This space is dedicated to the proposition that we need to know the history of the struggles on the left and of earlier progressive movements here and world-wide. If we can learn from the mistakes made in the past (as well as what went right) we can move forward in the future to create a more just and equitable society. We will be reviewing books, CDs, and movies we believe everyone needs to read, hear and look at as well as making commentary from time to time. Greg Green, site manager

This
week: Your donation to Chelsea's defense goes twice as far
Your donation to Chelsea's legal defense will go twice as far
this week!
An anonymous supporter has issued a grant
challenge that will effectively double your contribution today.
Your $50 will now be $100, your
$100 now $200---up to $5,000!
With your generosity, we'll be able to meet Pentagon Papers whistleblower Daniel
Ellsberg's goal of $100,000 by Sept 1st for Chelsea Manning's legal appeals. Over 750 have stepped up, providing Chelsea with $72,000 in the last
few weeks (thank you)! Can you help us raise the remaining
$28,000? "Unless Manning’s conviction is overturned in appeals, Snowden and many
other whistle-blowers, today and in the future, will face a similar fate. And
with them will perish one of the most critical lifelines for our democracy.
But you can join me in fighting back. I’m asking you to do it for
Chelsea, to do it for Snowden, and to do it because it’s the right thing to do
to preserve our democracy. We can only win this great struggle with your help. Please contribute to help us fund Chelsea’s legal appeals
today. It’s time we band together on the right side of history once
again."
