Veganism, Socialism and Capitalism: Introducing Meg to the FoS Team

Nick and Meg discuss a wide range of topics including: Meg’s journey when it comes to thinking about our obligations towards other animals, avoiding centring humans in animal liberation struggles, connections between veganism and socialism, and finally, capitalism, class and veganism.
