NBSV 073: GiGi Carter and Alissa Nash on the increasing number of Black vegans, and whether veganism should include human rights

One of the fastest-growing vegan demographics is Black Americans. Alissa Nash and GiGi Carter discuss increasing the number of Black vegans, including quality of life benefits and cultural barriers. We also discuss the scope of expression of veganism's compassion (whether - and how - it should extend to human rights), and contributions ethnic cuisines have made to veganism. We acknowledge systemic and economic barriers faced by many, and focus on issues that are controlled on an individual level.
