TEDxNYU Simulates Inequality at Hunger Banquet

Tiffanie Hwang, Staff Writer December 5, 2016
TEDxNYU is partnering with Oxfam, Amnesty International, Share Meals and Habitat for Humanity on Monday to host and allow NYU students to participate in the Oxfam America Hunger Banquet. This will not be the typical student organization banquet where students will enjoy a hearty meal together; instead, students will experience the meal as members of different social classes.
