nd-the-deep-state-an-interview-with-mike-lofgren=20
Leslie Thatcher, Truthout: Former congressional staffer Mike Lofgren, autho=

http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/34913-with-hillary-clinton-corporate-=
america-defines-the-limits-of-acceptable-opinion=20

te power attempting to define the range of acceptable opinion in the United=
States in a way that assures that even the perceived "liberal" end of the =
spectrum embraces the notion of corporatism.
Could You Be Arrested Over Your Student Loan Debt?
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/34916-could-you-be-arrested-over-your-st=
udent-loan-debt=20
Julie M. Rodriguez, Care2: A man in Houston, Texas, made headlines with his=

arshals Service's explanation raises just as many questions as it answers.

Rights Activism
http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/34915-the-radical-work-of-healing-fania-=
and-angela-davis-on-a-new-kind-of-civil-rights-activism=20

http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/34909-from-farm-to-table=20
Kari Birdseye, Earthjustice: Agricultural workers report up to 20,000 pesti=
cide poisonings every year. It is uncommon, however, for an underage farmwo=

http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/34917-military-exploits-school-testing-o=
pt-out-campaign=20
Pat Elder, War Is A Crime: Thousands of New Jersey high school seniors may =

on-on-missing-and-murdered-women=20
Sarah Scott, Freedom Socialist Party: For years, activists have called upon=

ights.

singer-weren-t-even-half-of-it=20
Medea Benjamin, Foreign Policy in Focus: Now that many Americans, particula=
rly young ones, are hearing the name of Henry Kissinger, they should learn =
some other reasons why Kissinger wouldn't make a good mentor. The former se=
cretary of state isn't just a poor choice of foreign policy adviser; he's a=
bona fide war criminal.

<p style="margin: 0;padding: 0;font-size: 100%;color: #444 !important;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;line-height: 1.1"><strong>Sarah Scott, Freedom Socialist Party:</strong> For years, activists have called upon the Canadian government to address violence against Indigenous women, but seldom are these demands taken seriously. The historic disregard for Native lives spans a wide range of political issues, and violence against women must be addressed within the context of the larger movement for aboriginal rights.</p>

<p style="margin: 0;padding: 0;font-size: 100%;color: #444 !important;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;line-height: 1.1"><strong>Medea Benjamin, Foreign Policy in Focus:</strong> Now that many Americans, particularly young ones, are hearing the name of Henry Kissinger, they should learn some other reasons why Kissinger wouldn't make a good mentor. The former secretary of state isn't just a poor choice of foreign policy adviser; he's a bona fide war criminal.</p>
