hello everyone so i'm on this website
called veganamericanproject.com
and i am
going to be talking today about
intersectional
so intersectionality is a term first
coined by
critical race theorist kimberly
crenshaw to describe linkage linkages
between race class and gender when
applied to the bodies of women of color
so basically
when we as vegan advocates and vegans
embrace intersectionality
we are actually including
in our context of veganism other social
justice movements
such as ones regarding with race
color gender sexual orientations
uh female rights human rights all that
kind of stuff
and so i just want to

and so if you want to or need some

topic here
it's very simple and we really need to
understand this whole idea
because i think a lot of vegans and
organizations and grassroots groups
have trouble understanding what really
what we're here to do
as vegans and vegan advocates so
we understand that veganism is the idea
to
reject any form of violence onto
a non-human animal really basically to
be not
to be compassionate loving and caring
and kind towards all beings but
specifically towards
non-human animals and again specifically
towards farmed animals
and so we need to keep that in mind when
we're advocating for veganism
to include other social justice
movements
as we mentioned before women's rights
rights of people of different colors
and rights of sexual orientation and
gender and
all sorts of different different classes
and different
movements and so we need to integrate
that into
veganism but at the same time
focusing almost entirely on
veganism pertaining to farmed animals
because veganism connects basically or
as a solution to
basically all of the world's problems
that we're facing
and animal agriculture is really the
opposite it's really the
it's really the cause of the majority of
our problems
and so if we really want to address
the rights of women and the rights of
people of different colors
and the rights of gender and sexual
orientation
and etc etc we need to acknowledge
the rights of non-human animals because
that's where stem
all these problems stem down from is
the idea that other beings
matter less than us matter less than
human beings
and in this respect of their rights the
right to live their free lives
without human interference and human
domination
and so as vegans again we need to
realize that we're advocating for
veganism and veganism
includes all of these already
automatically includes all of these
other social justice movements because
it's all linked and it's also the
veganism is the solution
and so we have to we have to
link when talking to about animal
agriculture we have to link
different social justice movements and
the different
problems that we're facing and how it
relates
okay directly relates and is the
basically animal how animal agriculture
relates to them but
is the actual foundation of why they
exist
okay why these problems exist
it's because of animal agriculture most
of these problems
that exist and so we need to
get people to understand that and
to address these issues when talking to
people so if you want to comment
down please do so and all the links
everything will be in the description
