Here’s where we are, who’s moving us forward, and what our personnel are doing.
Starting June 1st, Thomas L. Knapp will become the C4SS Media Coordinator. His pay will change to $640 monthly for 20 hours weekly labor in that role.
He will also retain the title of Senior News Analyst for the time being and write only one column per week without pay. As Media Coordinator, Tom will be making a focused effort on media placement of the content we create. We’re very excited about this as it’s crucial to the core mission of the Center. While it has taken us a while to build up to a point where it’s believed we can sustain such an effort, we believe that an ongoing effort to “market” our free content to various media outlets will eventually result in “buyers”.
Thomas Knapp
While his pay won’t show up in our expenses until the June fundraiser, we are listing an intial expense request to get him started — $275 for voice communications and media contact list costs.
Additionally, starting June 1st, Darian Worden will publish two columns weekly to take up some of the slack from Tom writing less.
Darian Worden
As a result, Darian’s pay will increase by $100 monthly, beginning in June and listed at the start of the June fundraiser.
INCOME
And now some excellent news about financial momentum we’re building!
We now have regular monthly income that we can take into account when determining our monthly fundraising goals.
The contributors who have used the new option for recurring monthly donations mean we can count on at least $220 per month coming in automatically. Please consider signing up for these ongoing monthly donations to help put us on a more secure financial footing.
Here are two different ChipIns — if you have a blog or a website, please consider embedding either one! Thank you in advance for your continued generosity. We literally can’t do this without you. Please don’t forget you can use this link http://c4ss.org/support-the-center to make a comfortable, monthly donation or a one-time gift!
Individualist Anarchism Against Bosses, Inequality, Corporate Power, and Structural Poverty
Ed. Gary Chartier & Charles W. Johnson
Individualist anarchists believe in mutual exchange, not economic privilege. They believe in freed markets, not capitalism. They defend a distinctive response to the challenges of ending global capitalism and achieving social justice: eliminate the political privileges that prop up capitalists.
By C4SS Advisory Panel member Gary Chartier. A compelling case for a stateless society.
Anarchy happens when people organize their lives peacefully and voluntarily, without state aggression. This simple but powerful book explains why the state is illegitimate, unnecessary and dangerous, and what we can do to begin achieving real freedom. Paperback, 129 pp.
