The United States and the world have made dramatic progress against poverty in recent decades, but the second Trump administration has thrown progress into reverse. David Beckmann calls us to push back against MAGA and restore progress against poverty.
David is an economist, pastor, and activist. He was awarded the World Food Prize for leadership that led to substantial reductions in hunger. Drawing on stories from his own life and the struggles of poor communities around the world, Beckmann distills five essential insights and ten strategies to get progress against poverty going again.
These include legislative advocacy, volunteering and financial contributions to election campaigns, action in defense of democracy, and needed reforms in American spirituality and religion. He invites people of faith, seekers, and skeptics alike to deepen their solidarity with those in need and with a threatened planet.
He highlights data that prove poverty is solvable, confronts the problems that our country and the world now face, and calls for a new poverty abolition movement-similar in scale and determination to the movement that ended slavery.
At the heart of this book is hope: hope grounded in evidence, history, and the countless efforts of communities and advocates who continue to push for justice. With a foreword by travel writer Rick Steves, Poverty Abolitionists offers both a practical roadmap and a stirring moral challenge. It is a clarion call to action for activists, policy makers, and ordinary citizens who care about the future of humanity and seek to build a fairer, freer, and more just world.©2026 David Beckmann (P)2026 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC
Reseñas de la crítica
We need this book now. (Rick Steves)
David Beckmann always connects facts to faith. He tracks the reduction of poverty in recent decades and directly relates it to the moving of a loving God in history. He documents how the US government is now making life harder and even deadly for poor and hungry people; and hears a call from God to push back. David Beckmann’s book will help people move from discouragement to becoming faithful poverty abolitionists. (Jim Wallis)
In Poverty Abolitionists, David Beckmann shares lessons from his leadership of Bread for the World over many years. He also discusses an inspiring array of other ways that people are helping to move us toward the abolition of hunger and poverty. (Eugene Cho)
Poverty Abolitionists explores a range of effective strategies to renew progress against hunger and poverty. Together, these efforts form a powerful and growing movement. (Eric Mitchell)
We need to act now to defend democracy and protect vulnerable people. We also need to raise up and make room for leadership from younger generations. Poverty Abolitionists will help us on both fronts. (Barbara Williams Skinner)
