Each week, we print something here in an effort to convince you to give your financial support to making BC continue into the future.  And each week, many new BC Paid Subscribers decide that $50 is more than a fair price in that endeavor.  Still others, most of whom are already BC Paid Subscribers, continue their support with either a one-time contribution or another recurring contribution.  We’re closing in on the goal of welcoming, during this first year of BC Paid Subscribers and BC Contributors, 20% of our readers as members of The BlackCommentator, and yet we still need YOUR help.

In recent weeks, we’ve taken a large step in our quest for social justice and peace, with the creation of the BC Editorial Board.  We’ve continued our mission of commentary, analysis and investigations on issues affecting African Americans by adding regular columns from Anthony Asadullah Samad (Between the Lines), Carl Bloice (Left Margin), and Lawrence R. Velvel (National Affairs).  We have published important commentary from our BC Editorial Board.  If you’re not a BC Paid Subscriber, take this opportunity to click this link into the BC archives Past Issues, and you’ll see the quality of thought and writing from the best progressive thinkers of our time:
