WHO ARE THE SPEAKERS?

Sunaura Taylor is an artist, writer and activist disabled from U.S military pollution, a legacy that has affected all aspects of her work, which focuses on human-animal relationships. She graduated from the University of California, Berkeley in the department of Art Practice with her MFA.

Vasile Stanescu is a PhD student and writer at Stanford in the Modern Thought and Literature program focusing on the image of the animal through the lens of post-colonial critical theory and food politics.

Mission Statement:
To examine our relationship to non-human animals through food, consumer alternatives, speakers, discussion, and the celebration of cruelty-free culture. How do the foods we eat and the products we buy effect non-human animals? What is Speciesism and how does it relate to Racism or Sexism? How can we promote a healthy environment for both human and non-human animals?
