I'm admittedly a charity skeptic (I think the entire system of charitable giving in the U.S. is largely a corrupt racket). That being said... the ACLU has been known to go to bat for Nazis. They will also sell your information to the DCCC and every other shitlib PAC, expect to be getting letters from Nancy Pelosi and Steny Hoyer begging you to go to bat for the worst people in the Democratic party. Amnesty International accepts a huge amount of money from the Gates Foundation, and that money comes with strings, and those strings are frequently shitlib strings; they're expected to never address the fundamental issues with capitalism, any sort of corruption or human rights abuses linked with it, etc. The other one I hear a lot about on the left is the SPLC, which is much better politically than the other two, but is a complete loving poo poo-show internally. Medecins Sans Frontieres are pretty great, from everything I've heard. I also give to my local tenants union, and contribute to certain progressive politicians (There's a GOONPAC thread here if you were interested in giving that way), but you should be looking at charities that have things they have done *LATELY*. My local tenants union helped push through two pieces of major reform legislation last year, but a non-profit can wildly change from year to year if the staffing changes, or key personnel leave.
