Black Agenda Report Urgently Needs Your Help

It's come to this, dear readers. For five years now, Black Agenda Report has delivered you news, commentary and analysis from a black left perspective. In that time, we haven't begged much or often, compared to other places on the internet that deliver a lot less and spend a lot more.


The truth is that Black Agenda Report is in dire financial straits. Although our readership is at an all time high, the ads we run on-site barely pay for hosting costs. We need now to raise about $10,000 before year's end to stay afloat, and figure out how to bring in several times that during the coming year. Please help us stay out here. The kind and the quality of news, analysis and commentary BAR delivers to you every week is unique and worthy of your support.
This is the time your one time or recurring donation will make a big difference, the difference between sustainabilty on the one hand, and the possibility that some time soon, Black Agenda Report will go dark, pun intended.
Click the top donation box below to make a one time donation of $20, $50, $100, or whatever you can afford, or the second box to make a recurring donation in any amount. Donations to Black Agenda Report are not tax-deductible.
Do you value Black Agenda Report? Then please help us to keep doing this.  with a one-time donation in any amount today.
Or better yet, make a recurring monthly donation to help guarantee our survival. Choose an amount & click "subscribe."

Since not many people are familiar with the economics of this kind of endeavor, we're working on an in-depth article that explains BAR's situation and places it in the context of what can only be described as a crisis in journalism, public information and democracy. Look for that next week.


But the bottom line of it all is that we need revenue to survive. That means we need you. Now. We'll do what we can do. We only ask that you make it possible. Donate. Now.
