Just a quick post to let you all know about two fascinating (and deeply troubling) stories that I came across this evening at Majikthise, an excellent liberal blog by Lindsay Beyerstein, a fellow Tufts alum:
First, the White House has suspended funding for an abstinence-education program that essentially diverted tax money to religious activities (the Post as the story here).
Second, a case brought against Tyson Foods charges that the company’s facility in Ashland, Alabama maintained segregated washrooms.
I’ve got the links and some additional commentary on the issues of abstinence and segregation over at The Reaction.
