Mole's Progressive Democrat

The Progressive Democrat Newsletter grew out of the frustration of the 2004 election. Originally intended for New York City progressives, its readership is now national. For anyone who wants to be alerted by email whenever this newsletter is updated (usually weekly), please send your email address and let me know what state you live in (so I can keep track of my readership).

    Manhattan, NY Focus

    Within NYC I have tended to focus on Brooklyn, Queens and the Bronx. It is kind of silly that I have neglected Manhattan since I do have a fair number of readers in Manhattan. So at the very least I want to highlight some excellent groups and organizations in Manhattan.
