This segment originally aired Oct. 21, 2016, on VICE News Tonight on HBO.
One third of all Oklahoma school districts are now operating on a four-day schedule.
Oklahoma has cut education funding per student more than any other state over the last 8 years. In the past, Oklahoma has compensated for funding cuts with oil revenue, but oil prices have declined in recent years.
“Teachers have been reluctant,” principal Nathan Gray told VICE News correspondent Roberto Ferdman. “You’re now forced to cover all the curriculum, all the testing that’s required by the state, in four days.”
In Oklahoma’s Noble school district, all schools are closed on Fridays to save money, one principal oversees two elementary schools to avoid hiring a second administrator, and the district superintendent also works bus duty.
Gray says a four-day school week isn’t what anyone wanted, but it was the only way to cope with the cuts. “This was our best way to survive.”

“May God curse Bashar al Assad,” said a patient at Al-Quds Hospital in East Aleppo, Syria. “The bastard has attacked us with cluster bombs.”
This is the last functioning hospital in eastern Aleppo, treating as many as 100 casualties each day.
“Supplies will run out if the situation remains as it is now, with 300,000 people under siege, under totally unhealthy circumstances,” Dr. Hamza al-Khatib, a surgeon at Al-Quds, told VICE News. He’s one of about 30 doctors left to care for a quarter of a million people in eastern Aleppo.
“Unfortunately,” he said, “there is no clear glimpse of hope.”

June 12, 2016, started like any other Saturday night at Pulse, the beating heart of Orlando’s LGBTQ community. It was Latin Night at the popular club. People were dancing, drinking, and having a good time. That was until about 2 a.m., when Omar Mateen stormed in and opened fire with an assault rifle, leaving 49 dead and another 53 injured. It was the deadliest mass shooting by a single gunman in U.S. history.
VICE News spoke with four survivors, who talked about what the past year has been like and how the tragedy has stayed with them: two DJs who were playing when the first shots rang out, a Latin nightclub promoter, and a clubgoer who lost his best friend in the attack. We met at the Oasis Community Outreach Center, an LGBTQ-affirming church catering to Orlando’s black and brown community that has provided a sanctuary and a source of emotional support for some of the survivors.

There’s a clause hidden in most of the long company contracts no one reads. And it’s tucked away for good reason: A lot of people would probably think twice about signing if they knew the clause existed.
It’s called an arbitration clause, and it protects companies from lawsuits. A group of Wells Fargo customers is learning that the hard way.
But in February, the Supreme Court will decide if companies should be allowed to include arbitration clauses in their employee contracts.
Anyone, employees and customers alike, who signs a contract with an arbitration clause has to settle any legal dispute they might have outside of court, in a private arbitration hearing, where companies are far more likely to win.
Arbitration agreements have become so popular, it’s almost impossible to open a bank account, get a credit card, rent a car, or use Netflix, Tinder, or Groupon without signing one. Most of the time, they don’t end up mattering. But when they’re used, it can be extremely hard for customers to hold a company accountable for serious wrongdoing.

"Somewhere in Japan, a Japanese person is always in an onsen," onsen owner Shunji Shibatani told VICE News correspondent Isobel Yeung, referring to the country's traditional hot spring spas. "Onsen is an inseparable part of Japanese culture."
Hot spring spas are cultural institutions that have been around for more than a thousand years. Today, there are more than 3,000 onsens across the country, which service 120 million people every year, or roughly the entire population of Japan. The owners are facing pressure to share the geothermal reserves that heat their spas to help power the country.
After the Fukushima meltdown, the Japanese government faced significant pressure to shut down all of the country's nuclear reactors. Without nuclear power, the country gets almost 87% of its energy needs from expensive and polluting fossil fuels.
"We have enough to power 20 big nuclear power plants," said professor Sachio Ehara, chairman of the Geothermal Information Institute. "Japan is a land full of volcanoes."
With nearly 200 volcanoes, Japan has one of the largest geothermal reserves in the world. If this naturally occurring heat were to be harnessed and converted into power, it could generate 10% of Japan's energy needs right away.
"Geothermal energy and onsens will never co-exist because geothermals would take these resources, " said Masao Oyama, chairman of the Japan Spa Association, a powerful collective of spa owners who lobby for the $26 billion industry. "This energy source will be gone in 30 or 50 years."

This segment originally aired Oct. 25, 2016, on VICE News Tonight on HBO.
Self-driving cars may be on their way, but a driverless truck has already arrived. Self-driving truck company Otto completed its first delivery in October, a 120-mile journey through Denver traffic with no one behind the wheel.
In August, Uber bought Otto for $680 million. Morgan Stanley estimates that self-driving trucks could save the trucking industry $168 billion a year, and about $70 billion of that would come from labor savings.
About 3.5 million Americans work in trucking, one of the last well-paying fields available to people without a college education. Self-driving technology could soon replace some of those workers.
Self-driving trucks are expected to take over highways sooner than self-driving cars because highway driving is an easier technological challenge to solve. “There’s hopefully no pedestrians, there’s no stop lights, it’s easier to automate or have a self-driving vehicle on the highway most of the day,” Otto co-founder Lior Ron told VICE News correspondent Ravi Somaiya in Denver.
Otto trucks use a variety of sensors to read the road to decide when to accelerate, steer, or hit the brakes. Otto claims its technology is likely much safer than a human driver.
Otto is still testing its trucks, but it expects to sell a kit for tens of thousands of dollars to make any truck drive itself.

There’s a popular new villain in regional pro wrestling, but he’s not an Iranian sheik, a creepy mortician, or a flamboyant millionaire. He’s known as the Progressive Liberal, and he loves clean energy and Hillary Clinton. Audiences in Coal Country love to hate him.
Daniel Harnsberger, the real estate agent who moonlights as “The Progressive Liberal Daniel Richards,” gave VICE News a lesson in politics and headlocks at the School of Morton wrestling academy in Chuckey, Tennessee.
“It’s the hypocrisy of the right that I can’t stand,” he said. “I think the people’s narrow-minded view gives me a platform to troll them.”
Richards’s mentor, Beau James, a kind of Yoda of pro wrestling, explained how wrestlers craft a narrative and then tell the story with their bodies. The next day the duo put it all together in a Friday night fight in Campton, Kentucky.

"As part of the Civil Defense team, whenever there is an airstrike on Aleppo city, we are the first people to arrive at the scene," Syrian Civil Defense's Ibrahim Abu Alaith told VICE News. "During the last three days, we have documented more than 1,000 attacks."
Death is everywhere in Aleppo, and it has created an urgent and gruesome task: identifying the civilians who have lost their lives, and extracting them from the city's rubble. Syria's Civil Defense volunteers, also known as the White Helmets, have made this job their duty.
"Since the start of the revolution in 2011, the total number of deaths in Syria is estimated to be more than 600,000," Alaith said. "In the last 10 days we documented 450 deaths, and more than 2,000 wounded."

Gloving is a rave-style hand dance that involves putting multi-colored LEDs in the fingertips of white gloves to create trippy light trails.
“What I normally explain it to people as is: a form of dance that’s more based around your hands, fingers and arms,” glover Jacob “Vex” Zakarian told VICE News correspondent Bijan Stephen in Huntington Beach, California. “Gloving now has moved towards a more dance-y aspect, but it really all came from being able to create trails with the lights by having concise movements that look like they didn’t stop.” He can make a few hundred dollars a month competing in gloving events, Zakarian said.
EmazingLights Founder Brian Lim established the International Gloving Championship in 2011 to bring legitimacy to gloving.
“When we showcase judges, sponsors, and you see the true passion behind it, you can really tell that it’s not just a few kids on drugs,” he said.

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick knelt again yesterday as the national anthem played before his team faced off against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, continuing his protest against injustices toward minorities and inspiring others to follow.
Miami Dolphins running back Arian Foster began kneeling during the pregame anthem on Sept. 11 and has been a vocal supporter of Kaepernick ever since. “I don’t even think the song should be our national anthem, because it’s a racist song, if you look at the other verses of it,” he told VICE News correspondent Jay Caspian Kang.
Even some high school football players have participated in the protest. “I think it’s a beautiful thing,” Foster said.
The movement shows no signs of slowing down, as similar protests have recently been made by cheerleaders, marching bands, and basketball teams. “What would have to happen for me to stand for the national anthem?” Foster asked himself. “Honestly, man, I’m not sure I will stand again.”

After every U.S. presidential election since the Civil War, the transition of power from one administration to the next has been peaceful. The losing candidate, while disappointed, exhausted, even embittered, has demonstrated dignity in defeat and conceded to the president-elect.
While there’s no legal requirement that the loser concede defeat, it’s tradition for the defeated candidate to unofficially legitimize the results through a concession speech.
The speech, a literary genre unto itself, serves three purposes: to give the defeated candidate one last chance to offer a vision for the country, to secure a place in history, and to begin the process of uniting an electorate divided by the electoral process.
VICE talked to speech writers tasked with writing concession speeches for previous elections.

Earlier this month, Nintendo released the NES Classic, a mini version of the Nintendo Entertainment System, and it sold out almost instantly. But the new model doesn't come with one of the most beloved features of the original: access to the Power Line players called when they got stuck in a game.
The NES Power Line was originally intended to help people with technical difficulties connecting their game systems and other customer support. When Power Line counselors started receiving calls asking for strategic help on how to successfully advance through games, they set up a new line to accommodate those calls.
"They started a brand new phone line," said David Young, one of Nintendo's original Power Line counselors. "It's really grown from there, from six people to start out with that were taking calls to close to 400 in the heyday."
People of all ages and backgrounds would call in for help, Young said.
"The demographic was huge," Young told VICE News correspondent Dexter Thomas. "You'd get some little kids and you'd try to give them directions by using left and right, and they maybe didn't know their left to their right, so you'd have to find a more creative way to give them directions, like go towards the tree or towards the rock."

British Prime Minister Theresa May plans to trigger Article 50 as soon as March, starting a two-year process of removing the U.K. from the European Union’s common market. That means the U.K. will have to negotiate trade deals on its own, even with countries within the EU.
Currently, 44 percent of the U.K.’s exports go to Europe, so leaving the common market will make life more difficult for exporters of British goods. But Will Butler-Adams, CEO of London-based Brompton Bicycle, maker of the iconic Brompton folding bike, tells VICE News his factory will be ready.
“Yes, I would prefer to have a nice, simple trading agreement, but am I going to give up the will to live and shrivel up and die if we end up having some import duties and tariffs? No,” he said. “It’s not going to kill us, but it would be a bit of a bore.”

This segment originally aired Oct. 18, 2016, on VICE News Tonight on HBO
After a failed coup attempt against his government, Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdogan initiated an unprecedented crackdown against his country’s universities. Many professors who escaped imprisonment left the country, creating an international diaspora of Turkish educators.
VICE News travels to Georgia to meet Maya Arakon, an associate professor who fled Turkey to the United States. Arakon says she feels like the coup changed her home country. “I felt like, oh my god, this is not Turkey,” she says.
In Turkey, Arakon had her own television program where she analyzed Turkish politics. She says her platform put her in a precarious position, and after two colleagues were arrested, she decided to leave Turkey. “I knew the purge would eventually touch me, too,” Arakon says.
Arakon worked for a university affiliated with the Gülen movement, a political group Erdogan holds responsible for the coup. Arakon says she has no connections to the group, but the nature of her work on Kurdish people and international terrorism organizations were “delicate questions” within Turkey. She took the job because, “nobody dared to hire me.”

“I, David Rector, want my voting rights restored immediately,” Rector told VICE News correspondent Caroline Modarressy-Tehrani with the help of a computer-assisted voice.
In 2009, Rector suffered a brain injury that left him unable to move or speak. After his fiancé Roz Alexander Kasparik asked to be appointed as Rector’s legal guardian, they learned that meant relinquishing Rector’s right to vote. “David screamed,” Kasparik said.
There are 7 states where requiring a legal guardian because you’re disabled means losing your right to vote, and most others do not explicitly safeguard the voting rights of disabled citizens. Rector and Kasparik immediately began working to restore his voting rights.
“I think putting the burden on somebody with a disability to prove that they can vote is not only cruel and illogical, but I believe that it violates the Americans with Disabilities Act,” disability rights attorney Thomas Coleman said. “If somebody can express a desire to vote, they have a right to vote.”
Rector delivered a letter stating he wanted his voting rights restored to the San Diego Superior Court in August. A week later, he got his right to vote back.

The co-working startup WeWork, known to millennials as the company providing rentable full-service offices with free-flowing snacks and beer, is now expanding to fully furnished apartments with the same communal feel, dubbed “WeLive.”
VICE News reporter Nellie Bowles spoke with Nicholas Lulli, 25, a vice president at a social networking startup, SumZero, based in New York City. Lulli works in a WeWork office and lives in a WeLive apartment.
“You have Sunday-night family dinner at WeLive followed by Monday-morning breakfast at WeWork,” said Lulli. “It never ends. The WeWork circle of life is what it becomes.”
There are now over 90 WeWork offices across the globe and two WeLive apartment buildings — one in Washington, D.C., and the other in New York. Part of the broader trend in fast-growing startups, WeWork is valued at $16 billion.

We report on a pro-Trump pastor’s efforts to hold a gang summit on Chicago violence. A former leader of the Conservative Vice Lords describes how gangs today look nothing like they used to.
Plus, a look at North Korea’s progress in developing a nuclear missile capable of reaching the U.S. mainland. We also examine the role the duplicating others’ products and procedures plays inside the tech world. It’s a mainstay of the industry and has shaped how things get done.
Finally, in another installment of This Week in New Music, Run the Jewels reviews Sheryl Crow, “Halfway There,” Joey Bada$$, “Victory,” Sam Hunt, “Body Like a Back Road,” Julia Michaels, “Issues.”

On a hot day in the middle of March, photojournalist Emily Kask, 23, found herself on a tiny metal crawfishing boat, deep in the swamps of southern Louisiana. The humid bayou was a long way from Standing Rock, North Dakota, where she had traveled just a few months earlier to cover the massive protests against the Dakota Access Pipeline, but her goal was the same. Kask had already spent weeks in Louisiana documenting the people and places caught up in another anti-pipeline fight. In this case, her work meant tagging along on a day’s worth of crawfishing.
VICE News went along for the ride.

Within the past year, the CEO of Trump Hotels, Eric Danziger, along with the president’s sons Don Jr. and Eric announced big plans for expansion: the creation of two new brands meant to grow the family’s portfolio in the U.S. One is the downmarket, subtly titled American Idea hotels; the other, a four-star line called Scion.
But after Scion deals fell through in major cities like Dallas and St. Louis, the Trumps found an unlikely partnership in tiny Cleveland, Mississippi. It’s here, in this 12,000-person town, that another family of hoteliers will try to bring the Trumps’ new vision to life.
