The Daily Take Team, The Thom Hartmann Program: Despite the progress made since the Civil Rights Act of 1964, this country still has a very long way to go.

http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/24728-why-harris-and-hobby-lobby-spell-disaster-for-working-women
Sarah Jaffe, In These Times: Both the SCOTUS Hobby Lobby and Harris decisions rested on narrowly tailored legal arguments that just happen to cut wide enough to impact groups of workers who are almost exclusively female. If you are not affected by these rulings yet, you well could be in the future.

http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/24740-cheneys-campaign-for-iraq-war-3-shaping-the-narrative

http://www.truth-out.org/progressivepicks/item/24711-domestic-care-for-family-members-isnt-valued-if-its-givers-are-exploited
Sheila Bapat, Ig Publishing: Domestic workers have been excluded from labor protections that workers in the rest of the economy take for granted. However, in the past decade, a growing movement has emerged calling for domestic workers to share in the same rights guaranteed to others.

http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/24548-children-of-the-same-sorrow-the-us-mexico-caravan-for-peace-takes-on-the-drug-war

Child Migrants and Media Half-Truths
http://truth-out.org/news/item/24739-child-migrants-and-media-half-truths
Laura Carlsen, CIP Americas Program: While the American mainstream media has suddenly turned its attention to the long-standing issue of child refugees fleeing their home countries to the US southern border, they generally mischaracterize the circumstances surrounding the phenomenon which is causing more harm than good.
Slow Rites, Fast Wrongs: Migrant Workers Killed in Italian Factory Fire Wait 203 Days for Funeral
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/24734-slow-rites-fast-wrongs
Betsy Krause and Massimo Bressan, Truthout: A funeral for the victims who died in a Tuscany factory fire was held 203 days after that tragic dawn. The long span of time between the deaths and the mourning rite was poignantly ironic given the furiously fast conditions that defined these migrant workers' lives.

http://truth-out.org/news/item/24727-brazilian-workers-buck-union-officials-to-strike
