Episode 15: Vegan Business, Veganism in Australia, Social Justice Connections, and Anti-Speciesist Language

Australian vegans protest against animal exploitation and
tell passersby to watch the documentary Dominion
For this week's episode of Always for Animal Rights, I interviewed the journalist Katrina Fox. Katrina is the founder of VeganBusinessMedia.com, host of the Vegan Business Talk podcast, and author of Vegan Ventures: Start and Grow an Ethical Business. She has been a vegan since 1996, and she teaches vegan business owners about getting media coverage for their brands.

In our interview, Katrina spoke about her work, what to keep in mind when starting a vegan business, and how the vegan movement in Australia has been going.

After the interview, we’ll hear from the sociologist Corey Lee Wrenn, who will share her perspective on how animal rights and other social justice issues are connected.

Then, in an audio clip from one of Challenge Speciesism's videos, the founder of Challenge Speciesism will explain why we need to avoid euphemistic language when speaking about the violence that is committed against non-human animals.


Finally, at the end of the show we'll hear the song "One Species" by xTRUE NATUREx. It's an amazing song.
