We are taking a break from fundraising. Mostly due to mental exhaustion.
We ended up over $5,000 lower this month than we have been in any of the of the previous 3 months. At the same time we saw an increase of roughly 25% in total donations. So more donors, less money.
We think the 5K went to democratic political campaigns instead of RSN this month. So in effect RSN donated 5K to the democrats, like it or not.
To everyone who came through for "Reader Supported News" this very challenging month - Thank You!
In peace and solidarity.

Amy Goodman and Denis Moynihan, Democracy Now!
Excerpt: "Grass-roots organizing, the hard work of building movements, can be grueling. Pay is often low or nonexistent. Success is never assured. As Martin Luther King Jr. said, 'The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice.' But it doesn't bend itself."

Excerpt: "After days of protests, US authorities released on Friday two videos showing police fatally shooting an unarmed black man in California, but the low-quality footage, much of it without sound, was not likely to pacify outrage over the killing of yet another African American at the hands of officers."
