Truthout is a vital news source and a living history of political struggle. If you think our work is valuable, support us with a donation of any size.
The hearings on the financial crisis are getting underway, but the real solutions will need to come out of Congress. Katrina vanden Heuvel notes that we’ve seen meltdown capitalism; is it possible to create a conscious capitalism to take its place, or do we need to radically rethink our economic system?
We ask Raj Patel, author of Stuffed and Starved and the new The Value of Nothing: How to Reshape Market Society and Redefine Democracy, Katrina vanden Heuvel, editor of The Nation and of the book Meltdown, and Daniel Gross, Newsweek columnist.
An important fundraising appeal: 8 Days to raise $46,000
Thank you for reading Truthout today. We have a brief message before you go.
Unfortunately, donations are down for Truthout at a time when media faces immense pressure. Yet, grassroots media is vital in the fight against Trump’s authoritarian reign. Our mandate to tell the truth, share strategies for resistance, and speak against fascism grows more urgent each day. We must appeal for your support.
If you can support Truthout with a one-time or monthly donation, you will make a significant impact on our work. Please donate during our fundraiser.
