We Were Never Meant to Survive: A Response to the Attack in Charleston
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/31465-we-were-never-meant-to-survive-a-response-to-the-attack-in-charleston
Alicia Garza, Truthout: The suspect's words remind us that Black people in this country cannot consider ourselves safe anywhere. We cannot expect protection from the police or to be safe in swimming pools, in churches, in stores, on buses, in our communities or even in our homes.
Has Our Food Been Contaminated by Chevron's Wastewater?
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/31470-has-our-food-been-contaminated-by-chevron-s-wastewater
Daniel Ross, Truthout: A new report shows contaminants remain in Chevron's treated oil field wastewater, which is used to irrigate California's Kern Valley crops. Are these same chemicals making their way into the food chain?
The Religious Specter Haunting Revolution
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/31475-the-religious-specter-haunting-revolution
Michael Ignatieff, The New York Review of Books: While Israel remains the central focus of "The Paradox of Liberation," Michael Walzer has made a major contribution to the question of what's happening there simply by arguing that Israel may not be so special after all.
Changing a Toxic Environment and Food System: Regeneration or Degeneration?
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/31463-changing-a-toxic-environment-and-food-system-regeneration-or-degeneration
Ronnie Cummins, Organic Consumers Association: It's time to move beyond degenerate ethics, farming land use, energy policies, politics and economics; to move beyond "too little, too late" mitigation and sustainability strategies. It's time to inspire and mobilize a mighty global army of Regenerators, before it's too late.
For-Profit Hospitals Mark Up Prices Because There's Nothing to Stop Them
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/31464-commentary-for-profit-hospitals-mark-up-prices-by-more-than-1-000-percent-because-there-s-nothing-to-stop-them
Wendell Potter, Center for Public Integrity: If you think costs would come down if hospitals were all owned and operated by big for-profit corporations like Hospital Corporation of America, you might want to take a look at a study published last week by the journal "Health Affairs."
Australia's War on People Smugglers Is Really a War on Refugees
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/31466-australia-s-war-on-people-smugglers-is-really-a-war-on-refugees
Tony Iltis, Green Left Weekly: When Australian politicians talk about their "war on people smugglers" it is code for "war on refugees." Similarly, we should be skeptical of claims that calls for "stopping the boats" are based on concerns for maritime safety. If anyone had doubts, the horrific fate of the Rohingya refugees should dispel them.
The Triumph of Occupy Wall Street
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/31395-the-triumph-of-occupy-wall-street
By Michael Levitin, The Atlantic: Nearly four years after the precipitous rise of Occupy Wall Street, the movement so many thought had disappeared has instead splintered and regrown into a variety of focused causes. Income inequality is the crisis du jour - a problem that all 2016 presidential candidates must grapple with.
Senate Fast-Track Vote Tuesday - What We Must Do Now
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/31468-senate-fast-track-vote-tuesday-what-we-must-do-now
Dave Johnson, Campaign for America's Future: Fast track in essence preapproves the still-secret Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) and future corporate-deregulation and government-privatization agreements by setting aside the normal processes and procedures of our representative government. With fast track, Congress agrees to severely limit debate over these agreements.
Why Tribal Peoples Are the Best Conservationists
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/31467-why-tribal-peoples-are-the-best-conservationists
Staff, Survival: Tribal peoples are being illegally evicted from their ancestral homelands in the name of "conservation." It's often wrongly claimed that their lands are wildernesses even though tribal peoples have been dependent on, and managed, them for millennia.
Migrant Farmworkers Ask Ben and Jerry's to Provide "Milk With Dignity"
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/31469-migrant-farmworkers-ask-ben-jerry-s-to-provide-milk-with-dignity
Jonathan Leavitt, Toward Freedom: Ben & Jerry's might seem like an unlikely target, with its origin story of two tie-dyed hippies fighting for survival via guerrilla actions against a larger ice cream corporation, yet Victor Diaz is far from the only migrant farmworker experiencing wage theft, overcrowded, unsanitary housing and poverty wages.
Washington, DC in Wonderland, Down the Iraqi Rabbit Hole (Again)
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/31459-washington-in-wonderland-down-the-iraqi-rabbit-hole-again
Andrew Bacevich, TomDispatch: As the old adage goes, truth can be even stranger than fiction. For a real-life illustration of this phenomenon, one need look no further than Washington, DC and its approach to national security policy. Viewed up close, it all seems to hang together.

<p style="margin: 0;padding: 0;font-size: 100%;color: #444 !important;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;line-height: 1.1"><strong>By Michael Levitin, The Atlantic:</strong> Nearly four years after the precipitous rise of Occupy Wall Street, the movement so many thought had disappeared has instead splintered and regrown into a variety of focused causes.

<p style="margin: 0;padding: 0;font-size: 100%;color: #444 !important;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;line-height: 1.1"><strong>Dave Johnson, Campaign for America's Future:</strong> Fast track in essence preapproves the still-secret Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) and future corporate-deregulation and government-privatization agreements by setting aside the normal processes and procedures of our representative government. With fast track, Congress agrees to severely limit debate over these agreements.</p>
