Saturday: Vegan potluck, talk by Jenna Calabrese

[Guest guest]

At least one person was confused by the date for this. Special guest speaker

Jenna Calabrese will be speaking after our vegan potluck THIS Saturday, July

18th in Oakland. The potluck and talk are free and the space is transit

accessible.

 

Many of you know Jenna from her work as Vegan Outreach's Northeast Outreach

Coordinator. Less well known is her involvement in grassroots activism, in both

non-human and human animal advocacy. I, like many others, very much respect the

dedication and thoughtfulness she brings to activism and I'm looking forward to

hearing her speak about how her work in various areas of advocacy interrelate.

 

As I had mentioned before, Jenna is a member of the LOVE collective, part of the

growing worldwide movement dedicated to living the vegan ideal of

non-exploitation. She blogs regularly at http://loveallbeings.org/vegan-blog/

and so you may check out some of her writing before Saturday's talk.

 

We strongly believe veganism should be accessible to all. African Americans,

Latinas/Latinos, Native Americans, Asians, Asian Americans -- all those who make

up our vibrant community are invited and welcome to all events. If you have any

accessibility requests, please send Miranda or me an email.
