Marxism + Veganism

As more people take on the vegan lifestyle, I feel compelled to write this piece to bring out the necessity of a Marxist approach to veganism for the growth of the animal rights movement. The vegan movement is one that believes in non-humans right to life without exploitation. The vegan lifestyle is one that does not use nor consume any product that had come, or has an ingredient, from an animal or animal exploitation. Examples of what is not vegan: honey in tea, an egg and cheese sandwich, leather, horseback riding, going to zoos, etc. As one practices a vegan lifestyle, the more it becomes apparent how many times animal products, and unnecessarily too, are used in everyday products from cigarettes to toothpaste. Often vegan products or companies trying to appeal to vegans will label their products “cruelty-free” which then becomes very controversial since that is often not true, something or someone had been exploited. The point of veganism has now become to live as ethically

President Maduro and President Miguel Diaz-Canel come to NYC

The Riverside Church in Harlem has been known for it's welcoming of revolutionaries and humanists in a country that provides no refuge for those standing up for the oppressed.

Five Afro-Latinx Activists

While American media might make it seem like the Afro-Latinx identity has only existed since debates over Cardi B's race, we've always been here, we've always been speaking about our blackness, we've always been the ones forced to defend our latinidad at the hands of white and mestizo latinx. While American and Latino media will homogenize the "latin" ethnicity with light-skin white and mestizo latinx, we've been the ones on the ground underrepresented and erased. Here are Afro-Latinx who have led movements and combated injustices that you already know about. Susana Baca - Beyond being one of the most prominent Afro-Peruvian figures and a two time Latin Grammy Award winner, Susana Baca uses her platform to advocate for the justice of the 2.5 million Afro-Peruanx in Peru. Baca had served as Peru’s Minister of Culture and Arts. Her album Afrodiaspora is a poetic composition of the struggles of afro latinidad.   source: ANDINA (2012). Cantante
