6. Our Book Publishing

In November and December, we will publish Fenek Solère’s novel Rising, and Jef Costello’s The Importance of James Bond. Other books coming out soon include Anthony M. Ludovici’s autobiography, Confessions of an Anti-Feminist, and Christopher Pankhurst’s Numinous Machines.

7. Our Amazon Affiliate Membership

In March of 2015, under pressure from the SPLC, which was amplified in the pages of the Washington Post, Amazon.com dropped Counter-Currents from its Affiliate Marketing program, which earned us about $6,000/year — a substantial financial hit to a business as small as ours. The SPLC’s aim, of course, is to put us out of business. Fortunately, our readers have rallied to our aid.
