We are going to start podcasting again as time permits.
In fact, we are going to be creating a new series as “Vegan.FM.”
For now, it’s still the Abolitionist Approach Commentary.
In this Commentary, Anna Charlton and I discuss educating yourself so that you can educate others, the importance of doing education/advocacy in your community, the idea that vegan advocacy represents an attempt to “force” people to go vegan, and that animal ethics is a matter of “choice” and not moral obligation.
It’s a short episode–about 15 minutes.
Join us:
*****
If you are not vegan, please go vegan. Veganism is about nonviolence. First and foremost, it’s about nonviolence to other sentient beings. But it’s also about nonviolence to the earth and nonviolence to yourself.
The World is Vegan! If you want it.
