The Fight for Affordable Housing Rages On

Can grassroots activism impact housing prices in places like San Francisco?

Truthout is an indispensable resource for activists, movement leaders and workers everywhere. Please make this work possible with a quick donation.

Curtis and Riley put all the pieces together, and they’re not sure what to do about finding a place to live. As they’re walking the streets, they run into a rally outside City Hall led by Carmen, a housing activist.

An urgent fundraising appeal: 5 Days to raise $38,000

Truthout is one of only a few platforms for justice-oriented, grassroots journalism. Today, we face an existential threat.

Due to Google’s launch of AI search, we’ve seen a drastic plunge in our site traffic and, as a result, our revenue. We lost 15 percent of our readership overnight. This was a readership we painstakingly built over decades, and it vanished because Google chose corporate greed over a healthy democracy.

We are fundraising right now to meet our basic operating expenses. If you can support Truthout with a one-time or monthly donation, you will make a significant impact on our work. Anything you can do makes a difference — we appreciate your support.
