Podcast, Resources, and more! November/December 2023 Looking Ahead to a High-Stakes 2024 PRA is poised to enter 2024 with a focus on disseminating the information and building the partnerships needed to block the advancement of the Right. After a brief hiatus, The Public Eye will return in 2024; our first issue back is set to hit mailboxes and inboxes early in the year. This issue will explore the theme Democracy Under Attack—And How We Fight Back. Make sure you’ve subscribed to The Public Eye to receive your copy! And look forward to a comprehensive report on the State of the Right and accompanying podcast, expected to be released in late January. After a successful first season of our new podcast, Inform Your Resistance, we’re excited to announce the launch of Season Two on January 30th. Follow us wherever you get your podcasts. On a different note, in 2023, PRA began the process of rebranding our organization to better reflect our internal staff and the constituency we serve. We are eager to bring this project to fruition in 2024, and share our new brand with you, our audience, in the new year. As we wind down this tumultuous year, we reflect on the current Israeli attack on Palestine, and continue to stand in solidarity with our partners on the ground. We close this year with fierce determination to remain in struggle for a future where true, inclusive democracy trumps violent authoritarianism, every time. The PRA Team Listen to Season 1!
