Produktinformationen zu „America, We Need to Talk (ePub)“
The newest book by Joel Berg--an internationally recognized leader and media spokesman in the fields of hunger, poverty, food systems, and U.S. politics, and the director of Hunger Free America--America We Need to Talk: A Self-Help Book for the Nation is both a parody of relationship and self-help books and a serious analysis of the nation's political and economic dysfunction. Explaining that the most serious--and most broken--relationship is the one between us, as Americans, and our nation, the book explains how, no matter who becomes our next president, average Joes can channel their anger at our hobbled system into concrete actions that will fix our democracy, rebuild our middle class, and restore our stature in the world as a beacon of freedom and hope.
Starting with the belief that it's irresponsible for Americans to blame the nation's problems solely on "the politicians" or "the system," Joel makes a case for how it's the personal responsibility of every resident of this country to fix it. The American people are in a relationship with their government and their society, and, as in all relationships, it's the responsibility of both sides to recognize and repair their problems.

Autoren-Porträt von Joel Berg
JOEL BERG is the author of All You Can Eat: How Hungry Is America? (Seven Stories Press, 2008), the definitive book for decades on American hunger. An internationally recognized leader and media spokesman in the fields of hunger, poverty, food systems, and US politics, Joel currently leads Hunger Free America, formerly known as the New York City Coalition Against Hunger. Joining the organization in 2001, Joel has built the nonprofit into a respected national champion for Americans struggling to obtain nutritious food and escape poverty. Greg Kaufman wrote for the Nation that, under Joel's leadership, the organization has grown "into one of the leading direct service and advocacy organizations on hunger and poverty in the nation." Prior to his work Hunger Free America, Joel served for eight years in the Clinton administration in senior executive service positions at USDA. He is the past winner of the US Secretary of Agriculture's Honor Award for Superior Service (one of the department's highest honors) and the Congressional Hunger Center's Mickey Leland National Hunger Fighter Award. A native of Rockland County NY, and a graduate of Columbia University, Joel now resides in Brooklyn.
