Challenge

From Tulsa to Hiroshima, from Auschwitz to the Trail of Tears, the scenes of death and destruction are the same. The root causes of these atrocities are the same too: cultures of violence fueling systems of oppression. What can the people do to reclaim their rightful democratic power when corrupt governments fail to honor the contracts that ensure we live in a civil society that has a sustainable future?

Long-Term Impact

As the country goes through another racial reckoning, we feel it is important also to draw attention to the legacy and the lies on which the country was founded. We will continue to promote stories of human development, social justice, and arts and culture, thinking of ways to bring news of solidarity, resistance, and resilience to the main stage. Your support ensures these important stories can be shared.
