It seems that many people try to exploit this sad event. They are doing it to push their political agenda and/or to victimize themselves and/or others. This is so low to wish to be seen as a victim, although you are not.. We'll see if this sad event happened because of racism or because of other reasons, like incompetence or lack of professionalism, abuse of power, etc. I repeat: maybe it was a racist act, maybe it was not. Let's wait for the investigation to end and let's leave the Justice do its job. Racism exists in this world, unfortunately. I'm not saying otherwise. I am vegan for almost 11 years, for the ethics, and in all this time I got to a conclusion: - What is worse than a woke person? - A vegan woke person!

The Vegan View
We at The Vegan View recognize our privilege and because of that would like to take this time to participate in the #AmplifyMelanatedVoices challenge created by @blackandembodied and @jessicawilson.msrd (on IG). There will be no new videos this week.
We also encourage you to take a look at who you follow and ask yourself if your feed reflects who needs to be uplifted and heard.
We want to take this time to remind you that it is not up BIPOC to answer your questions and educate you. Instead, it is up to you to do the research (that's already been provided) and see the world 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐬.
We are passing the mic to our favorite black vegan influencers, that if you're not already following -- you should!
