Coming up on today’s show, we have Joe Macare from TruthOut and the Occupied Chicago Tribune here to give us a run down on what happened this weekend in Chicago at the NATO protests.

We also have Greg Kaufmann from the Nation Magazine’s Week In Poverty blog to discuss the often ignored problem of poverty in America.

We’ll also discuss the police brutality at NATO this weekend and why those who attack the legitimacy of the Occupy movement for the actions of a few, aren’t asking the police to be non-violent.

Our writer/performer today is Tim Grimes.
