As Raskin and Waskow wrote “A Call to Resist Illegitimate Authority” in 1967, they attempted to gather a group of influential intellectuals together in support of young draft resisters.
“Through March 1964, IPS received funds totaling $167,577.74, which included large grants from the Stern Family Fund, the Ford Foundation, the EDO Foundation and James Warburg. Three years later, Warburg donated $400,000 to IPS. The next largest donation in 1967, $25,000, came from the Samuel Rubin Foundation, followed by smaller contributions from Philip Stern and Irving Laucks of the Center for the Study of Democratic Institutions. The largest
contributions in 1968 came from Philip Stern, who gave IPS just over $91,000, in addition to another $11,000 from the Stern Family Fund. $30,000 came from the Samuel Rubin Foundation. The D.J. Bernstein Foundation contributed $50,000; donations of $17,000 came from the Carnegie Corporation; and the Field Foundation provided IPS with funds totaling $15,000.
IPS received $1,066,350 in assets from the estate of Daniel J. Bernstein, a wealthy Wall Street investor…The Samuel Rubin Foundation gave IPS over $300,000 in 1974-1975, but $255,000 of that went to helping IPS create the Transnational Institute. By the time of the 1975-1976 budget, IPS had reduced its budget shortfall to $110,000, which the board considered “manageable.”
Along with this one:
Resist has always been a different type of foundation.
Other signers and founding members include Grace Paley, Noam Chomsky, Howard Zinn, Robert Lowell, Barbara Guest, and Allen Ginsberg.

In 1963 Marcus Raskin co-founded IPS with Richard Barnett and in 1967 he wrote Resist’s founding document, “A Call to Resist Illegitimate Authority.”

A Message from Noam Chomsky, Resist Co-Founder
Today we are living through a health and economic crisis…We also feel a collective sorrow as the pandemic disproportionately ravages through Black and brown communities. And yet, these same communities are taking the helm and continuing the centuries-long resistance against white supremacy and police violence that has been with us since our country’s inception. These community leaders are essential.
COVID-19 and the mass uprisings across the country highlight the need to maintain justice as essential. Resist grantees have always known this to be true and have been on the frontlines, responding to the communities forgotten by the national response to COVID-19 and brutalized by the police…
In Solidarity,
Noam Chomsky
