ing-is-severe-pervasive-irreversible
Dahr Jamail, Truthout: A recently released draft report of the UN's Intergo=

http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/26345-fascism-101-the-police-and-media-co=
ntrol
William Rivers Pitt, Truthout: If you are a cadet in training with the St. =
Louis County and Municipal Police Academy, good news! Beginning at 8 am on =

nnect-capitalist-culprits-to-climate-crisis
Matt Surrusco, Truthout: At the largest climate march in history, which saw=

Dean Baker | The Mysteries of Inequality Are Only Mysterious to Elites
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/26342-the-mysteries-of-inequality-are-onl=
y-mysterious-to-elites
Dean Baker, Truthout: The government openly acts to ensure that wages don't=

g"
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/25934-imagining-our-dark-and-stormy-futur=
e-naomi-kleins-this-changes-everything
Emily Johnston, Truthout: If you generally avoid reading about climate chan=
ge (out of paralysis, fear or grief) or wonder whether there's any hope, or=

-profit-colleges-as-american-dream-crushers-and-factories-of-debt
Astra Taylor and Hannah Appel, TomDispatch: In the past, US higher educatio=
n has always been associated with upward mobility, but with student loan de=
bt quadrupling between 2003 and 2013, it's time to ask whether education al=
one can really move people up the class ladder.
Can a "Firewall Strategy" Keep Big Energy Out of Climate Talks? It Worked f=
or Fighting Tobacco
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/26365-can-a-firewall-strategy-keep-big-e=
nergy-out-of-climate-talks-it-worked-for-fighting-tobacco

http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/26354-marijuana-decriminalization-a-raci=
al-justice-victory-in-philadelphia
Kate Aronoff, Waging Nonviolence: Philadelphia will soon become the largest=

of marijuana will carry with it a $25 fine and a citation.

http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/26344-attacking-j-street-won-t-bring-=
justice-for-palestinians
Robert Naiman, Truthout: Take issue with J Street, which seeks a two-state =
solution in the Middle East and also supported strikes on Gaza, but any pla=
usible vision for a future progressive victory includes J Street in the win=
ner's circle.
