Dear Green American, "We’re stronger together." "United we stand, divided we fall." When it comes to hardships, many of us take comfort and heartily believe these expressions. But when it comes to the economy, capitalism itself, it’s every person for themselves, let the free market decide, and pull yourself up by your bootstraps. This kind of thinking costs us, a lot. Individualism and racism cost us a lot. Learn about the true cost of racism for us all in our newest magazine issue: Divided, We Fall. Did you know Green America publishes a quarterly magazine? Our members say it is their favorite benefit! Donate today to support our work to make a just, inclusive economy, one that works for all, and get a one-year subscription to our Green American magazine, including this issue Divided, We Fall. Plus we'll thank you with a free "I am a Green American" compact tote — made from 100% recycled water bottles. Here are a few articles from Divided, We Fall you don't want to miss: - How Racism Hurts the U.S. Economy: There is no price tag for racism—it is a scourge that costs lives.
