There are ongoing ups, downs, stresses, struggles, and successes. Thank you to all of our volunteers, interns, staff Omembers, donors, and people with a sense of humor who have made this journey possible for 35 years. The Vegetarian Resource Group was started in 1982 by Ernie Kopstein, a vegan medical doctor and Holocaust survivor; Norris Fluke, a vegan Senior Olympics swimming medalist; Audrey Fluke, a vegetarian nurse; and vegan activists Debra Wasserman and Charles Stahler. All had previously participated in Vegetarian Society of D.C. activities. Debra was VSDC’s treasurer and Charles was their secretary for several years. Our intention was to participate in a vegetarian group in Baltimore. When we went to an address from a list of existing vegetarian organizations, we found an abandoned building. So we started a new group originally called Baltimore Vegetarians. Our goal from the beginning was to be scientific, practical, and of assistance to others. As we produced materials, we soon had tens of thousands of people from all over the country asking us for information. Thus was born The Vegetarian Resource Group and Vegetarian Journal. Many ideas we tried locally have since been replicated in other areas. Thank you to all who have contributed in their own unique ways to advancing a better world.

Mangels’ assertion that vegetarian or vegan diets can meet the nutritional needs of infants and children is supported by the review of evidence-based literature appearing in the Academy’s position statement on vegetarian diets published in 2009.1 This continuing education course will discuss some of the current trends in plant-based eating, examine some of the potential health benefits associated with plant-based eating, and set out specific strategies for parents interested in raising vegetarian or vegan children. Vegetarians and Vegans: What’s the Difference? According to the Academy’s position statement, a vegetarian is a person who does not eat meat, poultry, seafood, or prod- ucts containing these foods.1 But within this broad definition, there is much variation as to what animal foods people avoid.

Anthropology Senior Theses. Paper 156. This paper is posted at ScholarlyCommons. https://repository.upenn.edu/anthro_seniortheses/156 For more information, please contact [email protected]. More Than Just A Diet: An Inquiry Into Veganism Abstract BACKGROUND: The vegan diet has gained momentum in recent years, with more people transitioning to the diet, whether for health or more ethically based reasons. The vegan diet, often characterized as very restrictive, is associated with health benefits but aisesr concerns. Controversy regarding the diet exists within the public sphere, with those actively supporting and advocating for it, and others questioning its purpose and proposed benefits, even disparaging its existence, perhaps because of a lack of knowledge about the diet. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to provide a fuller picture of the vegan diet, encompassing both the nutrition and health of the vegan diet as well as related ethical beliefs by studying scientific and popular literature in tandem. Furthermore, the study aimed to provide an insider’s perspective of the vegan diet as a means of combating stereotypes and making the diet more relatable/understandable to those who are not vegan. By combining all three sources, the project aims to educate the public regarding a diet and lifestyle that is often perceived, at least partially, in a negative manner.

  • A Critical Analysis of Recent Approaches in Animal Ethics
    Animals without Rights: A Critical Analysis of Recent Approaches in Animal Ethics by BOAZ SHARONI B.A., Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, 2011 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in The Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies (Political Science) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) November 2014 © Boaz Sharoni, 2014 Abstract Non-human animals suffer greatly and are exploited in numerous ways by humans. This is a grave injustice that points to an urgent need for an adequate framework from which to protect animals from mistreatment by humans. Although classical theories in the animal rights literature have existed for some time now, in recent years few theorists have engaged in the effort to find more persuasive theories under which the mistreatment of animals by humans should be considered. Two influential attempts to develop such a theory were undertaken by Martha Nussbaum in her article and book chapter "Beyond Compassion and Humanity: Justice for Nonhuman Animals" (2004, 2006), and by Robert Garner in his books Animal Ethics (2005) and A Theory of Justice for Animals: Animal Rights in a Nonideal World (2013). In this paper, I argue that both these approaches have fundamental flaws that prevent them from being adequate theoretical frameworks under which to protect animals. Through careful examination of the theories, I show why they can't fulfill what they claim to, and should be rejected. The only real way to protect animals, I argue, is to assign them universal rights under the theoretical concept of justice. Taking animal rights seriously means that they have these rights by virtue of their selfhood and sentience.

This information should not be used as a substitute or replacement for advice, diagnosis or treatment from your healthcare provider. AFRICAN AMERICAN VEGAN STARTER GUIDE Welcome I’m Tracye McQuirter, public health nutritionist, author and vegan for 30 years, and it’s my pleasure to welcome you to the African American Vegan Starter Guide, where we show you sim- ple ways to begin a plant-based lifestyle. So if you’ve been thinking about going vegan, congratulations! It can be one of the most life-changing decisions you’ll ever make. And in this guide, we’ll help you get there. I’m joined by some of my expert colleagues in the plant-based field to answer your most common questions about how to transition to vegan food. With everything from why to do it, what to eat, how to get all the nutrients you need, how to make it affordable and delicious, how to eat out and socialize as a vegan, and how to raise vegan children—we’ve got you covered. We know going vegan can seem challenging, but don’t worry. We’ve been there. In fact, in my case, I never thought I’d be a vegan. Growing up, I actually hated healthy food, especially vegetables. In 7th grade, I even wrote a petition against two of my teachers who wanted to make our class camping trip all-vegetarian. (I was overruled.) So what changed for me? During my sophomore year at Amherst College, our Black Student Union brought legendary civil rights activist and comedian Dick Gregory to campus to talk about the state of black America.
