CounterCurrents: The Levee could break! Countercurrents needs more of your kindness

Dear Friend of Countercurrents.org,

Is humanity driven by love, kindness, compassion, trust and a sense of communal sharing or are we a species which predates on the weaker sections of the society?  A fact, 62 persons of this planet own as much wealth as half of the humanity!  So, are we selfish creatures who allow only the fittest to survive? I don’t believe it. We are kind, loving and caring. Human nature has been turned upside down by predatory capitalism. The system has been hijacked. We and our children are taught that it is the natural state of affairs. The mass media and our education system are cahoots in this deception. How do we challenge it? Build our own educational system, build our own media which teach the values of living earth. Countercurrents.org is such an effort. As I wrote in the last news letter, we are the new rainbow warriors in the fight against forces of death. Over 14 years of hard work, we’ve built a small levee against the flood waters that is rushing in with death and destructi
on.
We’ve to keep it standing. But it is an enormous task. 

After my call went out last week seeking financial support to sustain countercurrents.org I saw lots of love, sharing and kindness. Thank you all who came forward to sustain Countercurrents. We managed to raise about Rs 4 lakh ($ 7000). We have not yet reached the half way mark.  For the last few days the contributions have dried up. That’s worrying. That’s why I’m writing again. Without your support this levee will not stand. The flood waters of capitalist destruction will wash it away. Let’s all join together and strengthen it.  Yes, we need a biodiversity of resistance. We are the resistance fighters who have to protect our planet for the future generations. 

Our subscription amount is Rs 1000 or $50.  Do come forward and strengthen Countercurrents.
