Why Is My Kindergartner Being Groomed for the Military at School?
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/34693-why-is-my-kindergartner-being-groo=
med-for-the-military-at-school
Sarah Grey, Truthout: After the US military draft ended in the 1970s, the a=
rmed forces stepped up recruitment efforts on multiple fronts, including in=
 schools. Today, young children are primed for military recruitment before =
they're old enough to ask questions. How can parents, educators and veteran=
s push back?

Israel-Backed Group Sues Food Co-op for Boycotting Israeli Products
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/34692-israel-backed-group-sues-food-co-o=
p-for-boycotting-israeli-products
Dahr Jamail, Truthout: An organization backed by pro-Israel lobby groups an=
d the Israeli government itself has again sued a grocery co-op in Olympia, =
Washington, for boycotting the sale of Israeli goods. In 2012 and 2014, cou=
rts ruled that the anti-boycott litigants pay damages to the co-op's board =
members.

Surely Hillary Clinton Knows Why Wall Street Pays Her
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/34700-hillary-clinton-s-deliberate-de=
ceit
Carmen Yarrusso, Truthout: Hillary Clinton is surely aware that Wall Street=
 and the health-care industry won't give politicians millions without expec=
ting something big in return. So after accepting millions in corporate cash=
, how can she expect Americans to believe she won't be swayed by corporate =
interests?

The 13th Amendment Created Legal Slavery Through Incarceration
http://www.truth-out.org/progressivepicks/item/34695-the-thirteenth-amendme=
nt-created-legal-slavery-through-incarceration
Dennis Childs, University of Minnesota Press: The very amendment to the US =
Constitution that was to have performed the miraculous conversion of "chatt=
el into man" actually facilitated Black people being turned into chattel ag=
ain through imprisonment. The grandest emancipatory gesture in US history c=
ontained a rhetorical trapdoor, a loophole of state repression.

Beyond Reform: Abolishing Prisons
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/34703-beyond-reform-abolishing-prisons
Maya Schenwar, TEDxBaltimore: The United States has the highest imprisonmen=
t rate in the world. But is the problem simply that too many people are inc=
arcerated - or is incarceration a problem, in and of itself? The US prison =
system is inherently destructive and must be abolished.

Naomi Klein: Climate Change "Not Just About Things Getting Hotter"
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/34697-naomi-klein-climate-change-not-jus=
t-about-things-getting-hotter-it-s-about-things-getting-meaner
Michael Winship, Moyers & Company: In a wide-ranging conversation, the jour=
nalist and climate activist speaks a great deal about the recent climate ag=
reement in Paris, and more widely about her life and work, politics, the co=
ntinuing right-wing denial of global warming and the climate justice moveme=
nt.

Signing of TPP Marks Only Beginning of the Fight
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/34705-lori-wallach-signing-of-tpp-marks-=
only-beginning-of-the-fight
Amy Goodman and Nermeen Shaikh, Democracy Now!: The Trans-Pacific Partnersh=
ip has been signed by 12 member nations in New Zealand and will now undergo=
 a two-year ratification period in which at least six countries must approv=
e the final text for the deal to be implemented. However, activists pledgin=
g resistance say the fight has only begun.

All the News That's Fit to Print: How the Media Hide Undocumented Workers
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/34698-all-the-news-that-s-fit-to-print-h=
ow-the-media-hide-undocumented-workers
Aviva Chomsky, TomDispatch: Both the newspaper delivery and food distributi=
on systems connect some of the most intimate aspects of our daily lives wit=
h workers whose very existence is then erased or demonized in the public sp=
here. And all of this happens because these workers are regularly rendered =
silent and invisible.

The Science Behind the Flint Water Crisis: Corrosion of Pipes, Erosion of T=
rust
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/34704-the-science-behind-the-flint-water=
-crisis-corrosion-of-pipes-erosion-of-trust
Terese Olson, The Conversation: Given the complexities in producing potable=
 water, a non-negotiable respect for the necessary planning and testing ste=
ps of any new system is paramount to prevent such incidents as we've seen i=
n Flint, Michigan. A lack of due diligence in planning will always cost mor=
e in the end.

Black Lives Matter Interrupts Business as Usual
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/34701-black-lives-matter-interrupts-b=
usiness-as-usual
Marina Sitrin, teleSUR: Interruptions of business as usual are a fairly com=
mon form of protest, particularly when the movement is speaking to society =
as a whole. The "target" of the =E2=80=8BBlack Lives Matter=E2=80=8B moveme=
nt is not one or two officials. The issue is much deeper and broader.

Pandora's Box: How GM Mosquitos Could Have Caused Brazil's Microcephaly Dis=
aster
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/34699-pandora-s-box-how-gm-mosquitos-cou=
ld-have-caused-brazil-s-microcephaly-disaster
Oliver Tickell, The Ecologist: In Brazil's microcephaly epidemic, one vital=
 question remains unanswered: How did the Zika virus suddenly learn how to =
disrupt the development of human embryos? The answer may lie in a sequence =
of "jumping DNA" used to engineer the virus's mosquito vector.

Who's Missing From Syria's Peace Talks?
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/34696-who-s-missing-from-syria-s-peac=
e-talks
Lisa Davis, openDemocracy: No one said that Staffan de Mistura's job is eas=
y. As UN special envoy, de Mistura has been tasked with seeking a peaceful =
resolution to the war in Syria. But all of his hard work to restart the neg=
otiations will be for nothing if he doesn't include women.
