http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/32857-fifty-years-since-voting-rights-act-passed-marchers-from-selma-to-dc-demand-its-restoration
Candice Bernd, Truthout: Fifty years since the civil rights march from Selma to Montgomery, Alabama, and the subsequent passage of the Voting Rights Act, a 1,000-mile "Journey for Justice" from Selma to Washington, DC, is calling for the act's restoration, and for the advancement of a broader racial justice agenda.

On Police Injustice: "Fires of Rebellion Burn With Rage, but They Shine With Hope"
http://www.truth-out.org/progressivepicks/item/32858-on-police-injustice-fires-of-rebellion-burn-with-rage-but-they-shine-with-hope
Kristian Williams, AK Press: We can see in moments of rebellion not only anger and grief, but also an almost instinctual feeling for the demands of justice, an urgent recognition of the humanity of the oppressed, and a sense of possibility for a different kind of life, a new society.

Snap Election in Greece: No Matter the Outcome, Neoliberalism Reigns Supreme
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/32874-snap-election-in-greece-no-matter-the-outcome-neoliberalism-reigns-supreme
Vassiliki Siouti, Truthout: The outcome of the snap election in Greece is a foregone conclusion. Greeks realize that no matter which of the major parties wins, the new government will implement a neoliberal program that has been designed by Greece's official creditors. 

California Moves to Regulate Medical Marijuana Industry
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/32855-california-moves-to-regulate-medical-marijuana-industry

The GOP Agenda (or Lack Thereof)
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/32860-the-gop-agenda-or-lack-thereof
Donald Kaul, OtherWords: To hear Republican presidential candidates tell it, you'd think the most important issue facing the nation is Hillary Clinton's old emails - not climate change, not the growing gap between the filthy rich and the poor, and not our declining schools or tattered criminal legal system.

The Wall Street Journal's Attempt to Take Down Bernie Sanders Backfired
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/32863-the-wall-street-journal-s-attempt-to-take-down-bernie-sanders-backfired
The Daily Take Team, The Thom Hartmann Program: Unfortunately The Wall Street Journal's analysis of Sanders' proposals isn't just another routine example of shoddy corporate journalism. It shows how the corporate media tries to discredit and discard anyone who they can't control.

How Senate Hopefuls Keep Donors Secret From Voters Until It's Too Late
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/32873-how-senate-hopefuls-keep-donors-secret-from-voters-until-it-s-too-late
Derek Willis and Robert Faturechi, ProPublica: Voters can click a mouse to view an up-to-date list of who's contributed to candidates for the presidency and the US House. But the law still allows Senate candidates to file campaign reports on paper, making it nearly impossible to keep up with the flow of money.

http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/32856-land-trusts-offer-houses-people-with-lower-incomes-can-afford-and-a-stepping-stone-to-lasting-wealth
Penn Loh, YES! Magazine: One of the key debates over the community land trust model is whether they help lower-income residents to build wealth or lock them into subsidized housing. More than 200 land trusts around the country are helping struggling families buy their first homes, but often in gentrifying neighborhoods.

Still No Democratic Debates; What's Going on?
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/32862-still-no-democratic-debates-what-s-going-on
Dave Johnson, Campaign for America's Future: There hasn't been even a hint of a Democratic candidate debate. What's going on? Why are the Democrats letting Republicans have the attention? Do they feel the party has nothing to offer - or something to hide?
