A TALE OF TWO RALLIES FOR REPRODUCTIVE JUSTICE

By Jess McAllen
The Baffler

Sometimes you feel comforted in a sea of thousands, deferring to
people—or vehicles—in positions of power, and sometimes you feel
like standing with just a few hundred others, in colder temperatures
and without a sound system, willing to loudly yell the word
“abortion” without apology.

AIPAC GROVELS TO TRUMP

The American Prospect

Turbo Israel hawk Lynn Cheney is on AIPAC’s shit list. The powerful
lobby, erected in the name of defending Jews, has split from the
“respectable” right, and is now part of MAGA—the most
anti-Semitic government faction since before WW2.

STRIPPERS ORGANIZE

How many assaults, rapes, and shootings will it take for these
performers to be afforded even the basic protections a union could
provide?

MICHIGAN COPS ARE KILL CRAZY

Michigan leaders in recent years have proposed police reform with the
hope of reducing police killings, but it doesn’t seem to
working. At the current rate, Michigan will record 30 police killings
of citizens this year.

A BAPTIST VIEW: FIGHT FOR PUBLIC EDUCATION

By Mark Wingfield

It is disgusting, dismaying and disheartening to see the continued
attack on public education from conservative evangelical Christians
and people who pretend to be evangelical Christians but couldn’t
find John 3:16 in the Bible if you asked them. It is time to stop
being shocked at this behavior and stand up against it.

PICKING A CLIMATE CANDIDATE

By Raina Lipsitz
The New Republic

Support for new candidates is partly driven by frustration with the
fossil fuel industry’s grip on many incumbents. Activists’
emphasis on fossil fuel donations represents a shift from other
metrics environmental groups have used to evaluate candidates.

ROE REVERSAL AND LGBTQ RIGHTS

The opinion could change over the next two months before it is
officially released, but LGBTQ people and advocates fear the
consequences it could have. Advocates say that LGBTQ people are
already disproportionately affected by restrictions on abortion due to
higher rates of medical discrimination and poverty. 

THE BATTLE FOR DIVERSITY IN AN OHIO SCHOOL BOARD

Racial Diversity Awareness Day at Turpin HS traditionally includes a
series of activities, discussions, video clips and breakout sessions
focused on history, the criminal justice system and empathy. This
year it was cancelled. The event was scheduled to included guest
speakers from the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center and
Back2Back Ministries Cincinnati.

SF ELITE GUNNING FOR CHESA BOUDIN

Wealthy San Francisco residents are pouring money into the recall
campaign against progressive district attorney Chesa Boudin, who’s
being blamed for out-of-control crime. There’s just one problem: the
city’s supposed crime wave is a paranoid fantasy.

STARBUCKS SCUMBAGS

By Kate Rogers
CNBC

The NLRB accuses Starbucks of interfering with, restraining and
coercing employees seeking to unionize in various ways. The Buffalo
office said the coffee giant threatened and intimidated workers by
closing down stores, reduced workers’ compensation, enforced
policies against union supporters, engaged in surveillance and fired
workers, among other alleged violations.
