Is veganism anti-Indigenous? And if not, why do so many people believe it is? Let's discuss! Indigenous vegan and anti-oppression advocate Jen Bell Rivera joins Alisha to dispel this myth and clarify its origins in white veganism - the whitewashing of mainstream veganism that leads to BIPOC erasure within the movement. Jen discusses how the movements for animal liberation and Indigenous sovereignty share many common values and recommends actions vegans can take to make the movement more inclusive of and accessible to Native peoples. // Find Jen on Instagram at @jenriverabell and on her blog, jenriverabell.com. // Subscribe to Jen's YouTube channel. // Become a patron of Jen on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/JenRiveraBell. // View the MeatBusters episode webpage for a list of resources recommended by Jen: thelishlife.com/blog/2021/1/29/is-veganism-anti-indigenous
