http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/34529-abortion-is-as-old-as-pregnancy-4-=
000-years-of-reproductive-rights-history

Aisha Maniar, Truthout: At least 3,855 civilians were killed and a further =

In Praise of Discomfort: Learning From Dr. King and Confronting Pinkwashing
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/34517-in-praise-of-discomfort-learnin=
g-from-dr-king-and-confronting-pinkwashing-by-israel
Stefanie Fox, Truthout: Activists calling for the cancellation of pro-Israe=
l and ICE events at a national LGBTQ conference are following Dr. Martin Lu=
ther King Jr.'s example by using tension to achieve justice. The backlash t=
o the anti-pinkwashing activism shows how change often comes when the comfo=
rtable are made uncomfortable.

Humanity Has Entered a New and Scary Geological Era

scary-geological-era
The Daily Take Team, The Thom Hartmann Program: According to scientists, 20=
15 was the warmest year ever, dating back to 1880. 2014 had set the previou=
s record, and 2015 beat it by a long shot. The scary part, though, is there=
's good evidence that this is nothing compared to what's to come.
Report Underlines Recent Worker Hazards at Old Weapons Plants
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/34520-report-underlines-recent-worker-ha=
zards-at-old-weapons-plants
Jim Morris and Jamie Smith Hopkins, The Center for Public Integrity: Hazard=
ous conditions in former uranium enrichment plants moved Congress in 2000 t=
o create a compensation program for former workers who were exposed. The pr=
ogram assumes that conditions improved at the sites after 1995. A new repor=
t by federal health investigators, however, casts doubt on that assumption.

Shaun Richman, In These Times: A wave of disastrous strikes in the Reagan e=
ra has left the surviving labor movement skittish about the prospect of ful=
