Friend,

If the COVID-19 pandemic has shown us anything, it's that we are
certainly not "all in this together."

If we were, everyone would be wearing masks to protect those around
them.

If we were, people wouldn't be facing unemployment, eviction, or loss of
healthcare through no fault of their own.

If we were, we wouldn't see billionaire wealth explode by more than $1
trillion as millions suffer and schools starve for basic resources.

If we were, Congress would have approved $2,000 monthly stimulus checks
in June, not one-time $600 checks forced through after months of cruel
delay.

If we were, we would be using this crisis as an opportunity to pass
Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, and a $15 federal minimum wage with
added hazard pay for frontline workers.

And, if we were, poor countries wouldn't be left out as the world's
richest nations snap up a majority of the vaccine shots.

So we are not all in this together—but we should be. Common Dreams is a
news outlet that understands this—and we are focused on uncovering how
injustice is playing out as we highlight the voices of those working
toward a better vision for our future.

all in this together. The effort that we call Common Dreams cannot
survive without your support. So, please Friend,
pitch in whatever you can so we can reach our critical year-end goal.
