---The first photo is a steriotypical image of hunger, crowds and little amount of food. I liked the second because it is makes you think and is a very different look at hunger, it hits home and calls out our societies' glutony. The third is very good example of photo-shop beauty. It is a strange representation of hunger but is an image that sticks in your mind.

Hunger Strike - Temple of the Dog
Hunger – Crown of Thorns
RHCP - Millionaires Against Hunger
U2 - Zooropa
Uncle Sam – Atmosphere
Uncle Sam Goddamn - Brother Ali

---The first song on the list "Hunger Strike" is inspiring because of lines that point out our ignorence while our "cups of overfilled". The Millionaires Against Hunger song calls out the rich who are not giving back or doing anything to combat poverty and hunger. "Zooropa" means different things to different people and should be watched and analised on a personal basis. The last two songs are on the playlist to remind me that our own government is not doing all it can to help ease this problem.

“If you can't feed a hundred people, then just feed one.”
Mother Teresa

---This inspires that everyone can play a part, even you and me.

“More than 820 million people in the world suffer from hunger; and 790 million of them live in the Third World.”
Fidel Castro

---This shows that even less desirable leaders are concerned with this problem and it makes the conection between third world countries and thier poverty and hunger.

“It's really very simple, Governor. When people are hungry they die. So spare me your politics and tell me what you need and how you're going to get it to these people.”
Bob Geldof

---This presents a straight forward aprouch to solving the problem and inspires many ideas.
