While it is true that we are facing a large number of homeless people across the globe, they do not seem to have a place to live in their small homes.  One recent study  led us to the conclusion that only 5.4% of homeless folks went to shelter; and 6.1% went to work.  The majority of these folks are working toward careers in science and technology, not just food.  One of the reasons many homeless are fleeing poverty is because of the economic crisis (especially in developing nations where many jobs and incomes are tied up).  The only way to stop poverty is to make every effort to ensure that every person is safe by living with and interacting with others.

This is why the Food Pantry Leadership Campaign began last year at Occupy Wall Street.  By sharing the story of an African American food worker, it helps to draw the attention of the Food Pantry Campaign, which will be working to reach out to African American labor leaders and provide support to those impacted by this tragedy.  We will begin this process as early as this month and continue until we are able to establish how to work together to provide financial and financial support for poor African American familing and for low-income black lives—a program we have helped to organize and make possible. By sharing this story of one black farmer with his children and her family, our campaign will highlight the power of grassroots leadership to support African American communities.
