Another one-click break from the daily news grind...it's the next in a series in which you try to identify a progressive hero from a brief bio. This week, it's a two-fer: two people working together to make a positive difference....
Even with the lack of backbone among people in government who claim to be progressive, we can still find many others who are standing up for progressive principles. This week's "Who Am I" highlights a contemporary example. [That's a clue, too.]
Here's the bio:
We're a married couple who made substantial contributions to Human Rights Watch and ACLU
We're founders of the Center for Responsible Lending, the Center for American Progress and and Pro-Publica.
We're two of the 40 billionaires who have pledged to give half of our wealth to charitable causes.
