A Thank You and a Message of Hope
Dear Portside reader,
This is a very short Thank You to everyone who contributed to the Portside fund appeal. And a message to all our readers.
Where do we hope to go in the coming year? We hope to begin to turn vision into reality. To not only turn the page, but to begin a new chapter. To build on the exciting storylines written by millions of people in the streets and the voting booths. We know that this is a chapter that we can only write together.
What threats will we be alert to in the coming year? That defeating Trump is only a step to defeating Trumpism. That reactionary forces that suffer defeat become more extreme. That bigotry becomes more brazen. That what's in the rear view mirror still has teeth.
Thanks to your help we'll be here whatever twists and turns we encounter. Thank you for helping us to be with you for another year.
And if you meant to contribute but never did, here is where you can still do it.
Signed,
The entire Portside crew
