Review | Veganism in an Oppressive World

Picture of a hand with a piece of string on one finger connected to a dangling shape of an animal with a series of raised fists below. Text on the image says "Veganism In An Oppressive World. A Vegans Of Color Community Project. Edited by Julia Feliz Brueck."

Mainstream veganism has plenty of problems, and T.O.F.U. has focused on many of them over the years.
