We Are Vegans Not Simply Because Being

People Need To Be Educated So That They Can Make Intelligent Moral Choices

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

If You Are Not Vegan, Please Consider Going Vegan. It’s A Matter Of Nonviolence. Being Vegan Is Your Statement That You Reject Violence To Other Sentient Beings, To Yourself, And To The Environment, On Which All Sentient Beings Depend.

Just As We Reject Racism, Sexism, Ageism, And Heterosexism, We Reject Speciesism. The Species Of A Sentient Being Is No More Reason To Deny The Protection Of This Basic Right Than Race, Sex, Age, Or Sexual Orientation Is A Reason To Deny Membership In The Human Moral Community To Other Humans.

Being Vegan Provides Us With The Peace Of Knowing That We Are No Longer Participants In The Hideous Violence That Is Animal Exploitation.
