In this episode, we will delve into the discord between human rights and animal rights. This friction has been featured in various spheres: academic studies, the media, food and culture literature, food security issues, and the law which is where we will focus on today.Maneesha Deckha is Professor and Lansdowne Chair in Law at the University of Victoria in British Columbia where she directs the Animals & Society Research Initiative. Her research expertise includes critical animal law, vegan ecofeminist theory, and postcolonial theory. She is the author of Animals as Legal Beings: Contesting Anthropocentric Legal Orders and has directed an open access documentary series designed for high school and undergraduate students called A Deeper Kindness: Youth Activism in Animal Law.Maneesha gives real world examples of legal cases to show that there are cultural, racial, and indigenous rights concerns for extending legal rights to nonhuman animals and how we can mitigate these tensions. One example is the case brought on behalf of Happy the Elephant at the Bronx Zoo by the Nonhuman Animal Rights Project. She unpacks some of the history of these apprehensions and offers a framework for solidarity to move us forward for everyone's benefit.

In this episode Claudia talks to Cory Lee Wrenn about two concepts that are central to her work in animal studies: social movement mobilization and feminism. They discuss veganism as a social movement as well as some of the ways in which feminism has been sidelined in animal rights' debates. Date Recorded: 13 October 2023. Cory Lee Wrenn is Lecturer of Sociology with the School of Social Policy, Sociology and Social Research (SSPSSR) and Co-Director of the Centre for the Study of Social and Political Movements at the University of Kent. In July 2013, she founded the Vegan Feminist Network, an academic-activist project engaging intersectional social justice praxis.

Transitioning from a standard American diet to a high-raw vegan lifestyle involves significant changes not just in eating habits, but also in one's identity, mindset, and overall approach to life.

Buon anno a tutte le persone che sono qui con noi dal giorno uno e a tutte quelle che sono arrivate oggi qui e continueranno ad arrivare nei prossimi mesi! Il libro di Gennaio è Afro-ismo: cultura pop, femminismo e veganismo nero, di Aph e Syl Ko, che ci ha incuriosite subito dal titolo e che abbiamo effettivamente apprezzato moltissimo perchè è uno di questi testi che scomoda e prova a decostruisce un certo modo di vedere e vivere il mondo. È costituito da un insieme di saggi brevi pubblicati originariamente su un blog, fra il 2015 e il 2016; in questo testo si trovano anche delle preziosissime riflessioni sull'attivismo, sui social media e sugli spazi di lotta che noi abbiamo amato per mettere in discussione prima di tutto il nostro modo di stare in questi spazi. Anche il veganismo stesso viene trattato da una prospettiva inedita per noi persone bianche, quella dell'animalità; questo libro infatti come dicevamo potrebbe causare sensazioni scomode in un pubblico bianco e in realtà è proprio per questo che ve lo consigliamo di cuore! Aggiungiamo un altro tassello alla nostra libreria femminista e cominciamo questo viaggio! Buon ascolto.
C'est parti pour la Saison 2 de Comme un poisson dans l'eau ! Je suis ravi d'ouvrir cette nouvelle saison avec un entretien en deux parties avec l'écrivaine et sociologue Kaoutar Harchi. Elle a récemment publié dans la revue Ballast un très bel article intitulé "Les animaux avec nous, nous avec les animaux" dans lequel elle propose une approche intersectionnelle de l'animalité qui appelle à voir que l'animalisation concerne non seulement les autres animaux mais aussi des populations humaines, et est notamment un des ressorts du processus de racialisation négative. Elle défend donc l'idée d'un élargissement de l'antispécisme à la prise en compte des liens de co-production du spécisme avec d'autres formes de domination, liens qui peuvent certainement être envisagées de façon féconde par la perspective intersectionnelle. J'espère que vous trouverez cet entretien passionnant, et que vous aurez autant de plaisir à l'écouter que j'en ai eu à l'enregistrer ! ________________________________ Références et sources citées dans l'entretien : - L'article "Les animaux avec nous, nous avec les animaux" de Kaoutar Harchi dans la revue Ballast : https://www.revue-ballast.fr/les-animaux-avec-nous-nous-avec-les-animaux/ - L'écrivain Joseph Andras qui a notamment écrit Ainsi nous leur faisons la guerre - Les penseur et penseuse socialistes Élisée Reclus et Louise Michel - Aphro-ism - Aph Ko et Syl Ko - Le loup et le musulman - Ghassan Hage - Les penseuses des articulations entre spécisme et d'autres oppressions Myriam Bahaffou et Dalila Awada - Les penseuses de l'intersectionnalité : Kimberlé Crenshaw, Patricia Hill Collins, Angela Davis - Episode "Intersectionnalité, j'écris ton nom" du podcast féministe et intersectionnel Quoi de Meuf : https://soundcloud.com/nouvelles-ecoutes/quoi-de-meuf-112-intersectionnalite-jecris-ton-nom - Une écologie décoloniale - Malcom Ferdinand Ressources sur l'islamophobie : - Épisode "L'islamophobie : racisme institutionnel et locomotive du néofascisme" du podcast Minuit dans le siècle sur la plateforme Spectre : https://spectremedia.org/minuit-dans-le-siecle/ - Épisode "Islamophobie : un mot, des maux" du podcast Kiffe ta race de Binge audio : https://www.binge.audio/podcast/kiffetarace/islamophobie-un-mot-des-maux - Épisode "Islamophobie : l'expérience des converti·es comme révélateur" du podcast Contresons sur la plateforme Spectre : https://spectremedia.org/contresons/ ________________________________ SOUTENIR : https://linktr.ee/poissonpodcast Comme un poisson dans l'eau est un podcast indépendant et sans publicité : votre soutien est indispensable pour qu'il puisse continuer à exister.

This episode we spoke with Christopher Carter about faith, black veganism, and soul food. Show Notes: Follow us on Twitter at @FoodThoughtPod, and you can drop us a line at ThoughtAboutFood on Gmail. Leave us a review! It helps people find the show. Christopher Carter is an Assistant Professor and Assistant Chair of the Theology and Religious Studies department at the University of San Diego and a Faith in Food Fellow at Farm Forward. Christopher's forthcoming book is The Spirit of Soul Food: Race, Faith, and Food Justice from the University of Illinois Press. Christopher mentions that his use of Black Veganism is directly inspired by Aph Ko and Syl Ko's book Aphro-ism: Essays on Pop Culture, Feminism, and Black Veganism from Two Sisters Christopher shared a recipe for red beans and rice, one of the first that he successfully "veganized." This also counts as a teaser for his book, since this recipe and others are included throughout the text (something I wish more academic books on food would do!): Red Beans & Rice For me, a Black man whose American ancestry begins in Mississippi and Louisiana, the foundational soul food dish will always be red beans and rice. This recipe was a staple in my childhood, something we could eat on special occasions and when our budget for food was slim. For me, red beans and rice feels like home. When the pervasive reality of racism knocks me offcenter, red beans and rice can be the ground from which I can regain my sense of self and remember myself as beloved by my community and beloved by the Ultimate source of compassion. Despite all the stress, micro, and macro aggressions I may face, sitting down at the dinner table and eating red beans gives me a little something to help me keep-on-keeping-on, as the elders would say. If we think about the history of Black foodways as a window into the racism that was and continues to be foundational to our domestic food system, we realize that Black foodways have a deeper meaning that can easily be overlooked. Knowing this history and finding ourselves within this story prompts theological reflection and response. Decolonial analysis seeks to unsettle the notion that theory and praxis are necessarily separate from each other—theory is thinking, and thinking is doing, and praxis necessarily requires thought-reflection on actions. Both my Christian faith and my identity as Black man influence the analysis, arguments, and constructive proposals that I put forth in this book. What some might see as a provocative suggestion, black veganism, is rooted in these two identities. However, what follows in this book is not a straightforward argument for veganism. My own path to veganism was not straightforward, it was a complicated and challenging transition and it would be foolish to expect otherwise from anyone else but especially Black people given the ways that our foodway is racialized. Black veganism is a process of being and becoming, knowing who we are and what tools we need to use so that Black foodways can be a source of abundant life for Black communities. When I became vegetarian and subsequently transitioned to veganism, I feared that my evolving diet compromised my ability to feel like I was a part of my community when we sat down for meals. Moreover, if I could not eat red beans and rice, I wondered, “what kind of Black person would I be,” could I still claim to be standing on the culinary shoulders of my ancestors? Finding a vegan version of this dietary staple opened my eyes to the creativity one can have cooking soul food. Preparing it and serving it to my family revealed that this delicious version conjures the same familial memories as its nonhuman animal meat-based alternative, and thus possesses the strength to become a foundational family dish too. Because of this, red beans and rice is the first dish we set out upon our vegan soul food table. Ingredients: Two 15oz. cans of Kidney beans, rinsed and drained 4 cups of broth made from Better than Bouillon Vegetable base 4 vegan sausages (I highly recommend Field Roast Apple Sage, Italian, or Mexican Chipotle) 1 tablespoon of grapeseed oil (or any high heat oil) 1 large white onion, diced medium 6 six-inch celery stalks, diced small 6 garlic cloves, minced 1 teaspoon chili powder 1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning 1 teaspoon dried thyme 1 red bell pepper, cored, seeded, and chopped ½ cup of green onions Directions Heat a 4-5 quart stew pot over high heat, add the oil and wait until it shimmers. Add the onion and celery and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon, until translucent, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic and cook about 2 minutes more. Add the sausage, chili powder, thyme, broth, beans, and bell pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10-15 minutes, stirring frequently. Season with salt, pepper, and your favorite hot sauce. Serve over a bed of rice, garnish with the green onions. The intro and outro music is "Whiskey Before Breakfast" which is both a great traditional song and an interesting interpretation of "praxis."

Author and activist Aph Ko explains her novel and insightful ideas on race and animality to foster multidimensional liberation for all human races and animal species, based on her book Racism as Zoological Witchcraft: A Guide to Getting Out (Lantern Press: 2019) (Jordan Peele's movie Get Out is an inspiration here). In this 26-minute "In Tune to Nature" Podcast, host Carrie Freeman asks Aph to explain concepts from the book, such as how racism is a form of "zoological witchcraft" where "white supremacy uses both minoritized bodies and animality to communicate and reinscribe a mythical fantasy of racial superiority" (p. 99). She also explains the value of concurrently fighting racism and animal oppression (as a form of animal oppression) through an "afro-zoological resistance" or "multidimensional liberation" movement. Her advice is pertinent to anyone interested in racial justice, animal liberation, or vegan advocacy.Also check out Aph Ko's website BlackVegansRock.com In Tune to Nature is a 30-minute show airing each Wednesday from 6:30-7pm EST (hosted by Carrie Freeman, Sonia Swartz, or Melody Paris) on 89.3 FM-Atlanta and on wrfg.org.

In countless pop culture and media depictions, animal rights advocates and vegetarians in general, are viewed as effete weirdos, dirty hippies and humorless busybodies. Pop culture staples from "South Park" to "How I Met Your Mother" to "Six Feet Under" have used animal rights and those concerned for animal welfare as a go-to, faux populist target. Content-wise, mocking vegans is the lowest hanging fruit. They’re difficult and self-righteous, a ready-made punching bag. Additionally, the press––including leading left-of-center media MSNBC, The Nation, and Jacobin––ignore the issue entirely. But what if the subject is worth a second look? And, what if our general cultural dislike of vegans is based not on objective experience but a cheap stereotype that allows for in-group signaling, permitting us, above all, to not ask or answer uncomfortable questions about where animals fit on the left. We are joined by author and professor Dr. Lori Gruen and decolonial theorist Aph Ko.
