. That helped to get us withing final range. We can do this with your help.
If you believe that Opednews is a part of the good, casting light in the darkness, supporting activism and the people who are activists, supporting the 99%. If you believe that Opednews is dedicated to protecting progressive values and is fighting for them, then please, make a donation today, so we can close out the month in the black. Click here to donate to Opednews.com today. We're so close. Help us make it happen.
