T.O.F.U. #15 | Meet the Vegan Artists

Image contains three even columns with illustrations in each. The first is an illustration of a red tree with leaves. At the base of the tree, grey stick figures of various sizes can be seen holding their arms up to form the structure of the tree. The feet of the figures go into the ground and can be seen as roots below. In the background, there are fields with rows of crops. The second is an illustration of a pair of hands working to plant a plant in some soil, and there is a brown picket fence in the background. The third is a black and white illustration of a silhouette of person's head. The top of their head is opened up and there are a number of illustrated things coming out of it. The biggest is a white hand holding a flower, but there are also various smaller plants, signs of gender, and stick figures of people. On the silhouette's face, there is text that says "e commo thread... comm".

Every issue requires artwork to go along with some of the articles, and these are the artists that made that happen for T.O.F.U. #15. Read More »

T.O.F.U. #15 | Release Video

Image contains a black background with a yellow circular object coming up from the bottom of the frame. The visible middle portion of the object is missing, and it looks like a mouth. Above the object, there are two blocks of text. The larger one, just below the middle of the image, says "Making Change". The word "Making" is in white, and the word "Change" is in orange. The smaller block of text below says "Will simply eating all the vegan things" in one line and "save the world?" in another. The words "save the world?" are in orange. Just above the text, there is a small brown piece of what looks like ground beef. At the very top of the image, there is text that says "T.O.F.U." in white, and within that text there is more text that says "T.O.F.U. Magazine". The word “T.O.F.U.” is in orange. Just below the white T.O.F.U., there is text that says "Issue 15 Capitalism November 2019”.

In case you didn't already know about the new issue's release, I decided to make a video announcement about it. Read More »

If you follow any vegan travel discussions, especially involving Thailand, the topic of ethical elephant sanctuaries comes up a lot. With that in mind, I was happy to sit down earlier this year with a friend to talk about just how complicated the issue is and whether or not folks can really see elephants in an ethical way. Read More »
