Hi there,

From our first broadcast nearly 30 years ago, Democracy Now! has always been fiercely independent. Over these last 3 decades, our daily global news hour has been a source of truth in a media landscape all too often bought by commercial interests. Can you start a monthly donation? Monthly donations are the lifeblood of Democracy Now!.Thanks to a group of generous donors, all monthly donations started today will be DOUBLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $30. If you believe that freedom of speech and freedom of the press are essential to the functioning of a democratic society, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Democracy Now!

Dean Hammer

Father and member of the Plowshares 8. On Thanksgiving Day, November 24, 1983 as part of the Griffis Plowshares he entered Griffiss Air Force Base in Rome, NY. They hammered and poured blood on a B-52 bomber converted to carry cruise missiles as well as on B-52 engines. They also left at the site of their witness a written indictment of Griffiss Air Force Base and the U.S. Government pointing to the war crimes of preparing for nuclear war and depicting how the new state religion of “nuclearism” denies constitutional rights and punishes acts of conscience.
