Gary Francione means business.

Humane treatment is a fantasy, it’s on an epistemological par with Santa Claus, bunny rabbits, Easter rabbits and things of that nature—silly. Humane treatment is impossible.

Philosophy Bites is a podcast series of short discussions of philosophical topics…

I love Gary Francione.

#Abolition

#Gary L. Francione

Being vegan is easy. Are there social pressures that encourage you to continue to eat, wear, and use animal products? Of course there are. But in a patriarchal, racist, homophobic, and ableist society, there are social pressures to participate and engage in sexism, racism, homophobia, and ableism. At some point, you have to decide who you are and what matters morally to you. And once you decide that you regard victimizing vulnerable nonhumans is not morally acceptable, it is easy to go and stay vegan.

EP13: Erin Red Welcomes Special Guest Gary L. Francione!

Hello all you Protein Powerhouses!

Episode Thirteen is out and I have to put my ego away for a few minutes (don’t worry, it’s never too far) and simply say this:  Writing, recording and producing this episode was one of the most humbling and gratifying experiences of my life.  Gary L. Francione is without a doubt a vegan superhero, and the whole time we were recording I was in shock that I had the privilege to be able to work with him on my very own show.  I hope you guys are as inspired and enlightened by his words as I continue to be.  Enjoy!

In Episode Thirteen, Erin Red is thrilled to welcome very special guest Gary L. Francione in a captivating and comprehensive discussion about everyone’s new favorite controversial topic:  Veganism and Animal Companionship.  Taking cues from Red Radio Episode 12, Gary tackles the subject with his usual cunning and enthusiasm while inspiring us to pursue real change.  Find out more about Gary on his website http://www.abolitionistapproach.com/ and follow him on Twitter at @garylfrancione.
