Dear Friend of The Nation,
Last Saturday, the United States celebrated the 250th anniversary of its Declaration of Independence.
As Fourth of July speakers put their own spin on the American story, Nation readers know that the true story of the United States is one of struggle and often overwhelming battles over the right to vote, to hold office, and to meaningfully challenge elite power on behalf of the great mass of Americans.
That fight is as fierce today as it’s ever been. It’s a fight to not only right the profound wrongs of the Trump administration, but to create a country that funds universal healthcare not warfare, that taxes the rich, builds affordable housing and safe schools and welcomes immigrants into an inclusive, tolerant society.
This is the time to connect in-person with like-minded progressives who are building power in communities across the country.
Join leading journalists, writers, scholars, activists, and fellow Nation readers this December 5-12 on the Nation Cruise through the Western Caribbean to strategize, coordinate, debate, and meet new allies in the fight ahead.
Cabins are going fast! Don’t wait any longer to book your place.
