Friend —
Amid waves of virulent disinformation, continued bans and restrictions on what can be taught in American classrooms, and the repression of artists and activists in authoritarian regimes, we have our work cut out for us in 2022. So, I’m asking you one more time for your support. ([link removed] )
SUPPORT PEN AMERICA BEFORE THE END OF THE YEAR ([link removed])
We’ve accomplished so much this year: resisting book bans, defending free speech in schools and universities, providing a lifeline to imperiled writers worldwide amid a tide of rising authoritarianism.
So please, as we draw together at year’s end, make the most generous gift you can. ([link removed] )
Happy new year from all of us at PEN America.

Dear Friend,
As we close the books on 2021, I need your support to safeguard the future of free speech ([link removed] ) . The sanctity of the First Amendment and the freedom to write.
DEFEND FREE SPEECH ([link removed] )
We’ve seen unprecedented battles this year over what can be taught and read in classrooms. Online mobs are attacking writers with hate and vitriol. Disinformation is threatening our discourse and prolonging the pandemic. The right to protest, dissent, and report the news are in the crosshairs.
So as you settle down to see off the old year and ring in what we hope will be a better 2022, please give what you can. Commit to protecting the freedom to write with us. ([link removed] )
Thanks for your commitment, and for reminding us why we do what we do.
