David Beckmann returns to Walk Talk Listen for a third conversation. An economist, Lutheran pastor, World Food Prize laureate, and former President of Bread for the World, David has spent decades working to end hunger and poverty through advocacy, faith, and civic engagement. This time, we discuss his new book, Poverty Abolitionists: Faith, Activism, and Hope for Difficult Times, which argues that poverty is not an inevitable feature of society but a solvable problem if people organize, advocate, vote, and work together for change. Our conversation explores the book's five key insights and ten strategies, including legislative advocacy, democracy, social justice movements, faith communities, and reaching across divides. We discuss whether policy advocacy is still as effective as it once was, the importance of local agency and community action, the role of spirituality and inner transformation, and why David remains hopeful despite what he sees as a significant setback in the fight against poverty. We also revisit a question from a previous Walk Talk Listen guest: What is the single most important thing civil society should focus on today?
