| | KNSJ News and Views: ~ ASD NEWS AND VIEWS ~ A Season for Peace Attend the ASD -KNSJ Holiday Party with Progressives Celebrate Solstice with Activists You need, we all need, a strong social justice movement in San Diego. Activist San Diego has been here with you for 16 years, building the Peace Movement, rallying to end police violence, keeping an Activist Center alive as a resource for progressives and the community. ASD has sponsored or co-sponsored 700 events and drawn 1000s into the cause for peace, equality and social justice. We did it all with your grassroots support and donations. KNSJ, barely 2.5 years old, has opened up the potential for 24/7 communications between all our organizations and causes, a university of the airwaves with truth-telling never heard in San Diego on the broadcast media... and we have just begun to tap the rich cultural and informational sharing. We want to transform the political landscape, especially in this election year! We have never needed you more than today! KNSJ is being held hostage by a monopolist tower company to pay $14,000 of fees. We want to erase this debt by Jan 1, 2016 to start the New Year full force. ONLY YOU can do this for us. We have never let up or let you down. Please launch us into 2016 free of debt so we can expand news, muckraking, Local music and culture for the next generation and beyond! Please, Donate Now! Contributions are tax deductible too. Do it Now... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ KNSJ and Activist San Diego's Annual Social Justice !

KNSJ MAKING SAN DIEGO PROUD WITH LIVE PROGRAMMING: YOU ARE PART OF THE SOLUTION Activist San Diego's new Board of Directors is calling on the community to help raise $5000 a month to offset the huge expenses we face keeping the radio station operating: we owe $13,000 and tower rental fees, $3000 to ASCAP, BMI, SESAC and Sound Exchange for music royalties, we owe $2000 in legal fees including to our lawyer, $750 for Tax prep and $1000 plus for insurance, hundreds in utilities... YOU are the source of 90% of our income so please make an ongoing contribution today! This time don't procrastinate; donate at KNSJ.org If you listen to Democracy Now! and Tom Hartman on KNSJ you hear the daily exposé of corporate corruption and government spying that informs and motivates us to stay involved and stay connected. Please listen in on 89.1 fm in you car, on the TuneIn Radio or iTunes App, on online at KNSJ.org. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *Join Activist San Diego Join ASD as a member! In so doing you are helping us mobilize, educate and sustain activism. Our challenge: to close the current $1000-a-month deficit we currently have incurred running your brilliantly-progressive community radio station and developing the racial justice organizing that ASD is helping lead in SD. We need you and San Diego desperately needs progressive activists like us! Join Now!
- If each of the 1400 of you who receive this newsletter donated $2-$5 a month, we'd become a more powerful organization. We will reward you with SD Rep Tickets and more.
- If a few more of you would invest 5-10 times that amount we'd be a powerfully transformative organization.
