Dear Friend of The Nation,

Join The Nation on our 7-day Western Caribbean Cruise — December 8 to 15, 2024 — to come together with friends and family in these tumultuous times.

We're sailing to the Caribbean aboard Holland America Line's ms Nieuw Amsterdam to visit four extraordinary islands over a week. Embark on a convenient roundtrip Ft. Lauderdale adventure. Meet stingrays in Half Moon Cay, see how jerk chicken is made in Jamaica, taste rum cake in the Cayman Islands, and explore Cozumel beaches.

In our exclusive panel discussions at sea, we'll talk about Election 2024, the future of progressive politics and the fragile state of democracy, war and peace, hopeful signs of a resurgent labor movement, the fight to save reproductive rights in the US, the on-going fight for racial justice, a rapidly escalating climate crisis, what COVID-19 has shown us about averting the next pandemic, and much more.

I hope you will join The Nation on board in December — this is a crucial moment in our national politics, and the cruise provides essential funds to support the magazine as we continue to instigate progress in these trying times.

With appreciation,

Editorial Director and Publisher, The Nation
