Friend, throughout Season 2 of In the Dark, you've heard me ask for your support. Today, I want you to hear directly from other listeners who decided to donate in the past few days. Our work is only possible because of their critical support.
“I decided to donate to In the Dark when I started the final episode of Season 2, where Madeleine finally speaks with Curtis Flowers. I am moved to tears at the thought that these two will finally speak, after all these years, and after justice has finally, finally, been done for Curtis. It is incredible what this podcast has done in the service of revealing the great injustices that have been done in this case, and I hope they can continue to do so for other cases.”
- Meara from Washington, D.C.
“I've never donated to a podcast before, but I feel like your work is very important. I got emotional listening to your interview with Curtis. Sadly, his story is common, and I think that you all did a wonderful job showing this injustice while portraying Curtis as an extremely resilient individual instead of as a victim. Thank you so much for doing this work and for the role you played in helping get real justice for Curtis. I’m sure Lola is smiling down on all of you.”
- Querida from California
“As a former journalist, I recognize the time and effort that goes into this type of work. In the Dark is investigative journalism at its finest.”
- Jessica from Washington
“This is the first time I've ever donated to public radio but after listening to the last episode of In the Dark season 2 with Curtis Flowers I just had to. This podcast powerfully demonstrates the impact of public radio and thanks to the tenacity and diligence of the In the Dark team an innocent man is free.”
- Caroline from New York
“Amazing! Fantastic investigative journalism, to the likes of which we rarely see these days. Beautifully done and not sensationalized. Things are finally right for a lovely family.”
- Tim from Ontario, Canada
“I have listened to public radio for many years yet have never donated any money – until now. I'm so happy that Mr. Flowers is finally free. His story struck a chord in me because we are around the same age. Mr. Flowers's story was not flashy – it was amazing, consistent, long-term, and relentless investigative reporting. This type of journalism doesn't happen anywhere else.”
- Robyn from South Carolina
“Journalism that has the power to change lives.”
- Sam from the United Kingdom
I am so humbled by the support of our listeners and donors. Although thousands of people have chipped in during Season 2, ultimately only a small fraction – less than 1% – of our listeners have donated.
