Last year Americans reached an all time high of poverty in 52 years according to the U.S. Census Bureau, with 46.2 million Americans living in a poverty conditions. That is why my little discovery through my phone's blog reader was so much more exciting.
On October 9 (yes, this Sunday!) Sesame Street is airing a primetime television special called "Growing Hope Against Hunger". The episode will introduce a new character, Lili, a 9 year old pink muppet who, along with Elmo, volunteers at a food drive, visits a community garden to obtain food, and discuss her family's hunger issues, among other things. Funded in part by Wallmart, it is the hope that this episode will begin to address issues about poverty and hunger in a way that a younger audience can begin to understand.
