Big Players Promote Water Privatization
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/25308-big-players-promoting-water-privatization
Ellen Dannin, Truthout: Americans used to take water for granted, but the water shutoff in Detroit has taught us all important lessons. The private sector is willing to be ruthless in denying access to the most basic needs.
Rent or Tuition? The Growing Student Dilemma
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/25258-rent-or-tuition-the-growing-student-dilemma

Labor and the BDS Movement: Two Perspectives
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/25318-on-the-contrary-whose-side-are-you-on
Andrew Ross and Jo-Ann Mort, New Labor Forum: For too long, the debate about how best to oppose the occupation of Palestine has been clouded, often intentionally, by strenuous deliberations over tactics. Trade unions are no strangers to these contests. Two activists debate the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement.

http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/25323-report-criticizes-epa-oversight-of-injection-wells
