Sherman Alexie, everybody’s favorite Native American author/poet/YA revolutionary and banned book super-star, not to mention this issue’s MoJo interview subject  will be reading from his new short story collection War Dances at the Women’s Building in San Francisco. After hearing him speak at last year’s New Yorker Festival, I can’t recommend this reading highly enough. If you’re within 100 miles and still on the fence, I’d invite you to reread the excellent title story which ran in the New Yorker this August. Still not sold? What if I told you that tickets were just $8?

That’s a heck of a lot less than it costs to buy on Amazon (though, apparently on his insistence, it’s not even available for the Kindle). Not in SF? Check out Alexie in your city

We need your help. We’re halfway through our Summer Membership Drive, and only $35,000 toward our $200,000 goal. But there’s good news: This week only, every donation will be doubled, up to $50,000, thanks to a generous reader.

That’s twice the impact for intrepid reporting that peels back the layers to publish the truth—and the context you need to break it all down. It’s twice the fuel for investigations on voting rights and justice, critical in this midterm election year. And it’s twice the power for exposing the chaos and corruption of a White House trying to control the narrative.

This is a pivotal moment in our nation, with democracy on the line, and we can only do this work because readers like you step up. Every donation, of any amount, makes a difference here. And every donation will be doubled.

We cannot do this work without you. Join the fight. Double your donation to defend democracy.
