Victoria Law | Reproductive Health Care in Women's Prisons "Painful" and "Traumatic"
http://truth-out.org/news/item/29660-reproductive-health-care-in-women-s-prisons-painful-and-traumatic
Victoria Law, Truthout: In prisons across the United States, women report that reproductive "care" ranges from a dangerous absence of care and complaints that go ignored, to processes that are painful and humiliating. As a result, many incarcerated women refuse routine medical examinations.
Why the Climate Change Movement Must Demand Energy Industry Nationalization
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/29745-why-the-climate-change-movement-must-demand-energy-industry-nationalization
Bruce Lesnick, Truthout: When fossil fuel companies' profits correlate with the amount of coal, oil and natural gas they burn, we shouldn't expect them to stop because we ask them to quit harming the planet. If we're serious about addressing climate change, nationalization of the energy industry must become a central organizing demand.
Richard Falk on the Aftermath of Operation Protective Edge in Gaza
http://truth-out.org/news/item/29678-richard-falk-on-the-aftermath-of-operation-protective-edge-in-gaza

The Corruption of Keystone: Congressional Permits to Drill Don't Change Public Opinion
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/29812-the-corruption-of-keystone-congressional-permits-to-drill-don-t-change-public-opinion
Rebecca Adamson, Truthout: A social license to operate is the only permit that Congress can't grant TransCanada operators, and it's only a matter of time before they learn their lesson: Bad governance is bad for business.
Norway: The Two Faces of Extremism
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/29895-norway-the-two-faces-of-extremism
Hugh Eakin, The New York Review of Books: With Anders Behring Breivik, the man charged with the attacks that killed at least 93 people in Norway, has come the ominous knowledge that it takes only one jihadist - or counter-jihadist - to change everything, and that right-wing, anti-immigration politics and jihadism are mutually reinforcing.
Why Is Climate Denier David Koch on the Board of Top Science Museums? Letter Urges Cutting of Ties
http://truth-out.org/news/item/29911-why-is-climate-denier-david-koch-on-the-board-of-top-science-museums-letter-urges-cutting-of-ties
Amy Goodman, Democracy Now!: The nation's top museums are facing calls to cut ties with billionaire funders who profit from global warming.

Military Strategy? Who Needs It? The Madness of Funding the Pentagon to "Cover the Globe"
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/29897-military-strategy-who-needs-it-the-madness-of-funding-the-pentagon-to-cover-the-globe
William D. Hartung, TomDispatch: Current levels of Pentagon spending may not be able to support current defense strategy. The answer to this problem is right before our eyes: Cut the money and change the strategy. That would be acting in the name of a conception of national security that was truly strategic.
Sorry, Monsanto: The Science Is on Our Side, Not Yours
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/29899-sorry-monsanto-the-science-is-on-our-side-not-yours
Katherine Paul, Organic Consumers Association: It's ironic that the biotech industry would pretend to side with the scientists sounding the alarm on global warming - when the largest contributor to global warming is industrial agriculture, with its GMO monoculture crops.

http://truth-out.org/news/item/29898-swarthmore-students-launch-first-indefinite-occupation-for-fossil-fuel-divestment
Kate Aronoff, Waging Nonviolence: Swarthmore's reputation may now hinge on how it responds to students and the growing campus community calling for divestment. This spring, the eyes of the world will be on Swarthmore and other colleges as they are forced to answer to student organizers and their growing base of supporters.
