  CODEPINK : HUNGER STRIKE HISTORY
Hunger strikes call attention to a grave issue, force change, and cause shame for wrongdoers and inspire others to take action.
As we embark on our own hunger strikes to end this illegal, unjust, deadly war, we must also honor those who have come before us: the past and present hunger strikers who have had the strength and will to sacrifice for peace and social justice.
Rolling hunger strikes like this one are useful because they call attention to an issue based on numbers of participants rather than length of a single person’s fast.

In the House, Republican newcomers hunger for the opportunity to change the establishment, while Democrats are hanging onto the status quo.
House Republicans, only seven votes short of a majority, figure now is the time to spark a 2002 revolution at the polls.
The House Republicans add to the unpredictable nature of legislative politics this year because the GOP by itself can pull a bill bottled up in committee and force a floor vote, thereby making the Democrats take a public stand on an issue they had hoped to duck, Fox explained.

1997's HUNGER was a slight bump in the road to her '90s comeback, but not a devastating one as some have seemed to say.
True, HUNGER may not be one of the best albums of her third time in the music business (the honesty of BREAKING SILENCE is almost irreplacable it seems), but Janis is one of those artists where even her least-inspired music is worth a listen.
Janis Ian's hunger is a stark, sparsely produced and stylish album with plenty of interesting melodic arrangements to satisfy fans and newcomers to her music alike.

 Books at Random House of Canada | Hunger's Brides by Paul W.Anderson
Spanning three centuries and two cultures, Hunger’s Brides brings to vivid life the greatest Spanish poet of her time, Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, and plumbs a mystery that has intrigued writers as diverse as Robert Graves, Diane Ackerman, Eduardo Galeano and Nobel laureate Octavio Paz.
In the dead of a Calgary winter night, a man escapes from an apartment in which a young woman lies bleeding — in his arms he clutches a box he has found on her table addressed to him.
Hunger’s Brides is a dramatic unveiling of three intimate journeys: a man’s forced march to self-knowledge, a great poet’s withdrawal from the world, and a profane mystic’s pilgrimage into modern Mexico, in which the bones of the past constantly poke through a present built on the ruins of the vanquished.

 National Hunger Awareness Day Forum - Remarks by Jim Weill
There is no way to end hunger in this country without an energetic private sector effort and a strong and comprehensive public effort, working in partnership.
It was the growth of food stamps – and WIC and other programs – that did so much to reduce hunger in America between the time of the White House Conference on Hunger in 1969 and the late 1970s, and did so even though the wages of millions of Americans fell in that time.
It was bipartisan leadership that helped stop the block granting of the food stamp program a few years ago, and that we need to stop the misconceived superwaiver/block grant proposals this year.
