Dear Common Dreams Readers:
Corporate media puts the interests of the 1% ahead of all of us. That's wrong. The corporate media and the billionaire class have controlled the narrative for way too long.

Please—no amount is too large or too small—pitch in to support our people-powered model and keep Common Dreams strong. Thank you. -- Craig Brown, Co-founder
