I have to confess I am a meat lover—a carnivore. I think I tried vegan for one meal, and it didn't take with me. But everybody I've talked to who's gone vegan swears by it. My next guest is such a person. Jeniece Paige is with Black Vegan Health and Wellness.
UnchainedTV has been celebrating Black History Month with a category devoted to videos about the many Black movers and shakers in the vegan movement. Frankly, there are too many to mention. But, suffice it to say, that - according to numerous reports and surveys - African-Americans are going vegan at a higher rate than other demographic groups in the US! And, women are more likely than men to dropkick meat. So, today, we speak with 4 leading Black female voices in the vegan movement. Gwenna Hunter is the founder of Vegans of Los Angeles Food Bank. the first Vegan Food Bank in LA. Naijha Wright-Brown is the Executive Director of the Black Veg Society, a partner in The Land of Kush, VeganSoul Bistro, and co-creator of Vegan Soulfest and Maryland Vegan Restaurant Week. Jasmine Leyva directed and stars in The Invisible Vegan, a brilliant documentary about how veganism can reverse unhealthy dietary patterns in the African-American community. And, Brenda Sanders is the Executive Director of the Afro-Vegan Society, dedicated to helping minority communities transition to a plant-based lifestyle. UnchainedTV's Jane Velez-Mitchell is the host for this compelling conversation.

The Black Vegan Experience is a multicultural educational conference, celebration of African-American ancestry and networking event that was born in November 2019 during a Vitamix demonstration and conversation between a Vegan Teacher, Vegan Nurse, Vegan Nutritionist and Naturopathic Physician. With so many plant-based conferences hosted across the US and locally, there was still little diversity established in most of these medical conferences. This Vegan Quartet sang a new song, one where Black professionals and practitioners would create an educational conference of their own, to address the medical concerns in the Black community and remove the stereotypes attached to Veganism and Black culture. Contributors to this original conversation would go on to form the Committee of Consciousness who have collaborated to host the inaugural event, originally scheduled to debut March 14, 2020, on the rescheduled date of May 15, 2021. Committee of Consciousness is a newly formed non-profit organization that strives to empower others through education. A percentage of the proceeds from The Black Vegan Experience will go to Committee of Consciousness' organization to fund building the knowledge base of plant-based nutrition, meal planning, budgeting and related nutrition services in local communities. Executive Director and Event Coordinator, Vonettia Calloway says, “When we know better, we do better.” She and her fellow COC members believe educating others empowers them to make informed choices in addition to helping us all hold each other accountable to higher standards of self-care and caring for Earth. COC plans to partner with other organizations on projects that eradicate food deserts and grant access to healthy food for all. By the end of 2021, COC believes they will be able to provide transportation for families needing this service, one-to-one and group nutrition consultations, referrals to affordable health care and health & wellness workshops within the community. The Black Vegan Experience, will be a community event, where our keynote speaker, Dr. Milton Mills, from documentaries “What the Health?” and “The Invisible Vegan” (along with producer Jasmine Leyva) will enlighten you on plant-based living, with tentative virtual appearances from Tabitha Brown, other guests, Food, Fun and Fuel for a Vegan Soul…and the Veg-curious of course=) Location: Outside The Flying Squirrels Stadium at 3001 N.

This episode featured the multitalented artist and entrepreneur, Robin Beltran, the brains behind The Black Vegan Company. Her business is on a mission to save lives, starting with food. After an intense life event rocked her world (must listen in to hear the catalyst for the lifestyle change that started it all), Robin set out to heal the trauma her family was experiencing through a plant-based diet. After seeing positive results in her family's physical and mental health, she made it her mission to educate the possibility of healing trauma through diet in black and brown communities- a demographic of people hit hard by social and economic traumas. We discuss the power of plants and the need to change the stigma around vegan foods, how to approach the discussion with friends and family, balancing motherhood while running a business, and refusing to have the word "CAN'T" in her vocabulary. Robin is currently serving the Austin community with The Black Vegan Company through a partnership with her not-for-profit, The Morpho Effect, by serving free organic produce every Monday 7am-10am at The Idea School on Palmer.

Vegan expert Tracye McQuirter, MPH, will give black women the support they need to go vegan, get healthy, and feel great for life. “The 10,000 Black Vegan Women program will help 10,000 African American women go vegan in 2020 to live longer, healthier lives,” says Tracye McQuirter. “Although we have a long history of plant-based pioneers and activists, including Rosa Parks, Coretta Scott King, Angela Davis and others, we also have the most to gain from the health benefits of eating plant-based foods because we experience the highest rates of preventable, diet-related diseases in the country.” With animal agriculture being the leading cause of global warming, the 10,000 Black Vegan Women program gives women of color an opportunity to do something good for their mind, body and the environment, too. “I want to truly change the health paradigm of black women. We are leaders in so many progresive ways, but we are in a crisis when it comes to our health.
