The Nation has a new look to go with our rising circulation. Avenging Angels, an advertising firm that works for progressive causes and that is responsible for our “celebrity reader” subscription campaign, will be designing our covers starting with this issue. As we welcome Avenging Angels, we thank Open design studio and Scott Stowell, its head, who have created more than 200 Nation covers. The covers have won awards from the American Center for Design, the American Institute for Graphic Arts and the Society of Publication Designers, among others.

In accordance with his expanded role at the magazine, copy chief Roane Carey assumes the title of senior editor, dividing his time between editing and copy chief duties.

We welcome back from leave Patricia J. Williams, whose “Mad Law Professor” column resumes this week.

With the launch of our new Online Access Program, we can now offer subscribers access to the entire contents of each week’s issue online at no extra cost. Every letter, column, editorial, article, essay, poem and review will be available the day after it is published. Read Nation editorials earlier and e-mail Nation articles to friends, family, foes and legislators. Go to www.thenation.com with your magazine subscription label in hand and click on the underlined word login in the upper-right-hand corner of the home page. It will take about two minutes to complete your one-time-only registration.

Support The Nation’s June Fundraising Campaign

With the midterm elections now firmly upon us, the question is whether Democratic candidates will do more than merely occupy ballot lines as mild alternatives to the red-hot crisis that is Donald Trump.

As Trump spends over $1 billion a day on a globally destabilizing war on Iran and admits that he doesn’t “think about Americans’ financial situation,” millions across the country are struggling with the surging costs of essentials. Democrats must seize this moment and advance bold, small-“d” populist ideas—not settle for cynical caution that once again snatches defeat from the jaws of victory.

The Nation elevates progressive ideas, movements, and elected officials achieving real change across the country into the national conversation. At the same time, our journalists are exposing how crypto and AI-funded super PACs are spending hundreds of millions of dollars to knock out candidates they oppose, reporting on the devastating impact of the Supreme Court’s evisceration of the Voting Rights Act, and sounding the alarm on attempts by red states to quickly redraw electoral maps, disenfranchising Southern Black voters.

We can play this critical role because of support from readers like you. This June, we’re raising $20,000 to power The Nation’s independent journalism in the run-up to November’s immensely consequential elections.

It’s in our power to build a more just society, and your support at this critical moment brings us closer to that bold vision. I hope you’ll donate today.

Onward,

Katrina vanden Heuvel
