Dear Friend of *The Nation*,

We have been here before. Perhaps not at these precise coordinates, but at
other times when democracy seemed to be falling off a cliff.

It’s in these moments that we must remind ourselves that taking a
principled stand often requires running intellectual risks. *The Nation has
sustained itself on the idea that there are always alternatives* that would
make our country and our world a more humane, just, and secure place.

Taking these positions is necessary, but costly. We rely on the additional
support of readers like you to help us challenge those in power and posit
alternative ideas. *Will you make a donation of $35 or more today?*
<http://link.thenation.com/click/9868251.296520/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cudGhlbmF0aW9uLmNvbS9qdW5lLXN1cHBvcnQtbWFzdGVyLw/568ee3ddcbcf4803768b50deC4f302126>

Your support keeps us free of outside interference and any worry about
“offending” advertisers. We go where the truth takes us; where our
interests, passions, and principles drive us; and *where you and our other
loyal readers want and need us to go.*

Throughout our history, *The Nation* has challenged the conventional wisdom
and narrow consensus of our public debate, and repeatedly championed
proposals originally labeled heretical. In 1950, *The Nation* was banned
from school libraries in New York City and Newark, while in Bartlesville,
Oklahoma, a librarian lost her job after a citizens’ committee complained
that by offering our magazine, she’d given shelf space to “subversive
literature.”

But we survived. And I’m confident that America will, too, *so long as its
values and truths are alive in The Nation.* From the sudden firing of FBI
director James Comey, leaving the Trump administration teetering on the
edge of a constitutional crisis, to the cavalcade of lies surrounding
“Trumpcare”; from the shame of America’s incarceration scandal to systemic
voter suppression,* The Nation brings you clear, informed, sustained, and
unbiased reporting. *

Will you make a contribution today to help fund this journalism? These are
the stories we need right now—journalism that challenges and subverts, that
raises new voices and highlights alternative ideas, that keeps one eye on
those in power and the other on the most vulnerable among us.

In many ways, *The Nation* has always been a publication of resistance. Our
proud history shows we’ve been on the right side of many great national
debates, simply by being on the wrong side of what the power structure
wanted us to say or write.

Today, our principled commitment to resist while exploring ways to stay
true to America’s ideals is urgently needed. Your support right now of $35
or more will go toward reporting that amplifies and nurtures the resistance
to Trump we see growing in the streets.

*Please make as generous a gift as you are able. And thank you for being a
member of our community of supporters.*

Sincerely,

Katrina vanden Heuvel
