Black Lives Matter & Veganism: Dr. Milton Mills Connects the Dots!

from The Truth Files with Jane Velez-Mitchell · host Jane Velez-Mitchell

As we experience a national uprising in solidarity against racism, Dr Milton Mills helps us look at the issue from the angles of human health and environment. Environmental racism and dietary racism are terms unfamiliar to many. However, millions of African-American citizens are experiencing the ill-effects of both. Dr Mills has spoken truth to power at the USDA about its dietary guidelines pushing unhealthy dairy on minority school kids. Dr Mills also tells us about the ill-effects of factory farms on surrounding minority communities. Then, there's the exploitation of slaughterhouse workers, who are overwhelmingly people of color. His understanding of the history of food is fascinating. Dr Mills explains how minorities often underwrite exploitation by supporting companies that support oppression. The most powerful tool we have is our money. Making smart consumer choices can result in taking back the power. Dr Mills is featured on: What The Health & The Invisible Vegan.
