“The Brussels Business” is a docu-thriller that enters the twilight zone of European democracy. An expedition into the world of the 15,000 lobbyists in Brussels, the PR conglomerates, think tanks and their all-encompassing networks of power and its close ties with political elites.

A conference related to the film, “EU in crisis: analysis, resistance and alternatives to Corporate Europe”, will take place May 5 and 6 at Maison des Associations Internationales, Brussels.

We’re not going to stand for it. Are you?

You don’t bury your head in the sand. You know as well as we do what we’re facing as a country, as a people, and as a global community. Here at Truthout, we’re gearing up to meet these threats head on, but we need your support to do it: We still need to raise $14,000 to ensure we can keep publishing independent journalism that doesn’t shy away from difficult — and often dangerous — topics.

We can do this vital work because unlike most media, our journalism is free from government or corporate influence and censorship. But this is only sustainable if we have your support. If you like what you’re reading or just value what we do, will you take a few seconds to contribute to our work?
