this is where food justice with a plant-based/decolonial diet perspective meet hip hop and where we explore the intersections of other animal/human/earth liberation. hip hop is rooted in resistance and rich with experience in fighting for social justice. veganism is about practicing compassion and is motivated by living cruelty-free for the sake of other animals. the fusion of veganism and hip hop is designed to promote holistic activism..

disclaimer: i've seen this guy's name around and never bothered because he has the stupid-money sign in his name, he's only pescatarian, and i just made the mistake of checking out his video...he's pretty typical: a sexist capitalist.

"To say that noise is a relatively weak issue because it is less momentous than world hunger or global climate change is to make an incomplete statement. Noise is a weak issue also because most of those it affects are perceived, and very often dismissed, as weak. The ones who dismiss them, in addition to being powerful, are often the ones making the noise."

Dolphin Slaughter in Denmark
this one is for those of you, who forget that capitalism is a world-wide phenomenon and that its absolutely barbaric wherever it's practiced. dolphins are not only being slaughtered in japan and the cruelty to other animals in china isn't any different than it is in the americas, europe, etc. i'm sharing this because animal whites (not a type-o) and other short-sighted/singular-issue activists love to point the finger at asia instead of looking around them.
