As we reflect on 2025 👇

a year of profound loss, transition, and great challenges,

we also celebrate the enduring spirit that keeps this beacon of justice alive.

From honoring voices silenced too soon, to weathering cyberattacks and the uncertainty of relocation, we have leaned on the strength of our listeners, programmers, partners, and community at large to persevere.

Your support is the lifeline that keep the truth shining bright, shedding light about what's really happening in the world.

Your support this year has amplified music as resistance, art as healing, radio as revolution, and so much more.

Together, we move into 2026, inspired to build a better world--

one broadcast at a time.

Thank you for keeping Jazz & Justice alive 🙏
