Dollars for Endless War or Investment in a New Era?
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/22908-dollars-for-endless-war-or-investment-in-a-new-era
Mary Zerkel, Truthout: After over a decade of war, it is time to shift national priorities to a more realistic definition of security needs and to do away with the Pentagon's slush fund not subject to sequestration, the "Overseas Contingency Operations" fund.
Boosting the Minimum Wage to $10.10 an Hour Should Be a No-Brainer
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/22988-boosting-the-minimum-wage-to-1010-an-hour-should-be-a-no-brainer
Marjorie Elizabeth Wood, OtherWords: The Fair Minimum Wage Act would give millions of American workers a long-overdue raise. Today's $7.25-per-hour minimum isn't a living wage anywhere in America.

http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/22982-how-better-health-care-for-the-poor-makes-a-stronger-economy-for-all
Imara Jones, Yes! Magazine: Disproportionately, people of color are clustered in jobs that pay by the hour and are more vulnerable to income loss due to illness. That's why the long-term effect of the Affordable Care Act could be a big deal for the economic well-being of America's working poor.
Get Intersectional! Or, Why Your Movement Can't Go It Alone
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/22989-get-intersectional-or-why-your-movement-cant-go-it-alone
Kristin Moe, Yes! Magazine: People don't have one-dimensional lives and the issues that affect them aren't one-dimensional, either. They overlap. There's a word for this kind of thinking: "intersectionality."

In today's On the News segment: Those at the very top hold more of the wealth than at any time since 1928; thousands of teachers from across Oklahoma joined together to demand more money for public education; the International Monetary Fund says too-big-to-fail is still too much of a problem; and more.

Dr. Hakim, War Is a Crime: After a little girl was killed in a bomb attack in Afghanistan, her community and peace volunteers planted trees where the attack happened as a rejection of violence perpetrated by the Taliban, other militia, the Afghan government, and the US/NATO coalition of 50 countries.

http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/22983-showdown-in-a-company-town

But after a disastrous explosion at a Chevron facility, Richmond Mayor Gayle McLaughlin and the city council majority have taken a bold approach: suing the oil giant for harming local citizens.
