Melanin Vegan
by Jeanna Gaines
Melanin Vegan is about improving your mindset based on food, culture, environment, your health, gender and animals. Veganism is a lifestyle not a diet. I am exposing the animal agriculture and the myths around veganism. Have you ever heard the phrase you are what you eat? I speak for the unspoken!!! Melanin and feminism play a role in this podcast as well; I am a young melanin woman. Do you know how much a gram of melanin is worth? I hope my listeners gain cognition from this podcast, because Melanin Vegan is beyond a category it's how we're going to evolve.
