Friend,
Today, we’re honoring what would have been Norman Lear’s 103rd birthday.
Norman didn’t just help shape American culture — he helped shape our moral imagination. He believed in justice, equality, and the power of people coming together to defend our freedoms. That belief inspired him to found People For the American Way more than 40 years ago.
And now, in this authoritarian moment of extremism, fear, and rollback of rights, Norman’s vision is more important than ever.
The Far Right and MAGA extremists are determined to silence voices like his — and ours. They’re attacking reproductive rights, undermining democracy, banning books, detaining our neighbors without notice or due process, imposing Christian nationalism, threatening LGBTQ+ Americans, and packing the courts with judges who will uphold their cruel and dangerous agenda for decades to come.
But we’re still here. Still fighting. And still carrying out the mission Norman laid out: to build a country grounded in freedom, fairness, and truth, not fear, cruelty, and exclusion.
We are asking you to honor Norman by making a contribution today to the Norman Lear Legacy Fund — and help power our work in this defining moment.
Donate to the Norman Lear Legacy Fund >>
Every dollar supports our relentless research, organizing, advocacy, and mobilization to stop the MAGA movement in its tracks — and push for a bold, inclusive, and democratic future.
Norman never stopped believing in this country, even when it broke his heart. He knew change was possible — because people like you make it possible.
Let’s prove him right.
Make a gift to the Norman Lear Legacy Fund today. Rush your donation now. >>
With unwavering solidarity and determination,
People For the American Way
