Appalachia is widely known for its charcoal production these days almost all mines are closed and it is said that the American dream was lost somewhere here.
The Appalachian region with a large white population. It is home to some of the poorest regions in the world in the summer at lunchtime, this food truck goes up and down in the areas of people who were deprived of roanoke luz and Stacy two.
Free baby food volunteers provide up to 200 meals a day and every time they arrive they are eagerly awaited on today's menu sandwich milk box and kiwi turkey looking for fried beef in this family both working parents earn 1200 euros social benefits per month but as a family of five.
I will eat one I will eat for example now we are at the end of the month I usually skip breakfast and lunch and uh or yeah breakfast to lunch and eat dinner so that's all. I need to know yes being poor until you are hungry see.
You tomorrow see your safety this fact is not new in the Appalachia region in his 1964 election campaign Lyndon b johnson visited Appalachia and was shocked by the poverty he saw after his re-election, introduced the main plan to end poverty.
Today here and now proclaims an unconditional war on poverty in America one of his ideas. was to make food stamp coupons free of charge for the poor to date the government is distributing these stamps to 40 million Americans.
People in this mobile park in the heart of Appalachia most families benefit from this food aid with the American flag hanging on the front steps this is the home of a 58-year-old Kyrenia seaside Collins who was a seashell.
The chronic illness he receives a pension of 700 euros and faces a daily struggle to succeed and her financial problems have been worse since she took her niece.
Jennifer is a single unemployed mother with three children who have to take care of Leah Lindsey and Jane, fortunately, Jennifer gets stamps.
Every month on the first day depending on how many children you have to your salary they put you know a lot there and I get every month on the first day I will get like 640 640 just to buy just-food.
Yes, 560 euros a month to feed five people a tight budget before going shopping these two women look for balance on their card.
Your snap balance is 62.38 Kyrenia and Jennifer can spend your food coupons at any supermarket such as this discount store.
Where they usually shop once they come out the food stamp card works just like any other credit card and at this store in Appalachia are available.
They are not the only ones using one how many people pay with food stamps here when about half the people come here
much.
Yes yes thank you Donald trump plans to reduce the number of recipients of food stamps, critics say the accidents make the community already at risk even worse.
But strangely here they voted 80 in favor of Trump and their continued support seems unlikely to get the extra money Kyrenia made.
Housework for his neighbors for a few dollars, he also shaves James working in the mine and he is a loyal Trump fan I am a fan of trump yeah I support trump for you because he did everything he says.
He knows that Trump is determined to help other countries but his country comes first what happened not long ago Donald Trump is a millionaire Donald trump keeps his family everywhere.
He goes his children his wife are everywhere with him, that tells you a lot about the man that consistent support can be hard to understand for outsiders because since trump daily life of the Appalachian people.
It has not yet developed Poverty is rampant here and leads to extraordinary acts in the middle of the night in this small town, dozens of cars enter.
The exhibition area is approaching if you are going to turn right here and sell well, I suggest you come back here at about three or four o'clock like a trip.
You go out because you think everyone is lined up like you're going to a concert and you just grit your teeth when you're done or you know what these people are collecting here I stopped.
Just see a doctor because of every year here on the weekend. All you can get in this line of medicine is a non-profit organization planning free consultation.
Oh, there is a great need if many of their families in this area are working families struggling to choose between paying for medicine.
That can save their lives or know a church grocer so it is a shame to do so but you must take care of your people. how we care for our people.
Although the health care system improved under former president Barack Obama, 28 million Americans are left uninsured inaccessible to most people so staying up all night seems to be the case.
A small amount of payment even if you struggle to get medical help yes it's not easy but you have to do it differently not a good thing.
So the family has to come the night before because here is the law first to arrive at six o'clock in the morning the doors open the organizers call our patients on their number 127. a person sleeping in a car 128 so next time we will call 20 groups ok.
If we are inside patients find themselves in pictures of a hospital full of territory reminiscent of human tragedy and yet this is modern-day America where people are being treated differently.
Many volunteer nurses are family physicians but also specialists who can treat very complex diseases.CONTINUE
