HIV Is Not a Murder Weapon: Racism and the Criminalization of AIDS
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/32956-hiv-is-not-a-murder-weapon-racism-and-the-criminalization-of-aids
Toshio Meronek, Truthout: Treating HIV as a "weapon," early AIDS crisis-era laws against HIV transmission spread stigma and legal problems for people living with HIV. Now, advocates are working to challenge these biases and laws, like those that landed college wrestler Michael Johnson in prison.
The Quiet Speech of a Hard Man
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/32968-the-quiet-speech-of-a-hard-man
William Rivers Pitt, Truthout: The complexities orbiting Pope Francis are like a nest of planets. He champions the poor while his doctrine would force millions of women into poverty and servitude. He champions equality while his doctrine denounces LGBTQ people for simply being who they are.

http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/32955-no-system-of-oppression-can-last-mustafa-barghouti-on-activism-to-liberate-palestine
David Palumbo-Liu, Truthout: Palestinian human rights activist and civil society leader Mustafa Barghouti shares his perspective on the increasingly urgent situation in the occupied Palestinian territories, recent international developments and what Americans interested in Palestinian rights could and should do to support their movement.
Reversing the Tide: Cities and Countries Are Rebelling Against Water Privatization, and Winning
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/32963-reversing-the-tide-cities-and-countries-are-rebelling-against-water-privatization-and-winning
Tom Lawson, Occupy.com: Known as remunicipalization, more and more communities and governments are choosing to resist and reverse private water contracts.

For These Borrowers and Lenders, Debt Is a Relationship Based on Love
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/32964-for-these-borrowers-and-lenders-debt-is-a-relationship-based-on-love
Nathan Schneider, YES! Magazine: The debts worth having, it seems to me, are the ones that allow us to be more fully ourselves, that we honor with our freedom rather than our servitude. Perhaps one day financiers will live not by enforcing constraints, but through the inspiration of their debtors.
The Pope Says Greed Is Not Good
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/32967-the-pope-says-greed-is-not-good
The Daily Take Team, The Thom Hartmann Program: Pope Francis is reminding us that the endless pursuit of profit and the monetization of everything are not ways to achieve justice and equality for all. We cannot worship the almighty dollar if we want to make a more prosperous society for everyone.

Greg Gordon, McClatchy DC: Sixty US and foreign environmental groups say the Food and Drug Administration is dragging its feet in complying with an international treaty that calls for scaling back the use of dental fillings containing highly toxic mercury. The groups want the US State Department to pressure the FDA to comply.
Bankruptcy Is a "Huge Opportunity" to Privatize Schools Says EdBuild
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/32960-bankruptcy-is-a-huge-opportunity-to-privatize-schools-says-edbuild
Jonas Persson, PR Watch: The school privatization movement has long sought to usher in a brave new world of "free market" schools. But the transition to for-profit education has been too slow for some advocates who have some new and rather drastic ideas on how to pick up the pace.
Taking It Lying Down vs. Plain Old Lying
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/32965-taking-it-lying-down-vs-plain-old-lying
Donald Kaul, OtherWords: At the latest Republican debate, with a stage full of candidates straining to distinguish themselves by puncturing the balloon that is "The Donald," it was Carly Fiorina who stepped forward to reveal his clown show for what it was - and it turns out she's a liar, too.
On Government Lies, Human Bonfires and the Search for Truth
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/32959-on-government-lies-human-bonfires-and-the-search-for-truth

The UN: Are Development and Peace Empty Words?
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/32966-the-un-are-development-and-peace-empty-words
Ray Acheson and Rebecca Johnson, openDemocracy: Relentless militarism, underpinned by patriarchal capitalist structures, are at the root of today's security crises. As the UN General Assembly gathers in New York this week, governments need to take more responsibility for tackling the weapons, arms trade and conflicts that their policies have created and exacerbated.
