Comments on: Sistah Vegan Project http://pattricejones.info/blog/archives/100 communications from an eco-anarcha-feminist animal Fri, 10 Sep 2010 04:10:38 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.1 By: Breeze Harper http://pattricejones.info/blog/archives/100#comment-815 Breeze Harper Fri, 17 Aug 2007 12:24:12 +0000 http://pattricejones.info/blog/archives/100#comment-815 Gary, How did that discussion go? I find it interesting that there are Sistah Vegans that were extremely offended by the PETA Animal Liberation Project. It may be a generation thing, as I recall a couple of Sistah Vegans 50+ in which that ad from PETA brought back memories from a time in which I had not experienced (was born after 1976), such as Civil Rights Movement and the era before that. Then again, there are those who are my age and are strict vegans but do not agree with PETA's parallel to human suffering. Overall, the black women who do not agree with PETA are far outnumbered by those who sympathized and understood the message without being offended. Breezie Gary,

I first became aware of the Sistah Vegan project a couple of years ago, when I was discussing PETA's Animal Liberation Project with African-American co-workers. Great stuff in there.
