Film: "A Place at the Table" Fresno, 11/23 7pm

[annm4peace]

Try and attend the showing of this film on Saturday, November 23 at 7 p.m. at the UU Church, 2672 Alluvial Ave. Fresno


"A Place at the Table" is a powerful film dispels the myths about who's food insecure in our country. It also looks at the reasons that hunger exists in a land of such plenty, and the possible solutions to end it for good.
This film is especially timely, given that Fresno was recently ranked fifth in the nation for food insecurity. A post-film discussion will be led by Brandie Banks-Bey of the Central California Regional Obesity Prevention Project (CCROPP), Tom Matott of Fresno Metro Ministry, and Andy Sousa of the Community Food Bank.
We hope you will join us at this screening and forward this email to others who might be interested.

50 Million Americans—1 in 4 children—don’t know where their next meal is coming from. A Place at the Table tells the powerful stories of three such Americans, who maintain their dignity even as they struggle just to eat. In a riveting journey that will change forever how you think about the hungry, A Place at the Table shows how the issue could be solved forever, once the American public decides—as they have in the past—that ending hunger is in the best interests of us all.
