Coming up on today’s show, we have Amanda Marcotte back on the show to discuss rape culture, the Steubenville trial and how the story of an abused cat shows us how we should deal with instances of abused women.

We also have independent journalist Rania Khalek back on the show to discuss the lack of NYPD accountability when it comes to policies like stop and frisk as well as shootings, including the killing of 16 year old Kimani Gray.

We’ll also discuss how the State Department hid the fact that it’s environmental assessment report on the Keystone XL Pipeline was done by former TransCanada contractors, as well as a new scientific study that claims New York State could switch to 100% renewable energy by 2030 if it chose to.
