Hunger and homelessness aren't things we always want to talk about.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm not so sure that people consider homelessness to be as important as, say, the Vietnam War. One should never even try to equate them because, of course, they're tragedies on both sides of the coin.
Every day I've got to hear about unemployment and people starving.
We talk about, you know, diet and that we shouldn't give our kids big things and obesity and fast food. Well, you know there are people who don't have that problem because they're not getting any food! We have so many deep problems and issues facing humanity.
Being unwanted, unloved, uncared for, forgotten by everybody, I think that is a much greater hunger, a much greater poverty than the person who has nothing to eat.
Hunger is a deep concern of mine, and I feel that no one should go without food in this world as long as there are caring people to lend a hand. I've had to struggle in my past and I know what it's like to go without, so I try to do as much as I can to help bring awareness to an issue that hits very close to home for me.
The issue I have always felt most strongly about is hunger in America, in particular the children.
The public thinks that homelessness is about not having any accommodation to go to.
The world of the homeless is a tough and interesting world.
Homelessness is an issue close to my heart.
Hunger in America is an American problem. The hunger of one should be the concern of all. Especially the hunger of children - our children.
