Author: Jean-Martin Bauer
Narrator: Jean-Martin Bauer
A humanitarian leader with more than two decades of experience working for the United Nations takes aim at the global food crisis-revealing how hunger anywhere affects lives everywhere and what steps we can take to change course. At the turn of the twenty-first century, more than 150 countries pledged to eradicate hunger by 2030. But with only a few years left, we’re far from reaching that goal. Instead, hunger is on the rise-America itself recently experienced levels of food insecurity not seen since the Great Depression. How could the richest nation in the world have so many people going hungry? In The New Breadline, aid worker and activist Jean-Martin Bauer unravels this paradox. Bauer’s family fled to America during the terrors of the Duvalier dictatorship in Haiti. Now on the brink of mass starvation, Haiti and its grim history inspired Bauer to make food justice his life’s work.
