There's something powerful about understanding how a global trend impacts your local community. For example, it's one thing to hear about world hunger. It's another to hear about hunger in your state. But there's a different feeling when you realize that there's a hungry kid in your neighborhood. As Tip O'Neill said, "All politics is local."
