Thought Crimes:
Thought Crimes is an interactive installation about the privacy concerns in this digital age.
Every time we go online we leave trails of information that are gathered up either by private companies, our
governments, or individuals. Often times this information is processed by large programs that build profiles
of us without our knowledge. Sometimes these profiles are harmless, deciding what ads to show us on a
website, and other times they’re more dangerous, giving us credit reports or red-flagging us for the CIA.

AlterNet: Blogs: PEEK: Department Of Defense Promotes Christian Right’s Revisionist History in Public Schools:

I was astounded ; a passage paraphrased from the writing of David Barton, the leading historical revisionist claiming that the United States was founded as a “Christian Nation”, has been embedded within a national educational curriculum produced by the Department of Defense and taught, across the nation, to American public high schools students enrolled in Junior ROTC.

this is the sort of fractious lying that causes revolutions… by the wrong people. we need to ensure that students know that the u.s. is and always has been a secular nation. some individual states have religious issues… but not all.
