The <em>Fifth Estate</em> is the longest publishing, anti-authoritarian, English language publication in US history. Next year, we will celebrate our 40<sup>th</sup> birthday...maybe!

Due to rising printing and postage costs, our future is in jeopardy if we don’t come up with several thousand dollars within the next two months. We are planning a special 100 page bound edition and a national tour to celebrate our fortieth anniversary, but you may be holding our last issue if we don’t solve our financial difficulties immediately.
