| John, As host of the second hour of Forum, it’s an honor to listen to and discuss your experiences with and concerns about the pandemic, racial injustice and our divisive political arena. I also love getting to hear from artists and creatives whose work reflects and deepens our understanding of today’s challenges. I am grateful for your open dialogue and the diverse opinions you share with me and all of Forum’s listeners every day. I’m also grateful for your support, and I hope you’ll consider a donation so Forum and KQED can continue informing, inspiring and involving us all. Your gift today will be doubled up to $100,000 by Mark and Mauree Jane Perry and a group of anonymous major donors. Please help us meet our goal of $1,500,000 to support Forum and all of the other great KQED programs you love. Your support has made some of my favorite Forum moments possible: processing together the violent insurrection at the US Capitol, a conversation with author Yaa Gyasi about her newest novel, sharing how front-line workers are coping with overwhelming challenges, and hearing the first things listeners will do when the pandemic is in the rear window. I hope you’ll donate to KQED today, if you’re able. I look forward to more engaging discussions with you this year. | | |
