Obesity
in America has reached a crisis point. Two out of every three Americans
are overweight, one out of every three is obese. One in three are
expected to have diabetes by 2050.
Minorities have been even
more profoundly affected. African-Americans have a 50 per cent higher
prevalence of obesity and Hispanics 25 per cent higher when compared
with whites.
How did the situation get so out of hand?
On this week's episode of Fault Lines, Josh Rushing explores the world of cheap food for Americans living at the margins.
What opportunities do people have to eat healthy? Who is responsible for food deserts and processed food in American schools?
Fault Lines finds food revolutions taking place and speaks with the people that are fighting back.
