Move Afoot to Overturn Hyde Amendment Restrictions on Abortion
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/28940-move-afoot-to-overturn-hyde-amendm=
ent-restrictions-on-abortion
Eleanor J. Bader, Truthout: A coalition of more than 60 national and local =
organizations, called All* Above All, is organizing to highlight the discri=
minatory impact of the federal Hyde Amendment, a 38-year-old law that restr=
icts low-income women from using Medicaid to pay for abortions in 32 states=
and the District of Columbia.
A History of Killing Black Men and Getting Away With It
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/28909-killing-black-men-and-getting-a=
way-with-it
Jack Shuler, Truthout: On February 8, 1968, white patrolmen killed three pe=
ople and wounded 28 at a historically black college in Orangeburg, South Ca=
rolina. The patrolmen were exonerated. If we don't address past as well as =
recent police shootings, the United States is telling black men that their =
lives don't matter.
The Crises Are Urgent, So Let's Slow Down
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/28945-the-crises-are-urgent-so-let-s-=
slow-down
H=C3=A9nia Belalia, Truthout: Fast-paced organizing often causes us to repe=
at the same mistakes that created this global mess in the first place, and =
it sacrifices the comprehensive dialogues that are key to our dismantling v=
iolent cycles of oppression.
Bill Moyers | The Fiery Cage and the Lynching Tree, Brutality's Never Far A=
way
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/28961-the-fiery-cage-and-the-lynching=
-tree-brutality-s-never-far-away
Bill Moyers, Moyers & Company: "It was hard to get back to sleep the night =
we heard the news of the Jordanian pilot's horrendous end. ISIS be damned! =
I thought. But with the next breath I could only think that our own barbari=
ans did not have to wait at any gate."
Israeli Consul: Supporters of Netanyahu's Speech Want to Humiliate Presiden=
t Obama
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/28963-israeli-consul-supporters-of-netan=
yahu-s-speech-want-to-humiliate-president-obama
Robert Naiman, Truthout: If any doubt remains that Speaker Boehner's invita=
tion to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to address Congress on Ma=
rch 3 represents a coordinated attack on President Obama by the right-wing =
noise machine, let Israel's consul general in Philadelphia, Yaron Sideman, =
put it to rest.
A Brief History of Happiness: How the US Lost Track of the Good Life - and =
Where to Find It Now
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/28959-a-brief-history-of-happiness-ho=
w-the-us-lost-track-of-the-good-life-and-where-to-find-it-now
Sarah van Gelder, YES! Magazine: For decades, we've been taught that econom=
ic growth and buying more stuff will make us happy - while trashing the pla=
net. The good news is that there's a better kind of happy: It starts with m=
eaningful work, loving relationships and a thriving natural world.
Dean Baker | Economy Adds 257,000 Jobs in January
http://truth-out.org/news/item/28966-economy-adds-257-000-jobs-in-january
Dean Baker, The Center for Economic and Policy Research: The Labor Departme=
nt reported that the economy added 257,000 new jobs in January. With upward=
revisions to the prior two months' data, this brings the average over the =
last three months to 336,000 jobs. The unemployment rate was essentially un=
changed at 5.7 percent.
Will Shell's Drilling Rigs Find the Welcome Mat or the Boot in Seattle?
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/28964-will-shell-s-drilling-rigs-find-th=
e-welcome-mat-or-the-boot-in-seattle?tsk=3Dadminpreview
Martha Baskin, Truthout: A coalition of state and national environmental gr=
oups is fighting to keep Shell Oil from leasing a terminal in the Port of S=
eattle - to aid its Alaskan drilling operations - and to send a message to =
the oil industry that climate policy is not beyond local consideration.
European Central Bank to Greece: Drop Dead
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/28960-ecb-to-greece-drop-dead
Yves Smith, Naked Capitalism: Americans have become used to banks taking ho=
uses under dubious pretexts when both the investors and borrowers would do =
better with a writedown. But to see the European Central Bank try take a co=
untry is another matter entirely.
Obama Wants to End the Mining Industry's Free Ride on Public Land
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/28965-obama-wants-to-end-the-mining-indu=
stry-s-free-ride-on-public-land
Rachael Bale, Reveal From the Center for Investigative Reporting: For gener=
ations, everyone from individual miners to multinational corporations has b=
een able to dig up natural resources on federal land without having to pay =
a royalty to the federal government. The Obama administration wants to chan=
ge that.
Chile's LGBT Movement Wins Historic Victory With Approval of Civil Unions
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/28969-chile-s-lgbt-movement-wins-histori=
c-victory-with-approval-of-civil-unions
Monserrat Sepulveda, Waging Nonviolence: Rarely, do we activists get the op=
portunity to take out our rainbow flags and banners, not to stage a demonst=
ration, but to celebrate. On January 28, Chilean activists had that rare op=
portunity: after four years of intense work by LGBT organizations, a civil =
union law was passed by Congress.
