Vagina Dispatches: what you didn't learn in sex ed ► http://bit.ly/VagDis4
It’s not just about sex. Sex education should be giving us the information we need to feel in control of our bodies and make informed decisions about them – but it’s failing. In episode four of Vagina Dispatches, we (Mae and Mona) speak to our moms, friends and sex educators to find out why. Then we give the basics on some topics that are missing from the curriculum, from discharge to menopause.

Margaret Hodge tells Owen Jones: 'The Tories may create tax haven conditions in the UK' ► http://bit.ly/HodgeJones
The former chair of the public accounts committee, Margaret Hodge, tells Owen Jones she fears the Conservative government may think the only way for the British economy to survive following the Brexit vote is to create tax haven-type conditions. She warns this would lead to a race to the bottom with ‘promiscuous capital’ arriving before deserting the country when a better rate comes along.

Gun Nation ► http://bit.ly/GunNation
A revealing and unsettling journey to the heart of America’s deadly love affair with the gun
In the 18 years since Zed Nelson’s seminal photography book Gun Nation was published, 500,000 Americans have been killed by firearms in the US. Half a million people dead and many more injured, Nelson returns to the people he met, re-photographs them, and asks why America is a nation still with an insatiable appetite for firearms.
Gun Nation explores the paradox of why America's most potent symbol of freedom is also one of its greatest killers.

Naomi Klein at the Great Barrier Reef: what have we left for our children? ► http://bit.ly/KleinReef
In Under the Surface, a special Guardian film, the award-winning writer and environmental campaigner Naomi Klein travels to the Great Barrier Reef with her son, Toma, to see the impact of coral bleaching caused by climate change. In a personal but also universal story, Klein tells how she wants him to bear witness. ‘Just in case, amid the coral that is still alive, he can find something beautiful to connect with, something he can carry with him as he navigates life on a warmer, harsher planet than the one I grew up on. Because climate change is already here – and kids are on the frontlines’.
