Just as it’s important and easy to veganize traditional nonvegan meals, it’s just as easy to veganize the March for Animals (Albany to North Rose, New York, Sept 12 – 26).

Tune in to Vegan Nation, Tuesday, September 22, 2026, 4 PM EDT, worldwide at: wcuw.org/listen, and on your radio dial 91.3 FM WCUW in Massachusetts, USA.

VEGAN NATION is a 1/2-hour radio show featuring vegan music, news, events and interviews. On-Air since Jan 2015, founded & hosted by Marlene Narrow, Worcester, Massachusetts, USA.

7/14/26 Vegan Nation announced, over the radio airwaves and beyond, the March for Animals.

Much thanks to Ella Magers, Gretchen Primack and volunteers at March for Animals 2026 NY.

Please tune in to Vegan Nation On-Air broadcast 4 PM to 5 PM (one-hour, 2 shows) and hear a rebroadcast (at 4:30pm) of last week’s show – “World Peace Day” interview with Dr. Will Tuttle.

Thank you for caring enough to hear and be heard.

Why veganize?

Injustice and violence anywhere inevitably results in violence and injustice everywhere…it’s all interconnected – metaphysically & culturally. Be Love, Be Fair, Be Peace, Be Vegan.

When visiting vegan sanctuaries, consumption of animals’ flesh, digestive secretions (honey) & female reproductive secretions (dairy/eggs) is prohibited (and clearly stated). Likewise, one would expect the same ethical response ~ the consumption of victims’ flesh and secretions would be explicitly prohibited at a 207-mile March ‘to end animal abuse & stop the violence’.

It’s a contradiction to Vegans and the masses when a caterer is described as a “vegan caterer”, yet the caterer allegedly sells the flesh of fishes, shrimp, sharks and chickens (at other places). Are not the victims of those caterers valued as much as the beagles in New York?

Are breeders and vivisectors harming and exploiting our animal kin any more so than the carniste-society-at-large is harming, exploiting and violating our animal kin? Beyond time to Unite.

Time and time again, animal advocacy events are organized by noble, well-meaning, ethical vegans, yet, continually (decade after decade) the imperative, very important message of authentic Veganism (which is animal liberation / justice / nonviolence) is intentionally omitted from the general public view (websites, signage, press releases, speeches, mainstream interviews, etc.)

Highly recommended viewing of this 20 minute video by Andy Schulgasser (Sept 15, 2026)

Without reaching a tipping point of Veganism, the injustices and atrocities happening in our world will only continue, in one form or another, at carniste universities, restaurants, businesses, hospitals, homes and institutions. Human/animal liberation, justice and freedom is obviously impossible without the consistent (& unashamed) advocacy and practice of Veganism.

Dr. Susan Craig, owner & operator of Happy Chihuahua Acres (veganic farm & animal sanctuary) joins us to share details of the 100% vegan diet for her 14 dogs, 4 cats, sheep, goats, miniature horses and ponies. She raises awareness of nonvegan ingredients in pelleted animal feed; and we also discuss carniste ingredients in ‘milk replacer formula’ for bovine “dairy” calves. PHOTOS

DISCUSSION: Urgency & relevance of going & staying vegan (noncompliance w/animal abuse), authentic Veganism (human/animal liberation), deep veganism (As we collectively sow, humanity eventually reaps), 100% vegan diet for dogs (including Beagles), cats, ferrets and others. Also discussing vegan restaurants, vegan music, carniste research, and the importance of health/medical freedom for humans and other animals. (Photo by Carl Lavender)

Overview of Chapter 3 THE NATURE OF INTELLIGENCE:

Chapter 3 begins with quotes by Maimonides and Arthur Koestler about humanity’s relationship with other beings and the destructive patterns in history. Because society operates with a lack of understanding of interconnectedness, and the continued suppression of awareness of the cruelty inherent in our commodification and consumption of animals, this leads to broader societal injustice and dysfunction. This ‘Taboo Against Knowing‘ ignorance perpetuates a cycle of co-dependence on harmful practices that ultimately lead to societal dystopia because the animals’ suffering eventually reflects back on humanity. ‘An Interconnected Suffering‘ – By imprisoning, harming and exploiting animals, and stripping them of their intelligence and purpose, this ultimately results in human societies based on domination instead of connection and partnership. The actions taken against animals for food have ramifications that inevitably return to humanity. By adopting a vegan diet and co-creating a Vegan paradigm on Earth, we can foster a culture of respect and care, and we can begin to heal underlying injustice, misogyny, violence, and dysfunction in society.
