Hello Friend,
The challenges facing our
country are daunting right now. But so is our hope, so is our
energy, so is our vision, and so too, is our conviction that together,
we can create a peaceful, just, green future we all
deserve.
On July 4th we choose to honor all
who have sacrificed to build the promise of real democracy, to extend
it to all - and to overcome the unconscionable legacy of slavery and
Indigenous genocide that tragically lives on.
It takes courage to struggle for
this more perfect union.
It takes courage for 99% of us to
survive in today's 1% world.
It takes day-in, day-out courage to
fight the status quo and the voices of disempowerment.
And it takes a special kind of
courage—and vision—to support a political party founded on the
principle that “business as usual” is unacceptable, unjust and
unsurvivable.
We need a country and a world that works for us
all.
Change must come. Now.
Will
you chip in $20.19 or $51.00 to help us bring a world that works for
us all?
The Green Party is alive and well
because of everyone who gives their dollars and volunteer hours. Every
donation helps us support candidates and local parties that are
working everyday to bring change.
Like every other fed up, “can’t be
bought”, moral person who has walked this walk before us—Sojourner
Truth, Mother Jones, Frances Perkins, Rosa Parks, Rev. Martin Luther
King, Cesar Chavez, Ralph Nader, Bishop Desmond Tutu, Kenya's Wangari
Maathai and so many others--we know that no force on earth can stop a
revolution whose time has come.
You
can help even more with your monthly donation of $10, $15 or
more. Every donation - even
$5 or $7 a month - gets us closer to the society we want to
see.
Today, as many of us enjoy a day of
picnics, family and friends, fireworks, and parades, we wanted to stop
for a second and thank YOU for your courage and ongoing
support.
Before the last picnic table is
cleared and the final frisbee is caught, we'll be hard at work again,
racing against time to overturn a political system that is throwing us
all under the bus, and that is unraveling before our eyes.
We are desperate for new policies
that put people and the environment first... that create an economy
99% of us can thrive in... and that won't tolerate racism or
kidnapping children or homophobia or climate destruction or wars for
oil in any form.
We don’t take corporate money. That’s
why your donation of any amount today will help us create a world for
everyone.
This July 4th, may we all enjoy
ourselves (and reflect on standing on stolen land) and be renewed in
our courage to create an America that’s truly for all of us… a renewed
society where justice from sea to shining sea rings out across an
abundant, beautiful, restored Gaia mother earth, where people, planet
and peace prevail.
We hope to see you at the Annual
meeting in Salem, MA in a couple of weeks.
Happy 4th!
