This week, the sociologist and animal rights advocate Roger Yates returns to the show to discuss vegan values and history, Veganuary and the controversial Million Dollar Vegan campaign, and animal liberation.

This week, I am pleased to present my fifth interview with the sociologist and animal rights advocate Roger Yates, who has been a vegan since 1979. In this interview, Roger speaks about the values held by the founders of the vegan social movement. Additionally, he describes how people obtained information about veganism and animal rights prior to the widespread use of the Internet, how the language that vegan advocates use has changed over the years, and what he imagines a vegan world would be like. We also discuss our views on the Million Dollar Vegan campaign and Veganuary, and Roger tells the story of the time when he witnessed rescued rabbits touching the grass for the first time in their lives.
