 09 March 19 We're Not Trying to “Monetize,” We Are Trying to Survive
We get at least 3 feedback messages a day giving us advice on how to better “monetize” RSN. Which completely misses the point. We are not trying to build an empire on Wall Street ... we're trying to derail the empires that already exist there.
We focus on our mission, which is social justice. The money is a necessity for the organization's survival.
Donate, please.
