Hi there,

The job of a journalist is to go to where the silence is — especially when those in power seek to silence voices that question or challenge power. That is what we do at Democracy Now! day in and day out, and we're able to do it because of financial support from people like you — people who trust and depend on our independent reporting. If you believe that freedom of speech and freedom of the press are essential to the functioning of a democratic society, please donate today. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations made today will be DOUBLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $30. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Senior at Columbia University, where she says she was raped by a fellow student in August 2012. For her senior thesis project, she launched an endurance performance art piece in which she is carrying around a twin-size dorm room mattress for as long as her rapist remains on campus. She was part of a federal complaint last year challenging Columbia’s handling of rape cases.
