Poverty, Jail, Media Harassment: The Worst Year of This Mother's Life
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/30643-poverty-jail-media-harassment-the-worst-year-of-this-mother-s-life
Shanesha Taylor, Truthout: After her arrest last year, Shanesha Taylor was subjected to brutal demonization in the media and the courts. Taylor, a single mother of three, recalls how her dire economic situation and struggle to find gainful employment led to her criminalization for being "poor while Black."
Challenging a "Disposable Future," Looking to a Politics of Possibility
http://www.truth-out.org/progressivepicks/item/30594-challenging-a-disposable-future-looking-to-a-politics-of-possibility
Victoria Harper, Truthout: In this interview with Brad Evans and Henry A. Giroux, the public intellectuals discuss their forthcoming book, what they mean by "disposable futures" and "dystopian realism," and how the spectacle of violence has contributed to a mistaken societal view that there is no future except a brutal one under neoliberal capitalism.
William Rivers Pitt | They Call It "Labor" for a Reason
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/30698-they-call-it-labor-for-a-reason
William Rivers Pitt, Truthout: Motherhood is work, but it is noble work, blessed work, and the dividends paid when the job is done right do not just reward the mother. They reward the entire world, and that - in this degraded day and age - must be valued beyond the possibility of account.
Mothers of Resistance
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/30651-mothers-of-resistance
Samantha Sarra, Truthout: In Cuba, Australia, Central America and around the world, mothers remain on the front lines of justice work. Whether defending the rights of their imprisoned children or their own rights, these mothers of resistance are fighting for a better, more equitable tomorrow for the next generation.
Is the Government Harassing and Censoring Scientists for Studying Ties Between Pesticides and Bee Deaths?
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/30699-is-the-federal-government-harassing-and-censoring-its-own-scientists-for-studying-ties-between-pesticides-and-bee-deaths
Reynard Loki, AlterNet: Following reports that federal scientists are being harassed and their research on bee-killing pesticides is being censored or suppressed, a broad coalition of farmers, environmentalists, fisheries and food-safety organizations has urged the US Department of Agriculture to investigate the claims.
Lakota Sioux Tribe Invokes "Bad Men" Treaty Clause Over Keystone Pipeline
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/30696-lakota-sioux-tribe-invokes-bad-men-treaty-clause-over-keystone-pipeline
Emerson Urry, EnviroNews: The Lower Brule Lakota Sioux Tribe of South Dakota invoked a clause from the Fort Laramie Treaty of 1868, wherein the US government agreed to "proceed at once to cause the offender to be arrested and punished according to the laws of the United States." The accused "offender" in this case: foreign tar sands pipeline company TransCanada.
Women Farmers Rewrite Their History in Chile's Patagonia Region
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/30697-women-farmers-rewrite-their-history-in-chile-s-patagonia-region
Marianela Jarroud, Inter Press Service: More than 100 women small farmers from Chile's southern Patagonia region have joined together in a new association aimed at achieving economic autonomy and empowerment, in an area where machismo and gender inequality are the norm.
Taking My Students to Prison
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/30700-taking-my-students-to-prison
Jean Trounstine, The Rag Blog: "Every semester my students from Voices Behind Bars, a class I teach at Middlesex Community College in Massachusetts, go to prison," Trounstine writes. In this account, the author notes that the students learned firsthand that prison is not just a physical place, but a deep wound.
Converting the Fossil-Fuel Fundamentalists
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/30695-converting-the-fossil-fuel-fundamentalists
Emily Schwartz Greco, OtherWords: Pope Francis is redefining the ongoing transition to greener energy as a moral and spiritual obligation. Once the Holy See officially condemns worship at the altar of dirty energy, fossil-fuel fundamentalists may need to choose between what their church demands and what the oil, gas, and coal industries dictate.
