Ep. 3 : Vegans Against All Oppression
In episode 3, Elle and I chat about how mainstream white veganism brought us together and something rad that coalesced as a result (with many others involved!): V.A.A.O. (Vegans Against All Oppression), an international vegan coalition, working to transform and confront oppressive structures in human society today. VAAO was founded by Elle, Iye Bako, Dominick Thompson & Robbie Lockie and was launched in January 2021. We also discussed the nuances of Elle's TV show 'Elle Travels Vegan' in which they show off the vegan lifestyle all over the world whilst weaving in real talk about local social, human and climate justice issues. Ellen (Elle) Flores is an afro-Latinx, gender-queer, vegan flight attendant. Elle is the co-founder of Vegans Against All Oppression (VAAO), the host of her own TV show "Elle Travels Vegan" that they star in, directs & edits and they are very active within the human and animal rights movements. They are just an all around radical & glorious human!

<p>For this first episode of Radicalize the Roots, my dear friend Poli and I discuss how exclusion, as well as misogyny and other oppressive behaviours, are rampant in the mainstream animal rights movement, specifically in the big orgs. Super specifically, one organization in particular...</p> <p>A quick content warning- sexual harrassment & rape is brought up, also the threat of those and murder as a result of doing activism...</p> <p>Poli Sotomayor is a pro-intersectional activist and nomad living in Mexico.
