2017-When Powerful Predators Pay the Price
HBO's "Last Week Tonight" opened its 2017 season on an interesting note. While the popular Emmy-winning news comedy show has never shied away from delivering scathing political commentary, its first main piece of the year was about how the newly-installed Commander-in-Chief, Donald J. Trump, is a dangerous machine of lies. It's a hefty and bold accusation for an entertainment show to make, even when you consider "Last Week Tonight" has affected some actual change (notably in net neutrality). Towards the end of the segment, Oliver pleaded with the media and the viewers to hold Trump and his team accountable for any misinformation they may spread and for the actions they commit. And if enough people push this position, real consequences might come.
Looking back, that segment almost feels like a foretelling of a theme of 2017: holding powerful men accountable for terrible deeds. Over the course of the past eleven months, we have seen many prominent and powerful men in many industries forced to face consequences for reportedly bad behavior — Travis Kalanick stepped down as UBER's CEO, Harvey Weinstein was ousted from his film production company and the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, Warner Brothers studio has severed ties with director Brett Ratner, Fox News fired Bill O'Reilly, and just recently NPR's Vice President of news and editorial director Michael Oreskes was placed on indefinite leave. All of these cases stem from one commonality: all the men ousted had been accused of sexual harassment and/or assault.

Taylor Swift tries to silence Popfront with cease and desist letter
A few weeks ago, PopFront published a piece about Taylor Swift and her alt-right, white supremacist fans. The piece dove into a history of white supremacy and eugenics and how those ideologies have played a role in the political discourse of this country. It compared the lyrics of Swift's song "Look What You Made Me Do" and the chants at the white supremacist rally in Charlottesville Virginia.
The end of the piece offered the following call to action:
"And while pop musicians are not respected world leaders, they have a huge audience and their music often reflects their values. So, Taylor's silence is not innocent, it is calculated. And if that is not true, she needs to state her beliefs out loud for the world- no matter what fan base she might lose because in America 2017 silence in the face of injustice means support for the oppressor."
PopFront is far from the first outlet that has noticed the connection between Taylor Swift and the alt-right. Vice, Konbini, and Complex are just a few news outlets that have written about Swift and the alt-right. Swift has very vocal alt-right fans that make public statements about their fandom and assign their ideology to hers on social media. There have been many stories about this connection in the past 18 months and our piece was an attempt to continue the discussion, as well as call on Swift to denounce this hateful group. The rise of the alt-right must be examined critically. It is unsettling to see Americans openly expressing racism. Celebrities are not obligated to voice their political beliefs, but it is not a stretch to assume that Swift would want to issue a statement even if it could be controversial.
We could not have imagined this article would result in Swift's lawyer sending us a cease and desist letter. Taylor Swift is no doubt loved around the world and has many millions of dollars to show for her success. She is in a position of privilege that most people will never experience. She is also probably aware of the different social movements and issues that rocked America in the past year. And while it is unnecessary to expect all celebrities to be political commentators, many of her peers with similar influence have lent their voices to these affairs. Swift's silence on the alt-right is especially notable because her white supremacist fans have taken the time to politicize her image. Taylor has historically demonstrated a concerted interest in how she is perceived by the public, so it would be in her interest to make a statement denouncing these groups or at least against racism and bigotry in general.
But instead of publicly making such a statement or publicly addressing her critics for failing to do so, Swift chose to privately employ legal threats and demand PopFront's criticism disappear. In a threatening letter, Swift and her lawyer demanded the story be immediately removed. This tactic can set a dangerous precedent because it would mean any public figure could chill any criticism levied at them. At a time when the press is under constant attack from the highest branches of government, this cease and desist letter is far more insidious than Swift and her lawyer may understand. The press should not be bullied by legal action nor frightened into submission from covering any subject it chooses. Swift's scare tactics may have worked in the past, but PopFront refuses to back down because we believe the First Amendment is more important than preserving a celebrity's public image.
PopFront has sought the help of the ACLU to address the demands made by Swift and her lawyer. The cease and desist letter, the ACLU response, and the original article that sparked this action are here.
We will not be silenced.
PopFront is a small online publication created in 2013 to discuss critical social, cultural, and political issues. We regularly critique and analyze the media with opinion-based pieces. PopFront fundamentally cares about intellectual integrity, facts, and truth. And most importantly, every PopFront piece serves to elicit discussion and hopefully inspire action. We will continue to provide high-quality critical pieces touching on social and political issues and build a diverse platform for people of all races, sexualities, genders, or neuroclassifications.

Swiftly to the alt-right: Taylor subtly gets the lower case kkk in formation
Swiftly to the alt-right: Taylor Swift subtly gets the lower case "kkk" in formation with "Look What You Made me Do"
An anti–Marxist Mixtape review.
A little over a decade after her musical debut, Taylor Swift has made a career out of being portrayed as a good girl unjustly wronged. Her song catalog is stocked with tunes about how innocent she is, and how men seem to wrong her. But the most notable moment of the Taylor-as-an-innocent-victim narrative may have come when Kanye West interrupted her Best Female Video acceptance speech at the 2009 Video Music Awards to drunkenly ramble about how Beyoncé should have won.
Kanye upstaging Taylor in that moment not only gave that narrative merit in a lot of people's eyes, it also looked like the personification of many a long-standing white fear: a black man taking away a white woman's power. And Taylor has been playing off that narrative ever since, while America has embraced the notion of white victimhood — despite the reality. Kanye West is still hated for that moment, and the media has documented further fights between Taylor Swift and other pop stars such as Katy Perry, Calvin Harris, and Kim Kardashian. There is no shortage of media details about these "feuds", whatever their purpose may be.
On the other hand, the idea that Taylor Swift is an icon of white supremacist, nationalists, and other fringe groups, seems to finally be getting mainstream attention. But the dog whistles to white supremacy in the lyrics of her latest single are not the first time that some have connected the (subtle) dots. A white supremacist blogger from neo-Nazi site The Daily Stormer was quoted in a Broadly article in May 2016 as saying, "it is also an established fact that Taylor Swift is secretly a Nazi and is simply waiting for the time when Donald Trump makes it safe for her to come out and announce her Aryan agenda to the world." What "facts" the blogger is pointing to are unclear (and likely invented); still, his statement exemplifies how neo-Nazis and white supremacists look to her as their pop icon.

Entertainingly "Atypical": The Current State of Autism in Media
This piece is the first of the ongoing series "Neurowrites" – where disabled writers comment on politics, society, and media.
When I was young and was unaware of my autism diagnosis,I did not have a reference point for autistic people because there was no representation of Autism in the media. I only knew about autism through a Baby-sitters Club book. The book, entitled Kristy and the Secret of Susan, was about one of the titular "baby-sitters" taking on a non-verbal autistic charge and I honestly don't remember much about it, except that the main character Kristy decides to leave her autistic charge Susan alone after unsuccessfully trying to force her to integrate with other kids. I didn't much care much for the book at the time despite being a big Baby-sitters Club fan, and I'm sure if I read it now I'd be appalled at how the characters were written and treated. Either way, I didn't have a reference point as to what autism was because I didn't really have that much exposure to it in media. I had characters that I liked and related to, but none that felt especially representative of me as an autistic girl.
I think it's safe to say that the days of autism being a non-entity in pop culture are coming to an end. Since diagnoses have risen in the last twenty years, movies and television have slowly come to recognize and insert autistic people as characters. Various television shows like Girl Meets World, Sesame Street, Parenthood, and Community have featured characters explicitly stated or implied to be on the autism spectrum. The 2016 crime thriller "The Accountant", starring Ben Affleck as an autistic accountant was a unexpected box office hit and is green-lighted for a sequel. And this August, Netflix premiered a dramedy series about an autistic teenager looking for love called "Atypical": Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ieHh4U-QYwU&feature=youtu.be

Eleven Questions for Hillary Clinton, from Bernie Sanders Supporters
Hillary Clinton's supporters' argument that Bernie Sanders backers should throw their support to her in November relies on two main points: mainly, that the party must unite to defeat Donald Trump; but also, that Sanders has already pushed Hillary to the left, and hence 2016 Hillary is much more palatable to left-liberals than her earlier incarnations.
On some issues, this might be true. Hillary now claims to support raising the minimum wage to $12 an hour, expanding the Social Security Trust Fund, and inaugurating a work-study program to eliminate college debt.
Still, Hillary's stances on several key issues remain unclear, and if she wishes to sway Bernie voters to her side, she should answer the following questions:
1) Is Hillary for or against "capital f" Free Trade?
A cynic might claim that Hillary opposes Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) while running for office, but supports them while in office. Or, perhaps she opposes them generally, but favors them in every specific case—since every new FTA, unlike the previous, includes provisions that will protect labor rights and the environment.
As a candidate in 2008, Hillary opposed the Panama, Colombia, and South Korea FTAs, and promised to renegotiate NAFTA. As Obama's Secretary of State, she vigorously supported all of these agreements and did nothing to alter NAFTA. In so doing, she stood far to the right of House Democrats (84%, 67%, and 65% voted against the Colombia, Korea, and Panama deals, respectively). She also heaped praise upon the TPP, calling it the "gold standard" of FTAs. She now opposes it, and would adduce this flip-flop and her only other opposition to an FTA (the Central American Free Trade Agreement, or CAFTA) as evidence that she has always staunchly opposed them.
Debating in Michigan, Hillary stated, "I voted against the only multinational trade agreement that came before me when I was in the Senate. It was called CAFTA." This is true only in the most gymnastically semantic sense. Yes, technically, the Central American Free Trade Agreement was the only "multinational" FTA that Clinton voted on as a senator (she joined 77% of Senate Democrats in opposing it) if "multi-national" is defined as involving three or more countries, rather than two. But as senator, she supported "bi-national" FTAs with all of the following countries: Oman, Morocco, Australia, Singapore, and Chile.
Her world-class prevarications notwithstanding, Hillary must do two simple things to impress Bernie voters: 1) Defend or repudiate her record or overwhelming support for FTAs, and 2) "Set the record straight" that she will unconditionally oppose similar FTAs as president. Continue reading →

The Gig Economy is Rigged: Struggles of Working Musicians in Seattle
Companies like Spotify have promised to "create real value for the music industry" and to support artists and creators, but if the path to cultural democracy is anything like their pay-per-stream rates, we're only .0084% there.*
In her book "The People's Platform: Taking Back Power and Culture in the Digital Age", Astra Taylor challenges cyber-utopian notions of the emancipatory power of the Internet to democratize culture, music, art, and film. Certainly, the openness of the Internet gives artists and creators the tools to produce and distribute their work in a DIY fashion. Yet the laissez-faire nature of the net can also magnify the persisting inegalitarian features of the creative economy.

Hillary's "Pragmatism" Would Make Norquist and Friedman Proud
The debates have exposed differences in Clinton and Sanders' positions on key issues. Sanders wants free pubic college, a new Glass–Steagall Act to regulate the banks, and single-payer healthcare, whereas Clinton wants a work-study program for debt-free college, and prefers strengthening Dodd-Frank's financial regulations and the Affordable Care Act. By invoking her experience in "getting things done" versus Sanders's "idealism," Clinton conveys that pragmatism is inherent in her platform; that she stands to the right of Sanders because her positions have a better chance of being enacted. But in fact, Clinton disagrees with Sanders's major positions on principle first, and thus stands to the right of most Americans. Worse, her principles are unsound, inane, or petty, and often taken straight from the far right.

Clinton has at least two reasons to oppose single-payer healthcare. One is that since she claims single-payer would constitute a slight tax increase on the middle class, she will not allow herself to consider it. Here, Clinton is the perfect anti-pragmatist, making up her own arbitrary rules to obstruct sensible policy, and retain the U.S.'s position as the most inefficient health care state in the world (How pleased is Grover Norquist!). Never mind that the "tax increase" would be a semantic one for most Americans, since most will save thousands on health insurance and medical bills while paying a few hundred dollars more in taxes. Second, Clinton also opposes single-payer because of the fiction that it could not pass unless Obamacare were first unilaterally abolished. This notion is a demonstrable fabrication, contradicted by a basic understanding of legislative procedure. It is embarrassing that Chelsea Clinton first peddled it; shameful that Hillary would advance the lie. Continue reading →

Stand Your Ground Laws in a Galaxy Far, Far Away
warning: some mild Star Wars: The Force Awakens spoilers follow.
Even before its release, Star Wars: The Force Awakens was the subject of both critical praise (and racist hate) for its multicultural cast. But while the seventh chapter of Star Wars has been lauded for appearing more inclusive, the film ultimately suffers from some of the deeply conservative, even subtly racist tropes inherent to most big budget action movies—the same kinds of flimsy hero logic that provide the moral justification for racist "Stand your Ground" laws across many US states.
Do stormtroopers have humanity behind the mask, or can they be murdered without mercy?
To understand this connection, let's start with a recent article about Star Wars written by Aaron Bady in The New Inquiry. Bady writes:
[Finn the Stormtrooper's] psychology makes no sense at all if you think even a little bit […] there's something extremely unsettling about how easily he shrugs off a lifetime of indoctrination into a fascist death-cult, how quickly and painlessly he becomes one of the guys, just basically a good dude. […] Where is the ideological indoctrination (and psychological scar tissue) that would have accompanied being crassly made into biopower and canon-fodder?
Bady doesn't quite go so far as to touch on the allegory of Finn-as-slave, though it seems like the filmmakers are rubbing it in our face. Finn (John Boyega) is a "rebel" stormtrooper who describes having been stolen from his family as a child to serve in the despotic First Order—a series of events that, in our own galaxy, we'd be apt to call "slavery." The Star Wars movies have touched on slavery before—recall Darth Vader (formerly Anakin Skywalker) was a child slave, although as a white character serving an alien master, his character lacked the symbolic thrust held by a black character like Finn. ("Do race and racism exist in the Star Wars universe as they do in ours?" is a wholly different question, and one that is never really examined with any satisfaction). Continue reading →

Does this study prove SFBARF's mission is puke?
You've probably heard the urban planning acronym NIMBY, which stands for Not In My Backyard. Often used in a pejorative sense (as in nimbyism), the word recalls the political sentiments of neighborhood groups—nominally, wealthier ones with more clout—to cease any local development or change whatsoever, regardless of social benefit. The term could be applied, for instance, to Marin County's perpetual efforts to stop BART from running through their county (much-needed 40 years ago when first proposed) —motivated by racist fears of diluting their lily-white demographic.
Then there's SFBARF, a citizen activist group that promotes YIMBYism—the counterfactual to NIMBY, i.e. a philosophy of "Yes In My Backyard." A punk-sounding acronym for "San Francisco Bay Area Renter's Federation," SFBARF advocates for building more luxury homes and condos as a way of reducing the housing crunch on middle- and lower-income households in the Bay Area. To that end, they travel around the Bay Area and attend city council meetings, lobbying on behalf of developers.
Does that sound confusing? Here's the economic logic: lots of rich people want to move to the Bay Area, and they don't necessarily want to live in poorer neighborhoods—but, they will if that's all they can find. Better to keep building condos and luxury high-rises in wealthy areas, so as to keep the poor and middle-income neighborhoods for those who need them most.
Yet many Bay Area activists have called for SFBARF's head, claiming that they're a "faux-grassroots" group that only encourages developers, and poses as progressive. Is there any basis to that claim? Continue reading →

State and defence agree on sentence for cigarrette fraud convict
Windhoek-Both the State and the defence counsel for a woman convicted of fraud involving cigarettes asked the court to sentence her to 10 years' imprisonment with part of the sentence suspended.
They however disagreed on the portion of the term to be suspended.
Advocate Simba Nduna for the State asked that four years be suspended while Titus Ipumbu for the defence asked that six years be suspended.
Venicia Ann Koning, a former issuing invoice administrative clerk at then Indo Atlantic, now CIC, was convicted by High Court Judge Alfred Siboleka on 18 counts of fraud involving the issuing of false invoices for cigarettes that were not ordered by customers at Walvis Bay.
She was acquitted on 19 other counts on a Section 174 application after the State closed its case.
Her co-accused David Martin Bezuidenhout, who was the driver of the cash van that delivered cigarettes to customers, was acquitted on 12 counts of fraud, alternatively theft.
Defence counsel Ipumbu asked the court to show mercy on the accused as she is a first offender and still relatively young.
He asked the court to give her a chance to rehabilitate and become a productive member of society again.
Prosecutor Nduna on the other hand said the convict did not take the court into her confidence and the only plausible motive for the theft was excessive greed.
He said that Koning had ample time to reflect on the crimes as they occurred over a period of time. He further said that Koning did not show any remorse and if any she was merely sorry for being caught.
He further stated that if Koning is sentenced too leniently, society will think it is okay to steal and be pitied by the courts.
According to him a message must be sent to the public that the courts will mete out deterrent sentences for so-called white collar crimes.
Judge Siboleka said he would deliver sentence on September 29 and remanded Koning in custody. Her bail was cancelled upon her conviction earlier this month.


BAR HARBOR — The Maine Seacoast Mission has found a boat to deliver services to several of Maine's outer islands while the Sunbeam V is out of the water for major repairs and upgrades starting later this spring.
Members of the mission staff and Sunbeam crew suggested names for the fill-in boat, and school children on the islands were asked to vote for their favorite. The winner: Moonbeam.
Sunbeam engineer Storey King researched and inspected several possible temporary replacements before selecting a 34-foot wooden Downeast Cruiser, the mission said in a press release.
"The Sunbeam crew will be traveling around on a Moonbeam this summer and fall while our beloved Sunbeam is enjoying its much-need refit," said Douglas Cornman, the mission's island outreach director.
That work will include sandblasting and applying a marine primer to the inside of the hull to stop the spread of rust, a process that will require tearing out the staterooms and everything else below the water line.
Two old, inefficient generators will be replaced, as will the furnace and air compressor. The galley will get new appliances and the crew's rather Spartan quarters will be redesigned to provide a little more space and comfort.
Last year, the mission conducted a special gift campaign to raise $1.5 million for the Sunbeam improvements.
The 74-foot Sunbeam is used by mission staff to provide social, health, education and spiritual services to residents of several offshore islands, from the Cranberry Isles to Monhegan. Visited most frequently are Frenchboro, Isle au Haut and Matinicus.

Internet Marketing is a company's greatest tool for increasing sales in this digital age that we live in. Almost every aspect of a person's life is at some point connected to the Internet. This is very evident in the amount of social media interaction that is conducted each day.
More and more people are spending their lives online. That's already a given fact. Therefore, it would be more prudent if companies were to focus their marketing initiatives online as well, since more and more of their customers are accessible there. However, there are still skeptics who insists that the traditional marketing methods are still the best.
Transcend barriers – This this one of the most obvious advantages Internet marketing offers over the tradition method. With Internet marketing, your business would be able to reach markets that you're not able to reach before. Just like how you're able to talk to a person living in Russia with just a click of a button, the same thing applies to marketing your business. Internet Marketing is not bound by geographical limitations since everything is done online. You'll be able to showcase your products to customers thousands of miles away with Internet marketing. If you want your business to grow, marketing it online is the best decision you'll ever make.
Cheaper costs – The cost for marketing your business online is significantly cheaper compared to traditional means. Since everything is digital, launching a marketing campaign, designing a product pamphlets, disseminating it through various social media platforms is just a matter of pointing and clicking. In addition to that, the manpower needed and the cost involved to maintain that manpower is significantly lower. Through Internet marketing, companies can sell their wares directly to their customers. This eliminates the need for retail outlets to pay retail costs just to showcase and sell their product.
Ease of Data Gathering – To be able to effectively market your products to people, you must first identify which niche your business caters to. You must identify the type of customers that has a higher demand for your product. To do that, you must gather pertinent customer data and what better place to do that than the Internet. Online data gathering has never been so easy. With the advent of online data forms, data gathering not only takes a shorter amount of time, but also makes it easier to find people who are willing to answer your data gathering questionnaires.
A personalized sales experience – We've all been customers before. As customers we always want to feel that we're the sole focus of the company as we transition to making that buying decision. We want them to treat us like we're the most important customer in the world. In the physical world, we can probably address 2-3 customers at a time; not enough to make a significant impact in the overall sales experience of the customer. With Internet marketing, however, we can personalize a customer's sales experience easily. Since every transaction is done through a web browser, we're able to create certain programs or plug-ins that would recommend the best products to your customers. In addition to that, we can also show our customers similar products that might be of interest to them. Overall, this creates a sense of importance to the customer; that the company went out of their way to give them a fantastic sales experience.
Better customer interaction – Marketing your products and interacting with all your customers has never been this easy with Internet marketing. Because you're able to reach your customers far and wide, you'll be able to interact with them even after the sales process ends. The beauty of this whole thing is that you don't even have to leave the comfort of your home or office. You can reach your customers 24/7. You can ask them how they're enjoying their product, what other potential products they might need or maybe provide them some after sales support if their encountering any problems in using your product. This all comes down to making your customers feel that they've dealt with a real human being instead of some big corporate machine that's only interested in their money.

However, it is also not beyond the beginners' ability to learn rapidly: anyone with passion to do successful business on the internet can do this.
Designing a website is one of the basic skills you must possess before becoming an internet marketer. It used to be a requirement to have knowledge of HTML, CSS, XML, and other web design software languages. If you do possess these skills, you are be able to create websites according to your precise specifications. Apart from having these skills, you can join a website design platform (of which there are too many to go into here). These often have "drag and drop" templates. This will allow you to put up a very attractive website in almost no time at all.
These website templates are straight forward, and most have been designed for people who do not have the technical "computer language" skills to do their own programming. If the design of a website is not something you are good at, you can hire a good web designer to do the job for you.
The development of software is another category in Internet marketing business. In this category, you develop a tool (or software) according to a customers' specifications and preferences. This is a difficult task because it requires complex inputs (and something simple like a single comma instead of a period will actually stop the software from working)!
Development of websites is an easier skill to master than this. Some blog or website owners do require the service of software/apps developers from time to time. If you have this type of skill set, you can make good money by offering this service to customers across the globe.

Truly, all you need do is learn how to set up a blog or website and begin to send traffic to it. Once you begin to receive a substantial amount of traffic, you apply to an Ads Company to advertise on your website. Google AdSense, Facebook ads, and propeller ads, are good examples for you to look into. Search engine optimization and the placement of banner ads are excellent examples of internet advertising.
Probably the largest and most popular way to begin a career in Internet Marketing is by selling a product or service. Selling on the Internet is the most searchable opportunity and is a precondition for any internet marketing business. Most direct sales companies are now tending towards using the Internet as well. You will find that the majority of my articles, blog posts and YouTube videos are centered around this niche of Internet Marketing.
Although there are many, many marketers in this niche (and you may think there is "too much competition"- but you would be wrong!) the opportunities are truly endless. Selling products or services is basically a strategy that can reach a larger audience with fewer expenses.
Sales are made using email marketing, social media and websites. The method of selling depends on the company and the type of business or products you are trying to sell, as well as different methods of approaching your prospective clients. You can sign up to offer products through one of the auction sites on the internet (such as Amazon or E-bay) and earn smaller commissions with less overhead. Or, you can offer products directly and cut out the middle man! You can develop your own products very easily and keep all the profits. Or sign up affiliates to market and sell your products for you and pay them a commission and you keep the profits from that!

Pro-soda tax group will disclose donors, spokesman says
Katie Colaneri
Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney speaks at a rally held by Philadelphians for a Fair Future. (Emma Lee/WHYY)
The private nonprofit promoting Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney's plan for a tax on sugary drinks will disclose its donors, a spokesman for the group says.
At a press conference last week, Kenney introduced "Philadelphians for a Fair Future" — a coalition that includes education advocates, the NAACP and the unions representing teachers and service workers.
"You're going to hear a lot from 'Big Soda,'" he said. "It's going to be an air war. It's going to be a ground war, and there are going to be lobbyists out the wazoo, all right? And they're going to be making big money doing it.
"These are my lobbyists," he said, indicating the coalition backing him.
Kenney was making the point that his backers are citizens, not well-heeled commercial interests. But the reality is that the group is going to need some serious money to respond to the American Beverage Association's radio and social media campaign calling the mayor's proposal a "grocery tax."
However, it's not clear just who will be paying for the campaign to support the soda tax.
Kevin Feeley, a spokesman for Philadelphians for a Fair Future, said the group will go beyond what city law requires and reveal the names of donors, although he would not say how or when that would happen.
"We want to be as transparent as we can be," he said. "We anticipate that at some point donors and amounts will become public."
Feeley said Philadelphians for a Fair Future filed with the IRS as a "social welfare" nonprofit or 501(c)4 late last week.
Under the city's lobbying law, the group only has to report its donors if it engages in lobbying and then, only donors who give 10 percent or more of everything it gets in a given reporting period.
"So if they have no funders over 10 percent, if they're all below 10 percent, they would not have to disclose the sources of their funding," explained Shane Creamer, executive director of the Philadelphia Ethics Board.
The same rules also apply to the American Beverage Association fighting the tax.
And here's the other catch: These groups have to submit reports about their spending only if they spend more than $2,500 in a calendar quarter. The filing deadline is 30 days (or the next business day) after a quarter ends.
The first quarter is up on March 31, meaning Philadelphians for a Fair Future and the American Beverage Association have until May 2 to report their spending and, if applicable, their donors. The reporting deadline for the second quarter is Aug. 1, making it likey that these groups would not have to report most of their spending until months after City Council considers the tax.
The Kenney administration claims the tax would bring in $432 million over five years — although opponents say it would be more like $279 million — to pay for universal pre-K, community schools and a major overhaul of public parks, recreation centers and libraries.
Through service, activism and education, Philadelphians honored Dr. King while reconciling the traumatic events of the past 12 months.
