The stories inspire us because we love liberty. And with your help they can inspire others and bring the message to your greater community. The ACLU Freedom Files is a revolutionary,10-part television series that tells the stories of real people in America whose civil liberties have been threatened—and who courageously fought back. As you know, the personal stakes have never been higher in our efforts to defend freedom. And every episode of the Freedom Files brings that point home. There has never been a more important time to share the importance of civil liberties with people around the country. By joining today, you can receive this captivating series on DVD as you stand with us in the fight to protect civil liberties. You'll also have an opportunity to share these stories with a larger community. In August, the ACLU won a historic case when a federal court in Michigan ruled that the Bush administration's NSA program to monitor the phone calls and e-mails of millions of Americans without warrants is unconstitutional and must be stopped. This case impacts real people and their ability to communicate with loved ones, clients and colleagues—without fear of reprisal. Yet, not everyone knows how or what their rights are, and how our rights are threatened daily. I'm pleased to offer you the opportunity to join the ACLU today and receive the entire first season of the show in our newly released two-DVD set with a gift of $45 or more. Because so many ACLU supporters share our desire to spread the message beyond our "core" audience, we are also offering you the option of sending a set of the Freedom Files directly to your local library. For a minimal additional charge to cover our costs, we will send the set to your local library in your name. Ivan William Pfeifer of Farmington, NM sent Freedom Files to his library, and said:
"Friends: The safeguarding of our personal liberties should be important to every citizen, and this series documents real instances in which these liberties have been abused." By joining today, you'll be doing more than becoming a card-carrying member of the ACLU—you'll also be helping spread the word about the importance of standing up for freedom. All of us at the ACLU are so proud of the Freedom Files series and of the work it represents. Please join the ACLU today to receive your DVD set. Also consider ordering a set for your library so that more people have access to these brave stories. Click here to join the ACLU and get your own copy of the ACLU Freedom Files today. Sincerely,
Anthony D. Romero Executive Director ACLU |
