Full Program

Part 1

Part 2

Then we discuss the U.S. Senate report out today following a two-year investigation into for-profit colleges that documents exorbitant tuition, deceptive marketing, and abysmal student outcomes which are the norm in an industry almost entirely subsidized by the taxpayer. Deanne Loonin the Director of the Student Loan Borrower Assistance Project at the National Consumer Law Center joins us to discuss a 32 billion dollars-a-year racket funded by taxpayers that uses the G.I. bill to rip off minority students and vets, leaving them with crippling debt and worthless diplomas.

Part 3

Then finally we investigate the riots in Anaheim, California, a majority Latino community that has no Latino representation on the City Council with Latinos making up less than a quarter of the police force, whose officers were involved in recent shootings of Latinos that sparked the on-going protests. Martin Lopez, a community and labor organizer and Eric Altman the Executive Director of the Orange County Community Organized For Responsible Development, joins us to discuss the lack of majority representation in this troubled community.
