SPECIAL MESSAGE FROM MARIANA:

We absolutely can’t do this without you. Your generous support helps us operate and support anarchists – the writers, tech experts, artists and other professionals in our community – who are dedicating their lives to the ideals of peace and freedom without the state.

Over 600 people on our Facebook group alone will receive this message. If only one out of every 10 of those 600-plus people gave $5 each, we’d make our goal and then plenty more.

Are you one of that 10%? Can you become one of them?

Please support our work. Then get your friends to support our work. And please make sure to join our general Facebook Fan Page (currently called “Liking” the page) to share dialog with others who envision and live the ideal of a stateless society!

Thank you!

Regards,

Mariana Evica
Development Specialist
Center for a Stateless Society (C4SS)
