Understanding carnism for effective vegan advocacy |
Melanie Joy |
In this presentation, social psychologist Dr. Melanie Joy explains how carnism (the invisible ideology that conditions people to eat animals) shapes the mentality of non-vegans. Dr. Joy then explains how vegans can apply their understanding of carnism to communicate more effectively with non-vegans, advocate more strategically, feel more grounded in and better able to articulate their own choices, and feel more empowered living in a dominant carnistic culture. |
