Union Members' Radio

Donation protected
Hello to all labor union, middle-class, and civil rights supporters and advocates. Union Members' Radio, a production of Axon Promotions, is in need of your financial contributions TODAY in order to remain broadcasting into our third season. Without your aid, we are powerless and have no voice...so please do not remain silent. "In the End, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends." -MLK JR.

Our mission is: 1) help unite and bring solidarity to all the various unions, much like the AFL-CIO does; 2) encourage union membership and active union
participation; 3) educate those who know little to nothing about unions or have misconceptions about their important role in labor, civil rights, and middle-class issues; 4) challenge the thinking of all who create and uphold union busting legislation and ideologies; 5) promote people over profits.

Our story started over a year and a half ago when we recognized that the average person who bashes unions and defends union-busting legislation has a lack of historical knowledge of how unions created the middle-class and how they contribute greatly to civil rights for all members of society. This lack of knowledge and education is due to many factors, and mainly sustained through the influence of conservative talk radio. This is why we are on a conservative station...to agitate and eventually change the thinking of those who stand against us. Some unions have argued that it is a waste of breath and therefore will not support our cause. Hmm, what would they say if we were on a liberal or union-friendly station? They might say that we are again wasting our breath simply preaching to the choir...the bottom line is they are excusing themselves from supporting our show. So the question is: will you? We also recognized union solidarity and low union membership and participation to be issues of great concern. Therefore, having constant open dialogue about these matters, as we do on our show, is the best method to help bridge these gaps.

In 2016 when we recognized these issues, we could stand silent no more and thus decided to create Union Members' Radio as the only radio show in the Metro Detroit area to take on these issues as its primary purpose. From the beginning it has been a struggle to rally financial support. We somehow persevered through the first season and we were blessed to have received "some limited" support and great guests (visit our website to see a list of those who have contributed prior to this campaign). This second season is coming to an end and in order to remain broadcasting for a third season, we NEED your financial support TODAY!!!

Our show is growing and becoming more influential with each new broadcast. Eventually, with guests like you, we will make a positive impact in the Detroit area and perhaps beyond as we soon plan to broadcast in other major cities...NY...Buffalo...Minneapolis...and Washington DC.

Please stand with us by donating any amount you can. From $30 to ??? so that we can achieve our financial goal, or as close to it as possible. Reaching our goal within the time frame of this Go Fund Me campaign will make all the difference as to whether or not we will have  a successful third season.

When we look at other campaigns, we notice that they are able to give gifts per donation...unfortunetly, we cannot. We wish we could offer you an incentnive to donate as other campaigns do...but we do not have the means. However, we will proudly add your name to our website as a contributor for all the world to see! Hopefully, our Mission is your Mission and thus your incentive to donate.

Please feel free to call us or email us anytime with questions, comments, suggestions, or concerns.

Thank you!
