Episode 75 - Animal Liberation Now with Philosopher Peter Singer

Episode sponsored by Learn VeganicGrow your garden the vegan way!Free guide: https://learnveganic.com/materials/  Today, I am joined by the one and only, Philosopher Peter Singer. Recently retired from his role as Ira W. DeCamp Professor of Bioethics in the University Center for Human Values at Princeton University, (though when this episode was recorded he was teaching his final semester) Peter is often referred to as the “Father of the modern animal rights movement.” Journalists tagged him as the “world’s most influential living philosopher.” Peter believes this is attributed to the work within ethical treatment of animals and of the influence that his writing has had on development of effective altruism. When I mentioned to a friend that I would interviewing Peter, they said to me “that guy is pretty controversial” (would he be a philosopher if he wasn’t?) Peter attributes statements like this to his controversial critique of the sanctity of life ethics in bioethics. He is the author of Animal Liberation and the updated Animal Liberation Now and several other books on rights, Effective Altruism, and more.  To connect with Peter: Visit his website: www.petersinger.info Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/peter__singer Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PeterSingerOfficialPage Twitter: https://twitter.com/PeterSinger Mentioned in this episode: Richard Keshen Jeremy Bentham Animal Machines - Ruth Harrison The Vegan Society Animals, Men, & Morals - Stanley Godlovitch Effective Altruism To connect with me:Follow me on Facebook and Instagram @didyoubringthehummus Contact me here Join my mailing list and get 3 free recipes just for signing up! https://www.didyoubringthehummus.com/3recipepdf Join my Podcast Fan Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/didyoubringthehummus/ Book a free 30 minute call with me: https://www.didyoubringthehummus.com/book-online To be a guest on the podcast: https://www.didyoubringthehummus.com/beaguest ©2024 Kimberly Winters - Did You Bring the Hummus LLC Theme Song ©2020 JP Winters ⁠@musicbyjpw⁠
