t r u t h o u t | We, as a species, are coming up against a fundamental choice: Do we embrace our potential for good by coming together and working to reverse the damage we've done to each other and to the planet? Or do we choose the path of exploitation, separation and destruction? It's the duty of the storytellers - independent journalists, writers and media makers - to use their time to try to make this choice clear. Truthout needs your support to continue to bring this choice to the collective consciousness and spread the stories which must be told. Please join us today by making a tax-deductible donation.

Transgender, Gender-Nonconforming People Among First, Most Affected by War on Terror's Biometrics Craze
http://truth-out.org/news/item/8506-transgender-gender-non-conforming-people-among-first-most-affected-by-war-on-terrors-biometrics-craze
Alissa Bohling, Truthout: "Because gender has become one of the first markers in the technology-centric race for body-based data - known as 'biometrics' in surveillance-speak - transgender and gender non-conforming people have been some of the first and most directly affected. In an investigation begun during our Surveillance in the Homeland series on civil liberties in post-9/11 America, Truthout uncovered how their experiences illustrate what's at stake when the human body becomes a data point in the war on terror."
The War on Public-Sector Workers
http://truth-out.org/news/item/8539-the-war-on-public-sector-workers
Dean Baker, Truthout: "Politicians across the country are using heaping doses of the politics of envy to try to arouse the anger of workers.... The targets of these politicians' wrath are school teachers, firefighters, and other public-sector workers.... They are outraged that many of these workers still earn enough to support a middle-class family. Even more outrageous, many of these workers have traditional defined-benefit pensions that assure them a modicum of comfort in retirement."
Community Radio Poised for a Big Comeback as Activists Free the Airwaves
http://truth-out.org/news/item/8552-community-radio-poised-for-a-big-comeback-as-activists-free-the-airwaves
Mike Ludwig, Truthout: "After a decade-long grassroots campaign waged by community radio advocates, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is preparing to make room on the airwaves for hundreds of new low-power stations across the country. Avila said the opportunity comes at a crucial time. His community has suffered while living under the watch of rogue Sheriff Joe Arpaio and dealing with the harsh realities of tough anti-immigrant laws recently passed in Arizona."
Arizona Is the "Petri Dish" for ALEC's Corporate-Influenced Legislature
http://truth-out.org/news/item/8555-arizona-is-the-petri-dish-for-corporate-influenced-legislature
Yana Kunichoff, Truthout: "Arizona, with 49 out of 90 legislators with membership in the American Legislative Exchange Council, is a darling of the bill drafting body and home to several bills modeled on the council's legislation targeting workers compensation, unions and public education."
Chris Hedges | First They Come for the Muslims
http://truth-out.org/news/item/8553-first-they-come-for-the-muslims
Chris Hedges, Truthdig: "Tarek Mehanna, a U.S. citizen, was sentenced Thursday in Worcester, Mass., to 17 1/2years in prison. It was another of the tawdry show trials held against Muslim activists since 9/11 as a result of the government's criminalization of what people say and believe. These trials, where secrecy rules permit federal lawyers to prosecute people on 'evidence' the defendants are not allowed to examine, are the harbinger of a corporate totalitarian state in which any form of dissent can be declared illegal."
CISPA (aka SOPA 2.0) Pushed Forward by For-Profit Spying Lobby
http://truth-out.org/news/item/8538-cispa-aka-sopa-20-pushed-forward-by-for-profit-spying-lobby
Lee Fang, Republic Report: "A cyber security bill moving swiftly through Congress would give government intelligence agencies broad powers to work with private companies to share information about Internet users. While some critics are beginning to organize online against the legislation, defense contractors, many already working with the National Security Agency on related data-mining projects, are lobbying to press forward."
Israel Denies Entry to Hundreds in Day of Action
http://truth-out.org/video/item/8560-israel-denies-entry-to-hundreds-in-day-of-action
Lia Tarchansky, The Real News Network: "Dozens arrested in an international day of solidarity where 1500 activists tried to land in Israel's Ben Gurion Airport to travel to the occupied Palestinian territories."
Pink Slime Controversy Recalls Long History of Mishandling Mad Cow Outbreaks
http://truth-out.org/news/item/8474-pink-slime-controversy-recalls-another-meat-scandal-uss-history-of-mishandling-mad-cow-outbreaks
Martha Rosenberg, Truthout: "There is an upside for the beef industry and industry-friendly federal food safety officials when people talk about pink slime. The burger extender, known as lean, finely textured beef and made from beef fat scraps treated with ammonia to kill germs, was recently found to be posing as 'normal' ground beef in the National School Lunch Program, fast food outlets and grocery stores."
Frackers Outbid Farmers for Water in Colorado Drought
http://truth-out.org/news/item/8540-frackers-outbid-farmers-for-water-in-colorado-drought
Rebecca Leber, ThinkProgress: "Colorado is facing drought not seen since 2002, following the fourth-warmest and third-least-snowy winter in US history. Colorado State University scientists report that 98 percent of the state is facing these drought conditions. Colorado's hydrofracking boom - a technology that heavily relies on water - only adds additional strain as farmers and drillers bid for a scarce resource...."
On the News With Thom Hartmann: Buffett Rule Vote Faces Likely Filibuster in Senate, and More
http://truth-out.org/news/item/8566-on-the-news-with-thom-hartmann-buffett-rule-vote-faces-likely-filibuster-in-senate-and-more

World Bank Supports Harmful Water Corporations, Report Finds
http://truth-out.org/news/item/8543-world-bank-supports-harmful-water-corporations-report-finds
Johanna Treblin, Inter Press Service: "People in many developing countries often lack access to clean water, but the approach to remedy this problem has shifted in recent years to rely more on the private sector. Yet, as this new report and several other watchdog groups have shown, the change has been more harmful than helpful."
Economic Update | How Our Economic System Impacts Our Psychology
http://truth-out.org/news/item/8556-economic-update-how-our-economic-system-impacts-our-psychology
Richard D. Wolff, Economic Update/Truthout: "Economics Professor Richard D. Wolff and guests discuss the current state of the economy, both locally and globally in relation to the economic crisis. In the latest segment Wolff discusses the huge fines for major pharmaceutical firms, the long-standing and huge wealth redistribution from richer to poorer states by Washington, and the funding crisis in public higher education. The main interview features Dr. Harriet Fraad discussing the profound psychological costs of capitalism's instability."
What the Laws of War Allow: Do the WikiLeaks War Logs Reveal War Crimes - or the Poverty of International Law?
http://truth-out.org/news/item/8561-what-the-laws-of-war-allow
Chase Madar, TomDispatch: "The slaughter captured in [the Collateral Murder video], the most virally sensational of WikiLeaks' disclosures, was widely condemned as an atrocity worldwide, and many pundits quickly labeled it a 'war crime' for good measure. But was this massacre really a 'war crime' - or just plain-old regular war? ... It is, in fact, far from clear that this act, though plainly atrocious and horrific, was a violation of the laws of war."
Bill Moyers | Angela Glover Blackwell on the American Dream
http://truth-out.org/video/item/8550-angela-glover-blackwell-on-the-american-dream
Bill Moyers, Moyers & Company: "'I'm not discouraged, and I wouldn't even dream of giving up, because we're at a moment right now where I think we have more possibility than I've seen in my adult lifetime,' Blackwell tells Moyers. 'Part of what I've been feeling is that all the issues are finally on the table.... So many people who are being left behind are now in places where they have voice, and influence, and they're forcing their way into the conversation.'"
