d-life-and-what-we-might-do-to-end-it
Michael D. Yates, Truthout: Isn't it time for us to become protagonists, go=
on the offensive, attack our enemies head-on, study and learn from both su=

t happens? We don't have that much to lose.

?
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/29716-why-can-t-one-of-america-s-most-pr=
ogressive-cities-reform-its-police-force
Zo=C3=AB Carpenter, The Nation: Portland's reform efforts come in the conte=

http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/29719-dueling-visions-the-cpc-people-=
s-budget-vs-the-budget-for-the-1
Robert Borosage, Campaign for Our Future: The question really is who is the=
master? Who does government serve? Revealingly, the Congressional Progress=
ive Caucus People's Budget provides for public financing of elections, seek=
ing to limit the corruptions of big money. Republicans, not surprisingly, o=

taught-13-years-for-pentagon
Marisa Taylor and Kevin G. Hall, McClatchy DC: To his supporters, Jaime Gar=

State of the Art
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/29731-state-of-the-art
John Steppling, John Steppling's Blog: The role of culture today is differe=
ntly defined. But that happened gradually, starting perhaps all the way bac=
k in the 1950s. The taste for surface oriented art - witty, ironic, but res=
istant to, or immune to, prolonged contemplation - was convenient, as take-=
out Chinese food is convenient.
