We are less than 1% from our first funding milestone, which means the COuncil of Five will soon be able to vote on what prize we unveil!
Hope you all had an amazing labor day. We should all listen to one of Eugene Debb's speeches to celebrate! He's actually a historical figure I could totally see appearing in the extended Ithaqa universe. Railroad worker/organizer who leaned increasingly socialist as he took on the oligarchs in his day.
He went to jail for opposing WW1, a senseless and petty war in hindsight... and he actually received a million votes for his presidential campaign - WHILE he was in prison!
A very interesting figure who fought for so many of the things we enjoy as workers in AMerica today.
