Dear rabble rouser:

This is an appeal for you to join our 2009 membership recruitment drive.

The news is coming fast and furious at rabble.ca; with new bloggers, writers, podcasters, babblers and videographers we are working to bring you world issues while we increase our coverage of local and regional news.  

Will you become a rabble member and help us to keep growing and improving our news coverage? Become a member for as little as $5/month. Or, if you are already a member, please consider increasing your membership level? To sign up now, click here.

rabble has been covering stories like the democracy struggles in Iran with  Nima Maleki‘s blog  providing news and analysis, Sachin Seth’s video coverage of the Toronto rally at Queen’s Park  and our in cahoots coverage highlighted how you can support Amnesty International‘s work around the struggles.

We have had first hand reporting from Ben Powless’ trip to Peru and his coverage of a massacre of indigenous peoples.  And we have new blogs recently added to rabble (with more to come) including She Who Holds the Pen a collection of feminist musings, poetry, movie and book reviews, commentary, calls-to action, writings, and reflections.

If you become a member we have fantastic “thank you gifts”: choose a one year subscription to one of 14 leading independent magazines, including The New Internationalist, Mother Jones, Our Times, This Magazine, Herizons, the Dominion, Alternatives Magazine and many, many more as a “thank you” for your support.

Keep up with the world at rabble.ca.  We have special “issue” pages, including on Gaza featuring first hand reporting and other news, and we are developing local news pages, to be launched in the Fall.

Your membership keeps the news flowing.

PLUS sign up or upgrade your membership before July 31, and choose an extra special gift: we partnered with some of your favorite rabble rousers to offer you autographed copies of books by Maude Barlow, Lawrence Hill, Rawi Hage, Monia Mazigh, Ann Wright, Judy Rebick, and Don Tapscott!

There are even more benefits to membership. See https://rabble.ca/about/membership for details, or sign up now at: https://rabble.ca/membership (YES, join before July 31 and not only support rabble, but get more than your money’s worth in terms of thank you gifts!)

In solidarity,rabble’s staff and board
