A short documentary film about food and poverty -- "Chicken a la Carte"
A JC friend of mine shared the following video on her Facebook page and I thought it was necessary for me to share it with a larger audience.
In the end, as my Human Rights lecturer from two semesters ago would have pointed out: it's not an issue of there being not enough food, it's about there being an unequal distribution of food resources.

Your lecturer is correct. Developed countries are wasting millions of food (in physical count) on a daily basis. Also count in the food we threw away because we weren't able to finish them.
Now imagine how many people the food we waste can go to countries such as Africa, where people are practically starving to death?
