[Everyone] Ideas to Fight the Right: #GivingTuesday Appeal for Haymarket Books

[Chris Solidarity]

Dear all,

I'm writing to you today to seek some support for Haymarket Books and the Center for Economic Research & Social Change. I know a bunch of progressive friends & family have made donations to organizations like the ACLU and Southern Poverty Law Center in recent weeks given the election of Donald Trump.

But in order to defeat the right and fight for a better world, we don't just need protest -- we need politics, ideas, and organization. Non-profit book publisher Haymarket Books is making an essential contribution to all of these.

Today, Haymarket Books is having a #GivingTuesday matching fund challenge. Please consider donating and helping us spread the word via twitter, facebook, etc. for a #GivingTuesday matching fund challenge.  A Haymarket Books supporter has offered to match up to $10,000 that Haymarket Books receives TODAY -- help maximize our impact!

Here's the link to the Haymarket Blog post: http://www.haymarketbooks.org/blogs/19-reading-and-resistance-go-hand-in-hand-support-haymarket-books

I'm part of the effort to help raise $125,000 for the Center for Economic Research & Social Change (CERSC) before February. One of their key projects is Haymarket Books, that put out the Stop Trump reading list recently: http://www.haymarketbooks.org/blogs/15-the-stop-trump-reading-list-from-haymarket-books (there are a lot of great books on here, like John Cusack & Arundhati Roy's new book of essays & conversations, Angela Davis's book on Black Lives Matter & Palestine solidarity, etc.)

From books like "From #BlackLivesMatter to Black Liberation" to others like "Subterranean Fire: A History of Working-Class Radicalism in the United States" and "Howard Zinn Speaks", CERSC & Haymarket provide crucial politics and ideas to arm us to fight the right and build the left.

Please consider donating! Thank you!

Chris
