Hi there,

In this chaotic news cycle it may be tempting to tune out, but we hope you won’t—only an informed and engaged public can defend democracy. In these times of deep political polarization we need news that goes beyond play-by-play headlines, news that goes to the heart of each story by asking people to tell their own stories of abuses of power and injustice in their own words. If our journalism is important to you, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

HeadlineDec 28, 2015

It’s the second assault in days after Boko Haram invaded a village on Christmas, killing at least 14 people. The attack came just after Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari said Nigeria has “technically won the war” against Boko Haram.
