-the-spectacle-of-postracial-violence
Henry A. Giroux, Truthout: From Ferguson to Baltimore, and across the Unite=
d States, police violence against people of color and the criminalization o=
f poverty have put the lives of young people, especially Black youth, in da=
nger. Now, youth-led social movements are resisting this racist spectacle o=
f state violence, and not just calling for police reforms, but for structur=
al changes to address institutional racism.

http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/30976-senate-starts-to-rethink-mass-surv=
eillance-checking-executive-spying-power
Shahid Buttar, Truthout: After a hard-fought congressional debate, the Sena=

Julie Dermansky, DeSmogBlog: Issuing a permit for the northern route of the=

Janet Redman, Foreign Policy in Focus: One of the most promising forms of i=

Kate Aronoff, Waging Nonviolence: The question of whether Bernie Sanders is=
more progressive than Hillary Clinton becomes more and more irrelevant as =
the 2016 race heats up. For the next presidential candidate to produce chan=

http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/30992-lies-not-mistakes-led-to-invasi=

Paul Krugman, Krugman & Co.: Jeb Bush definitely did us a favor: In attempt=
ing not to talk about the past, he ended up bringing back the discussion of=
the Iraq war, which many political and media figures have been trying to a=
void. The crucial thing to understand is that the invasion wasn't a mistake=
; it was a crime. We were lied into war.
