**Are you a member of the 1%?**

Did you know that less than one out of a hundred Common Dreams readers
actually donate to support our mission and independent journalism?

It's an unfortunate fact, but that's what we've learned. We understand
not everyone can afford to give, that's why Common Dreams will always be
free and open to all. But for those who are able to give a gift-even
just a tiny donation goes a long way-your support makes our work
possible.

If you haven't already, please join the 1% today

by supporting Common Dreams.
