Schools as Punishing Factories: The Handcuffing of Public Education
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/32238-schools-as-punishing-factories-the=
-handcuffing-of-public-education
Henry A. Giroux, Truthout: While the video of an 8-year-old boy handcuffed =
in an elementary school classroom in Kentucky has rightfully drawn media at=
tention, the boy's treatment was far from unique: Police are increasingly c=
riminalizing the behavior of children of color and those with disabilities.=
This trend reflects our society's domination by an elite that fears the po=
tential of educated youth to question authority and challenge the status qu=
o.
Black People Can't Vote If We're Dead
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/32224-black-people-can-t-vote-if-we-re-d=
ead
William C. Anderson, Truthout: The presidential candidates are trying harde=
r to appeal to Black voters, but merely getting candidates to address the s=
pectacle of Black death in the United States will not yield real change. Wh=
ite supremacy is a system that will never be subdued through any of the met=
hods it has created.
A Bold and Brilliant New Moment in the Struggle for Black Liberation
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/32225-a-bold-and-brilliant-new-moment-in=
-the-struggle-for-black-liberation
Lamont Lilly, Truthout: The recent Movement for Black Lives National Conven=
ing will have ongoing effects on Black organizing, writes one participant, =
because the historic gathering showed the power of connecting people in an =
inclusive, loving space. More than 1,500 Black activists and organizers cam=
e together at the event in Cleveland.
Hiroshima and the Safety of Historical Distance
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/32254-hiroshima-and-the-safety-of-his=
torical-distance
Kelly Hayes, Transformative Spaces: Pandora's box swung open 70 years ago t=
oday, and as a nation, we still largely argue that it was for the best. Thi=
s is not shocking, even when we review the horrid realities of our attacks =
on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Could Scott Walker's Legal Victory Expand PAC Superpowers?
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/32239-could-scott-walker-s-legal-victory=
-expand-pac-superpowers
Robert Faturechi, ProPublica: A Wisconsin Supreme Court ruling on Gov. Scot=
t Walker's campaign practices clears the way for state candidates to work m=
ore closely with legally independent political groups and their enormous wa=
r chests. The big unanswered question is how far ripples from the case migh=
t spread.
New Developments in Julian Assange's Epic Struggle for Justice
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/32194-new-developments-in-julian-assange=
-s-epic-struggle-for-justice
John Pilger, Truthout: WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange now faces an August=
20 expiration of the statute of limitations on Sweden's sexual misconduct =
case against him - a case that two writers from Women Against Rape have des=
cribed as being manipulated for political reasons. What is the next step in=
the campaign against the noted whistleblower?
Welcome Back to Smoke-Filled, Back-Room Politics
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/32240-welcome-back-to-the-smoked-fill=
ed-back-rooms
The Daily Take Team, The Thom Hartmann Program: Nobody wants to admit it, b=
ut our political process is rapidly going back to the days when cigar-smoki=
ng insiders handpicked the nominees, except this time it's not corrupt poli=
tical bosses choosing who they want to run for president, it's billionaires=
like the Koch brothers.
On Hiroshima Anniversary, Peacemakers March on Los Alamos Nuclear Weapons L=
ab
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/32251-on-hiroshima-anniversary-peacemake=
rs-march-on-los-alamos-nuclear-weapons-lab
Amy Goodman, Democracy Now!: On the 70th anniversary of the US bombing of H=
iroshima and Nagasaki, peace activists from across the nation are convening=
in Los Alamos, New Mexico, birthplace of the atomic bomb and home to the c=
ountry's main nuclear weapons laboratory and the site of ongoing nuclear de=
velopment.
Five Ideas That Matter but Fox Won't Address in the Presidential Debate
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/32243-five-ideas-that-matter-but-fox-=
won-t-address-in-the-presidential-debate
Lisa Graves, PR Watch: Pundits have wasted hours guessing which 10 of the 1=
7 White House contestants FOX would choose for its version of Donald Trump'=
s ''Miss USA pageant.'' But there's been too little time spent discussing c=
rucial issues that directly affect the lives of millions of US families.
Entering the Nuclear Age, Body by Body
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/32248-entering-the-nuclear-age-body-by-b=
ody
Susan Southard, TomDispatch: Nagasaki: Life After Nuclear War is a hair-rai=
sing, breathtaking look at what the experience of nuclear war was really li=
ke through the eyes of five survivors of the Nagasaki bomb, all teenagers. =
The book offers a riveting, if chilling, plunge into nuclear realities.
Planned Parenthood Vote Highlights the GOP's Broken Moral Compass
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/32242-planned-parenthood-vote-highlig=
hts-the-gop-s-broken-moral-compass
Andrea Flynn, Next New Deal: Given that members of the "pro-life" party are=
willing to shut down the government over reproductive health access even a=
s they ignore and exacerbate the actual crises that threaten our families a=
nd communities, we must question the alignment of the compass they're follo=
wing.
Egypt's Military Economy
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/32219-egypt-s-military-economy
Cristina Casab=C3=B3n, openDemocracy: In Egypt, one person in four lives be=
low the poverty line. No one knows the army's real share of the economy, bu=
t it is estimated at around 40 percent of the GDP. The army is increasing i=
ts economic power and is free to impose the conditions it deems suitable.
Bernie Sanders, Speak Up: Militarism and Corporate Power Are Fueling Each O=

http://act.rootsaction.org/p/dia/action3/common/public/?action_KEY=3D11541
Overcoming militarism is just as vital as overcoming oligarchy. We won't be=
able to do one without the other. Ask Bernie Sanders to oppose militarism =
here.
