Hello Amy Lynn,

 

If you have access to a printer, L.O.V.E. has B & W pamphlets that are you

are welcome to download (

http://loveallbeings.orgLOVE-Vegan-Pamphlet.pdf ), print and

distribute any way you see fit. Dairy and eggs are highlighted and there

is a strong vegan message. As well, given that we are in a time when

free-range, sustainable animal products are becoming increasingly

popular, you may appreciate the pamphlet's focus on the exploitation of

animals rather than on factory farms. As has been discussed on this list

recently, advocacy that focuses on factory farms very naturally leads

people to conclude that eating non-factory farm animal products is okay

(and it is, if the objection is to factory farms).

 

Pamphlets can be a great way to start conversations about veganism and

these conversations tend to be framed by the content of the pamphlet, so

I think it's worth taking some time to find a pamphlet that matches your

reasons for being vegan rather than use whatever is available simply

because it also happens to be about abstaining from animal products. I

know in my own advocacy using material that is true to my veganism has

meant a shift from having frustrating conversations to having productive

ones.

 

Best wishes for your advocacy at Mount Madonna!

i've been staying at mount madonna for a while in a work study program

(exhausting) and will be there another month. the community practices

Astanga

Yoga and the main precept in non-violence so they are vegetarian. however,

there are very few vegans. vegan food is offered during all meals and many

guests are vegan but community residents (especially old timers) are

not. if you

have any why vegans laying around ...or what's wrong with dairy? what's

wrong

with eggs? (anything on eggs/dairy) that you no longer want, please mail

it to

me at mount madonna. consider it karma yoga.

Amy,

 

One of my favorite flyers is the What's Wrong with Dairy & Eggs flyer by Action

for Animals. You can find their literature here:

 

https://store.afa-online.org/home.php?cat=284

 

I tried to order a set of 50 of their flyers sent to you, but they had a minimum

order of $10.00, so I sent you some other flyers as well.

 

What's Wrong with Dairy & Eggs (50)

Free-Range Myth (50)

Protecting Your Bones (50)

What's Wrong with Wool, Leather, Down & Silk? (50)

 

I also sent some What's Wrong with Dairy and The Truth about Chickens flyers

from PETA, so be on the lookout.
