In this week’s episode, Emma, Tylor and Jordan are joined by Kayla Kaplan (@VeggieKayla) to discuss vegan nutrition, examples of body shaming in the Harry Potter series, and how ties between morality and appearance throughout the series relate to issues we see in the animal rights and vegan movements.

 

*Content warning: this episode contains light discussions of body-shaming within the Harry Potter series and throughout the vegan movement, as well as mentions of disordered eating, so please avoid if this will be at all triggering for you!*

  

 Also in this episode: 

 

  1. Kayla tells us about how and why she co-founded The Vegan Zine, and why finding your local vegan community can be super rewarding.
  2. A deep-dive into body-shaming within both Harry Potter and the vegan movement, and the problem with “Longbottoming”
  3. Vegan nutrition and focusing on compassion and nurturing yourself and others
  4. Kayla’s tips on where to go to find out more about nutrition and intersectional, anti-oppression veganism!



We’ll return soon for another episode exploring animal rights in the Wizarding World, but in the meantime, be sure to send us your thoughts via email, leave a review, join our Patreon, and, on behalf of all magical creatures, Protego Maxima!
