Hi there,

We need independent media more than ever. When we cover war and peace, we’re not brought to you by the weapons manufacturers. When we cover the climate catastrophe, we’re not brought to you by the oil, gas and coal companies. When we cover inequality, we’re not brought to you by the banks and other financial institutions. We’re brought to you by you, the listener, the reader and the viewer. If you want Democracy Now! to keep bringing you the stories that matter most, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much!

    Top aides to President Clinton — National Security Adviser Sandy Berger, Defense Security William Cohen, and Secretary of State Madeleine Albright — head to Columbus, Ohio this week to rally support for military action. Meanwhile, people all over the country are organizing protests against U.S. military aggression. We’ll talk to three grassroots peace groups in St. Louis, North Carolina, and Wisconsin about what actions they’re taking to make their opposition heard.
