2014-11-26 12

The Real USA takes a look at the stories not making headlines in the US commercial press. Today's program looks at the daily anti-racist protests in Ferguson, Missouri, the deeper grievances of the African-American community, and how the events in that city have changed the discourse on race and police behavior in the US; school closings in New York City; attempts by conservatives to revise the American history curriculum in Denver, Colorado; fast food and obesity and diabetes rates; and Berkeley, California's pioneering tax on sugary soft drinks. teleSUR
