"the basis for peace is respecting all creatures." César Chávez
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..

Killer Mike - "Reagan" (Official Music Video)
"the ballot or the bullet, some freedom or some bullshit, will we ever do it big, or keep just settling for little shit, we brag on having bread, but none of us are bakers, we all talk having greens, but none of us own acres, if none of us on acres, and none of us grow wheat, then who will feed our people when our people need to eat, so it seems our people starve from lack of understanding, cos all we seem to give them is some balling and some dancing." Killer Mike

i was reluctant to put this up because i think common was vegan for a short period of time, but people still cling tightly to the idea that he still is. here's some information on his fall from veganism:

Akala Interview - Rhyme On Beat
Akala Interview - Rhyme On Beat
excerpt:
Akala: It was simply to do with health. I done some research and I don’t believe human beings are designed to eat meat, I believe that meat is detrimental to our health. It was a totally selfish decision, it’s not because I love the animals and I don’t wear leather. My car has leather seats in it and I wear leather shoes. Totally selfishly I don’t believe meat is good for me so I don’t eat it.
