***********************

People For Supporter,

People For the American Way has been in the news recently and for good
reason. Our team of dogged reporters at Right Wing Watch received high
praise from Rachel Maddow on her show just this past week. Maddow endorsed
our work to track and expose far-right extremism as a “fire alarm system
for the whole country” and a “great public service.”

I couldn’t agree more – or be prouder of them.

All you have to do is watch the news to see the deadly consequences of
extremists pushing bigotry, conspiracy theories, and other undemocratic
ideologies into Americans’ homes. Right Wing Watch’s work to document the
Far Right’s actions and strategies is urgently necessary — as are People
For’s efforts to disrupt those plans.

Photo Caption: Racist, antisemitic, misogynist, Nick Fuentes, as
documented by PFAW’s Right Wing Watch, was cited and further exposed on
MSNBC’s “The Rachel Maddow Show” last week. Fuentes also recently dined
with former President Donald Trump.

The rampant hatred being spewed by these extremists is leading to violence
across the country.

I am distressed by the Far Right’s push to focus on our differences, and
their efforts to alienate and demonize members of the Jewish community,
the LGBTQ community, and those who are migrants. These are efforts to
undermine our humanity. I’ve seen it before - I dropped out of college to
fight fascism in World War II and I’m not going to let it gain a foothold
here.

We know that words have power. I am both saddened and angry that once
again, demonizing language is being used to inflame our divisions, leading
to increasing acts of violence. And too many public officials are
unwilling to take a stand against it.

The team at People For and Right Wing Watch will never back down in our
efforts to shine a light on the people perpetuating bigotry and
discrimination, because hate is not the American Way.

Thank you, also, for recognizing that our country is enriched by our
beautiful mixture of cultures and diverse backgrounds — and for supporting

I turned 100 this year, but I am not taking a break yet. I have made a
lifetime commitment to not letting these extremists gain any more ground.
Thank you for being in this fight with me. I, like you, am confident that
together, we can win.

Your friend,

Norman Lear
