heroes of indie media BLOG ad (2)

People are looking for authentic news they can trust. The media has lost the faith of many — we are living in a crisis of “fake news” and non-news clickbait. There is, however, a sector of news that can be trusted: the news that remains authentic to our communities; the news that belongs to its readers: independent, non-profit media. 

What we need in Canada is an independent media system that is tuned to the activism that fights for a more just, wise, and equal world. That’s what rabble is. – Pam Palmater, mom, lawyer, professor, author, activist, a Mi’kmaw citizen and member of the Eel River Bar First Nation.

By supporting rabble, you are supporting an independent, progressive, and ethical media platform. rabble.ca is dedicated to engaging in journalism that challenges false narratives which threaten our communities and gnaw at our democracy.

-Amira Elghawaby, Journalist and Human Rights Advocate

The heroes of the indie media movement are the many thousands of individual community members chipping in to build something different. For over 17 years, people like you have made rabble a strong, independent voice. Can we count on your support today?

Because of community support, rabble.ca has been there as an ally, amplifying your work, reporting on your stories, and providing opportunities for young journalists to learn and grow. We are the real antidote to fake news. As non-profit media, we work with progressive allies to provide accurate and verifiable information, standing up to “fake news” and to the big business bias of corporate media.

Your donation makes all of this possible. In fact, if everyone who visited rabble over the course of a month gave just one dollar per month, we could cover all of our operating costs and much more. That’s the real deal. 

Help us meet our fundraising goals with a donation of $25 or more this fall and together we can make a difference, and amplify the work of the social justice groups that are already hard at work to make it happen.
