Green Left Weekly is read across the country and around the world. It is distributed on the streets, through some shops, by subscriptions and via electronic mail.
How widely read is Green Left Weekly? A letter from a prisoner in Jackson, Georgia, gives some clue. It reads: “Would you please publish my name in the GLW personals section? If I find a friend as a result, perhaps she or he will pay for a subscription to GLW as Brandon's [Brandon Astor Jones -- regular GL columnist] copy is pretty beat up by the time all 30 of us get to read it.” The writer's name is Michael Cohen -- EF200868, PO Box 3877, Jackson, Georgia, G2-49, 30233, USA.
An airmail subscription for Green Left Weekly to the USA costs $120 for 44 issues (one year) or $60 for 22 issues (six months). Green Left itself is a financially struggling enterprise. Making ends meet on a weekly basis is about as much as we can expect.
If you'd like to help increase the circulation of the paper, you could buy a subscription. A subscription ensures you have a copy of the paper every week. It also provides valuable funds to help the paper continue its work. If you already have a subscription yourself, you may consider donating the money for Green Left to send one to Michael Cohen. Any current subscriber who does so will receive an extra eight issues of Green Left added to their subscription for free.
