Our country is at a crossroads!

The Guardian online news source warns:  “America faces an epic choice — in the coming months, and the results will define the country for a generation.  These are perilous times; much of what the Guardian holds dear has been threatened — democracy, civility, truth.  Our country is at a crossroads.  Science is in a battle with conjecture & instinct to determine policy in the middle of a pandemic.  At the same time, the U.S. is reckoning with centuries of racial injustice — as the White House stokes division along racial lines.  At a time like this, an independent news organization that fights for truth and holds power to account is not just optional .  It is essential.  The Guardian believes in equal access to fact-based news & analysis …. free for all readers.”  They rely on contributions.  I appreciate online news that I can access & check out articles on without having to subscribe to, free to those who can’t afford subscriptions.  Please consider sending a small contribution to The Guardian online.

I would also urge readers to contribute to Vox.com, another free online-journalistic magazine, which makes their excellent explanatory-journalism available to all.  This information is vital for a functioning democracy; we need the real facts and good journalists to bring their reporting to us.
