	Food Not Bombs - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Food Not Bombs ideology claims that myriad corporate and government priorities are skewed to cause hunger amidst abundance.
		Food Not Bombs began in the early 1980s in Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA, a city adjacent to Boston, when a group of anti-nuclear activists, who were protesting the nearby Seabrook power plant, began spray-painting the slogan "Money for food, not for bombs" around the city.
		Chapters of Food Not Bombs were involved in the rise of the Anti-Globalisation Movement in the late 1990s, leading to the APEC resistance in Vancouver in 1997; the June 18, 1999 International Carnival Against Capitalism; and the "Battle in Seattle" later that year, which shut down the World Trade Organisation meetings.
