lity
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/32629-revisiting-hurricane-katrina-ra=
cist-violence-and-the-politics-of-disposability
Henry A. Giroux, Truthout: In the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, we were l=
ed to believe that the tragedy was the result of a natural disaster and gov=
ernment incompetence. Ten years later, such an assessment seems shortsighte=
d. Katrina launched a new era, rooted in racism, of the politics of disposa=

The Revolution That Was Not Televised: Lessons From the Vietnam Antiwar Mov=
ement
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/32692-the-revolution-that-was-not-televi=
sed-lessons-from-the-vietnam-antiwar-movement
Kar=C3=ADn Aguilar-San Juan and Frank Joyce, Just World Books: The US war i=
n Vietnam was the first televised war, but television alone did not create =

ial justice activists, fomented and channeled opposition to the war, both f=
rom ordinary people and elites.

The Daunting Task of Decarceration
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/32683-the-daunting-task-of-decarcerat=
ion
Nancy A. Heitzeg, Critical Mass Progress: We face enormous challenges in di=
smantling the sprawling prison industrial complex. Beyond the difficulty of=
converting political rhetoric into any sort of legislative action, there a=
re the daunting realities of numbers, of focus and of profit. In confrontin=
g these problems, we must look beyond small reforms that reinforce the stat=
us quo.

http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/32682-how-the-billionaire-kingpins-of-sc=
hool-privatization-got-stopped-in-their-own-back-yard
Kali Holloway, AlterNet: Following the introduction of a bill which would h=
ave expanded the potential for privatization of Arkansas' public school dis=

How Neoconservatives Destabilized Europe
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/32687-how-neoconservatives-destabilized-=
europe
Robert Parry, Consortium News: The neoconservative prescription of endless =
"regime change" is spreading chaos across the Middle East and now into Euro=

Montana's Fossil-Fuel Resistance Centers on Stewardship of Land
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/32685-montana-s-fossil-fuel-resistanc=

Sarah van Gelder, YES! Magazine: Montana ranchers, grandmothers, professors=
and tribes are building ways of life that can sustain them, as well as the=
land, water and soil. Unlike the hit-and-run companies looking to exploit =
the land, these people are taking responsibility to protect what's sacred.

Day of the Disappeared: Mexico Remembers the 43 Abducted Students
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/32689-day-of-the-disappeared-mexico-r=
emembers-the-43-abducted-students
Cornelia Gr=C3=A4bner, The Conversation: Many states have renounced respons=
ibilities to their citizens to such an extent that they have created - or h=
ave failed to prevent - conditions that leave particular sectors of the pop=
ulation vulnerable to "enforced disappearance." The case of the 43 students=
abducted in Guerrero, Mexico, is a perfect example.

Sarah Tory, High Country News: Scientists are trying to understand what's r=
eleased from the nation's biggest energy-producing regions. By tracking "fu=
gitive emissions," such as methane, that leak into the atmosphere, research=
ers want to quantify those emissions and their effects on everything from t=

Mantra for 9/11: 14 Years Later, Improbable World

Tom Engelhardt, TomDispatch: Fourteen years later, isn't it possible to thi=

as we knew it have been shoveled? Of course, the changes that came, especia=
lly those reinforcing the most oppressive aspects of state power, didn't ar=
