Given the ongoing departures and dismissals from the current administration, I’m expecting an upcoming CARE2 campaign to support Sam Bee’s safe, welcoming and supportive Rescue Farm for Displaced Government Workers. Sam introduces us to a new arrival: Elizabeth Shackleford, a diplomat, who until last December, was serving as part of the U.S. Mission to Somalia.
Since our platform is about expressing ideas and ideals instead of cash flow, clicks, or fundraising, we have the freedom to include a wide range of topics and formats that might not work elsewhere. We don’t need or want paid content, promotional materials, or story lines designed to please donors.
So the idea here is to present videos one or more of the editors feel speaks to them. Sometimes it will be news. Sometimes it will be history. And a lot of the time it will be culture. You can not and should not separate these things: it is diversity and intersectionality that makes our movement strong.
