The Booming Business of Border Exclusion
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/32455-the-booming-business-of-border-exclusion
Todd Miller, Truthout: US boundary builders don't want the general public to learn what is really happening along our border with Mexico and beyond. Now in construction is a high-tech fortress, a virtual surveillance wall created and increasingly administered by the private sector. It is the most massive, and now profitable, system of exclusion ever created in the United States.
"Between the World and Me": The Black Body Matters
http://www.truth-out.org/progressivepicks/item/32400-the-black-body-matters
Eisa Nefertari Ulen, Truthout: In Between the World and Me, author Ta-Nehisi Coates articulates the shared experiences of Black folk over the centuries. His singular story is edified by the communal I, the self that remembers and tells not only what one person endures, but what an entire people endure.
Sparking Curiosity for Truth in the Classroom: An Appreciation of "Between the World and Me"
http://www.truth-out.org/progressivepicks/item/32443-sparking-curiosity-for-truth-in-the-classroom-an-appreciation-of-ta-nehisi-coates-between-the-world-and-me
William Ayers, Truthout: Between the World and Me takes us deeper into life in schools and especially what the experience means to its captives. "I was a curious boy," Coates writes, "but the schools were not concerned with curiosity. They were concerned with compliance."
The Honduran Coup's Ugly Aftermath
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/32471-the-honduran-coup-s-ugly-aftermath
Jonathan Marshall, Consortium News: As Secretary of State in 2009, Hillary Clinton helped a right-wing coup in Honduras remove an elected left-of-center president, setting back the cause of democracy and enabling corrupt and drug-tainted forces to tighten their grip on the poverty-stricken country.
Five Questions Every Presidential Candidate Needs to Answer About Education
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/32472-five-questions-every-presidential-candidate-needs-to-answer-about-education
Paul Thomas, AlterNet: Instead of focusing merely on "accountability," presidential candidates should be challenged first to confront and then address the tremendous social and educational inequities that plague our public schools.
Environmental Racism Persists, and the EPA Is One Reason Why
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/32474-environmental-racism-persists-and-the-epa-is-one-reason-why
Kristen Lombardi, Talia Buford and Ronnie Greene, The Center for Public Integrity: In its 22-year history of processing environmental discrimination complaints, the Environmental Protection Agency's Office of Civil Rights has reviewed nearly 300 complaints filed by communities of color. It has never once made a formal finding of a civil rights violation.
Recent Waves of Killings in Amazon Part of Larger Trend of Violence in Brazil
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/32476-recent-waves-of-killings-in-amazon-part-of-larger-trend-of-violence-in-brazil
Sofia Rada, Council on Hemispheric Affairs: Public discussion regarding police brutality in Brazil has intensified following two waves of homicides in the Amazon city of Manaus. However, Manaus is no anomaly; homicide rates across the entire country are at peak levels and are increasingly tied to the police.
"Don't Owe. Won't Pay." Everything You've Been Told About Debt Is Wrong
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/32473-don-t-owe-won-t-pay-everything-you-ve-been-told-about-debt-is-wrong
Charles Eisenstein, YES! Magazine: As the concept of illegitimate debts spreads, the moral compulsion to repay them will wane, and new forms of debt resistance will emerge. If one debt can be nullified, maybe all of them can - not only for nations, but for municipalities, school districts, hospitals and people, too.
Puerto Rico Will Find Many Friends if It Breaks With Colonial Condition
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/32475-puerto-rico-will-find-many-friends-if-it-breaks-with-colonial-condition
Vanesa Baerga, teleSUR English: Argentine sociologist Atilio Boron discusses Puerto Rico as a colony of the United States, its independence movement and the campaign to release Puerto Rican political prisoner Oscar Lopez Rivera.
This week in Speakout: Mel Gurtov highlights how US leaders finally categorized climate change as a global threat; Arturo Hernandez Garcia offers what he learned from nine months in sanctuary; Marah Elwadia explains why one year later, she's still haunted by Israel's 2014 war on Gaza; Dr. James J. Zogby urges Secretary of State John Kerry and Attorney General Loretta Lynch to not remain complicit in Israel's discrimination of Arab Americans; Ramzy Baroud reflects on the moral bankruptcy of Italy and NATO amid a North African migrant crisis; and more.
