This Is What Hunger Feels Like

Description

In America, at least 47 million people are living with hunger. They may not know when their next meals will be, or they may be skipping breakfast and lunch to make sure their kids can eat dinner. In this Opinion Video, dozens of people from across the country describe their daily struggles to feed themselves. Hunger in America has been rising, but the Department of Agriculture has seemingly stopped tracking it.

And now it’ll be harder than ever to find the many people in America who need help the most.
