Anger over South Africa's high unemployment and government corruption has bloomed into protests throughout the nation in anticipation of May 7 elections. Though some marchers, such as this Democratic Alliance supporter in Johannesburg, were peaceful, others around the country threw rocks or set fire to polling stations.

Be one of the first

Help kick off the new era of In These Times! Without a media that brings people together and creates a written record of the struggles of workers, their voices will be fragmented and forgotten.

The mission of In These Times is to be that written record, and to guide and grow those movements.

We have a lot of work ahead of us, and that work starts today. Early support is the most valuable support, and that’s why we’re asking you to pitch in now. If you are excited for this new era of In These Times, please make a donation today.
