Flint and Haiti: A Tale of Two Rivers, a Tale of Two Crimes
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/34896-flint-and-haiti-a-tale-of-two-rivers-a-tale-of-two-crimes
Victoria Koski-Karell, Truthout: Though distinct, the water crises in Flint, Michigan, and near Haiti's Artibonite River region share key similarities that can be traced to systemic injustices and the denial of basic human rights. Efforts to eliminate cholera from Haiti or remedy lead exposure in Flint must be rooted in health equity.
Monsanto's Pesticide Is Top Suspect Behind Mysterious Kidney Disease
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/34899-monsanto-s-pesticide-is-top-suspect-behind-mysterious-kidney-disease
Armin Rosencranz, Ashrutha Rai and Gaurav Bhawnani, Truthout: For several years, a mysterious kidney disease, possibly caused by heat stress and chemical exposure, has been killing agricultural workers in poor regions of Central America and South Asia. The pesticide glyphosate, sold by Monsanto as Roundup, is likely to be an aggravating factor.
Scandal Erupts at University of Chicago Fraternity, Where Cultural of Racism Has Been Long Ignored
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/34856-pro-israel-fraternity-scandal-erupts-at-u-of-chicago-where-authorities-have-long-ignored-its-culture-of-racism
Sarah Lazare, AlterNet: The University of Chicago was thrust into the media spotlight this month when leaked internal emails between members of its Alpha Epsilon Pi fraternity revealed a series of lurid messages denigrating Muslim, Palestinian, Arab and Black people as well as women.
The Economy We Want Starts With a Constitutional Amendment
http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/34860-the-economy-we-want-starts-with-a-constitutional-amendment
Keith Harrington, YES! Magazine: A free and fair elections amendment is an essential step to enabling a broader process of change to unfold. The elimination of corruption from the campaign finance system opens the door to a much more democratic Congress, which could pass sweeping legislative reforms without fear of reprisals from wealthy campaign donors.
Protecting War Tax Resistance Strengthens Antiwar Movement
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/34866-protecting-war-tax-resistance-strengthens-antiwar-movement
David Gross, Waging Nonviolence: The thing about the 1% is that we outnumber them. But what they lack in numbers they make up for in craftiness. They don't have to go after all of us: If they target a few, the rest lose courage and fall back in line.
Georgia Bill Plans to Bring Prayer Back Into Public Schools
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/34874-georgia-bill-plans-to-bring-prayer-back-into-public-schools
Judy Molland, Care2: Proponents of prayer in schools are battling it out in Georgia, where a proposed bill states that "students in local schools may pray or engage in religious activities or religious expression before, during and after the school day" despite a 1962 Supreme Court ruling.
The Palestinian Museum: Imperiled Objects and Unsafe Ideas
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/34870-the-palestinian-museum-imperilled-objects-and-unsafe-ideas
Zoe Holman, openDemocracy: Under its continued occupation of historical Palestine, the state of Israel has retained almost exclusive ownership of the land's cultural assets. Much of these now furnish wealthy Israeli residences or are displayed in the country's museums with little or no reference to their Arab histories.
Facing a Physician Shortage, Can We Leave Medical School Grads on the Sidelines?
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/34876-facing-a-physician-shortage-can-we-leave-medical-school-grads-on-the-sidelines
Richard Gunderman, The Conversation: Dr. Heidi Schmidt cannot practice medicine and she is not alone; many medical school graduates like her cannot obtain a license. Last year, 52,860 US and international medical graduates applied for residency positions in the US, but only 26,252 actually matched into a program despite the nation's physician shortage.

<p style="margin: 0;padding: 0;font-size: 100%;color: #444 !important;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;line-height: 1.1"><strong>Zoe Holman, openDemocracy:</strong> Under its continued occupation of historical Palestine, the state of Israel has retained almost exclusive ownership of the land's cultural assets.

<p style="margin: 0;padding: 0;font-size: 100%;color: #444 !important;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;line-height: 1.1"><strong>Richard Gunderman, The Conversation:</strong> Dr. Heidi Schmidt cannot practice medicine and she is not alone; many medical school graduates like her cannot obtain a license. Last year, 52,860 US and international medical graduates applied for residency positions in the US, but only 26,252 actually matched into a program despite the nation's physician shortage.</p>
