""Did you live your life like you imagined?" I'm sure I've written about this song before but as I get ready to enjoy this Sunday in full—the morning has been internet and chores), the afternoon, after yoga will be books and sunshine and such—I feel inspired by this question." - Jason Toney

In one of the most dramatic examples I’ve seen of the true reach of hunger in the United States, a new report released this week by Washington University in St. Louis researchers found that 90 percent of black children will be clients of the national Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP/Food Stamps) at least once by the time they turn 20. Although the percentage is less for white children (the only other ethnic group studied), the startling statistic here is that, at some point before their 20th birthday, 50 percent of all children in the United States will have received SNAP benefits.

 also known as why my political leanings tend to care much more about how we work for the poor than the middle class. — misterjt
I work with the summer version of that program and this past summer, black children were not the highest percentage of kids using the program. (It was for kids whose families are on food stamps to be fed during the summer.) We had 35% black, 45% white, and 15% hispanic. - Trish R
Yeah, the rest of the article notes that it's 50% of all children will be on SNAP at some point. Hunger in America is a huge problem for all children, not only black children. But it is especially them. As in, 9 out of 10. - Jason Toney
Yeah, that's very sad. I was just noting our statistics because people seemed so surprised when they came out. I don't think a lot of people realize how big this problem is now. - Trish R

Pastor Joel Osteen is one of the most popular preachers in the country, and the author of several best-selling books that help people achieve “their best life now.” Gay Rights blogger Michael Jones writes that while Pastor Osteen has made a name for himself selling a friendlier version of religion, there’s still a sour dose of homophobia that lies at the core of his sugar-coated message. It reared its ugly head this week, when Pastor Osteen boldly claimed that “homosexuality is not God’s best.” On the contrary, we humbly suggest to Pastor Osteen that homophobic preachers are not likely to be a loving God’s best.
