www.inequalitymedia.org [www.inequalitymedia.org]Dear John,
As the year comes to a close, I’ve heard from many of you that you’re feeling discouraged and hopeless about our future.
Of course, that is totally understandable.
But here’s the thing: the forces undermining our democracy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. We must not let them.
The moneyed interests have lobbyists. They have media megaphones.
And they have an even more powerful weapon — one that’s harder to spot but incredibly effective: Cynicism.
Our latest video explains how we can overcome cynicism and find the courage to keep fighting for a better future. [[link removed]]

Organizers have changed this nation many, many times for the better.
We secured labor rights, civil rights, women's rights, and LGBTQ rights. Much of what we take for granted today — Social Security, Medicare, national parks, the 40-hour workweek, even interstate highways — were the results of hard-fought battles.
On their own, these wins may seem small. But history proves that major change comes through countless small victories won over many years by people who refuse to back down.
Over time, the impossible becomes possible.
Those who want you to believe that change is not possible are counting on you to forget that history and give up.
Don’t.
Thanks for watching,
Robert Reich
