And, like so many of you, dear readers, we faced challenges this year. In addition to social, political, and environmental turmoil, we found ourselves in the midst of a media landscape that is increasingly hostile to independent news, during an economic recession that continues to impact individuals鈥� ability to donate to the causes and outlets they care about. And as always, 精东影业 does not accept money from advertisers, governments, or corporations. As such, we underwent an organizational restructuring that required us to say goodbye to several of our colleagues. We are still recalibrating in the wake of that shift, but our commitment to you, and to the principles and mission that guide 精东影业, remains steadfast. 

Among those core principles is an abiding commitment to community care鈥攊ncluding for each other, as our Executive Editor Evette Dionne often reminds our team. That鈥檚 why the Editorial team will be taking time away from our computers for the final two weeks of the year. This means that we will publish our last piece of new content for the year on Dec. 21, 2023. We will return on Jan. 3, 2024, refreshed and ready to bring you a new year of hard-hitting, hopeful, inspiring, truth-telling content that helps create the blueprint to build a better world.

We remain grateful for your ongoing support, which allows us to seek out and produce stories about the innovative, impactful ways that people are finding solutions to our world鈥檚 biggest challenges. We consider it a privilege to help share these stories, and our solemn duty to elevate the voices of the people on the front lines of this kind of change. We could not do this work without your support鈥攕o if you feel inspired, and are able, we invite you to make a to 精东影业 All gifts made by Dec. 31, 2023, will be matched, doubling your impact.

We wish you and yours a safe, peaceful, and happy holiday season. And we look forward to celebrating a new year with you鈥攐ne that we hope brings with it more peace, justice, and solidarity鈥攆or all of us who call this planet home.
