Richard D. Wolff | Socialism Means Abolishing the Distinction Between Bosses and Employees
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/31567-socialism-means-abolishing-the-distinction-between-bosses-and-employees
Richard D. Wolff, Truthout: Deepening criticisms of dysfunctional capitalism have renewed interest in basic economic system change, requiring that we clear up confusions over what differentiates socialism from both private and state capitalisms.
Our 18th Century Bill of Rights Needs Revising
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/31510-our-18th-century-bill-of-rights-needs-revising
Judith Blau, Truthout: There is no denying that the Bill of Rights was progressive at the time it was written - in 1791 - advancing civil, political and property rights. However, while European countries have updated their constitutions to include economic, social and cultural rights, the US has lagged behind.
In Pursuit of Human Rights: Thirteen Personal Stories
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/31545-in-pursuit-of-human-rights-thirteen-personal-stories
Eleanor J. Bader, Truthout: In a new compilation reader, Voice of Witness draws from 13 books of oral histories, allowing readers to hear directly from people who have experienced war, poverty and miscarriages of justice throughout the world. The first person accounts are emotional, revelatory stories not often found in mainstream media.
Military Sexual Assault Reform Stalls Again
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/31549-military-sexual-assault-reform-stalls-again
s.e. smith, Care2: Another attempt at addressing the epidemic of military sexual assault just failed in Congress, illustrating the partisan divide on the subject. New York Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand wants to take the authority for handling rape cases out of the chain of command and make it the responsibility of outside military prosecutors.
Rise in Carbon Dioxide Could Restrict Growing Days for Crops
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/31553-rise-in-co2-could-restrict-growing-days-for-crops
Tim Radford, Climate News Network: While plants in temperate zones may benefit from higher temperatures, global warming's impact in the tropics threatens catastrophe for food security. Some regions could lose up to 200 growing days a year, and rising levels of carbon dioxide could also affect the quality of plant growth.
Political Profiteers Push Ohio's Pot Vote
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/31557-political-profiteers-push-ohio-s-pot-vote
Liz Essley Whyte, The Center for Public Integrity: Ohio's marijuana initiative, which would write into the state's constitution 10 specific land parcels and thus give the parcel owners exclusive control of the wholesale legal pot market, is an example of a ballot measure industry that is fueled by money from special interests that stand to benefit financially from the outcome of the vote.
The More They Dig, the More They Find: DDT Cleanup Continues for Mid-Michigan Town
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/31568-the-more-they-dig-the-more-they-find-ddt-cleanup-continues-for-mid-michigan-town
Brian Bienkowski, Environmental Health News: St. Louis, Michigan, has long dealt with contamination left behind by the Velsicol Chemical Corp., which manufactured pesticides until 1963 and abandoned loads of DDT. Officials are making progress, but more work remains and there is still no comprehensive health study.
Cycles of Oppression, Cycles of Liberation: The Nasa People of Colombia Are Dispossessed Once Again
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/31559-cycles-of-oppression-cycles-of-liberation-the-nasa-people-of-colombia-are-dispossessed-once-again
Natalia Fajardo, Toward Freedom: An intense struggle for dignity and the right to land is being waged right now in the green mountains of southwestern Colombia, and chances are, you haven't heard of it. Mainstream media coverage of the country has ignored attacks against communities defending their territory.
Australia Weighs Tax Penalty Attack on Environmental Advocacy Groups
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/31566-australia-weighs-tax-penalty-attack-on-environmental-advocacy-groups
Susan Laurance and Bill Laurance, The Conversation: The Australian government is considering stripping environmental advocacy groups that engage in public debate of their tax-free status. This is the latest assault, following attempts to ban environmental boycotts, moves to insert gag clauses into the contracts of community legal centers, the defunding of voluntary environmental and heritage organizations and the drafting of anti-protest laws.
The New York Times' Orwellian View of Ukraine
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/31565-the-new-york-times-orwellian-view-of-ukraine
Robert Parry, Consortium News: The New York Times is putting the lives of ourselves, our children and our grandchildren at risk with its reckless reporting on the Ukraine crisis, by setting up an unnecessary confrontation between nuclear-armed powers, the United States and Russia.
