Deconstructing Language and Animal Liberation
I try to actively be aware of how the language I use perpetuates various hierarchies. As someone committed to a feminist socialist anti-racist world, I have been fairly critical of how language perpetuates power relations from these perspectives. However, with my decision to go vegan, lately I’ve been noticing how my language reflects certain conceptions on how the relationships between...

My Aspiring Vegan Manifesto
So, I’ve obviously had to deal with a number of questions about choosing to go vegan recently. I decided the solution was this elaborate manifesto on FB. Copied below, partially for your amusement and partially if I have to remove it on FB I will have a copy.

My mom: What are you eating?
Me: Grapes & chips.
My mom: Haha, what a great combination...
Me: Yeah, it's perfect. The chips are jalapeno flavoured & spicy, so the sweetness of the grapes works brilliantly with it. :D
No wonder she worries about my diet.
