A Conversation with Hunger

We often envision hunger as a problem that exists in far off countries and unknown lands, but the reality is that hunger is everywhere. A couple weeks back we highlighted a poetry contest around hunger as a part of #GLAG21.  Recently Roger Thurow authored a piece highlighting a poem by AaronR the Poet inspired by Hiram Larew's Poetry X Hunger. You are encouraged to read the linked post and watch the video included. Following we invite you to utilize the discussion points to guide your conversations with others around the globe.

Talking Back to Hunger

Discussion Points

  • What resonated with you from the blog entry or video and why?
  • What does hunger look like in your home area? What does it look like in other parts of the world? Compare and contrast the two visions you have.
  • "Having food to eat shouldn't be a privilege, but a basic life necessity." What does this line from the poem mean to you?
  • How can we combat hunger both locally and globally in a sustainable manner? Share your thoughts and reflect on others. 
We challenge you to take action!
