Listen Later

In this powerful episode, Sean A. Russell sits down with legendary journalist, author, and activist Jane Velez-Mitchell for a wide-ranging conversation that bridges broadcast media, Vegan advocacy, and cultural change. Jane shares her deeply personal Vegan origin story, shaped by family history, investigative journalism, and a defining on-air moment that transformed her life.

Together, they explore Jane’s decades in television news, her work at CNN Headline News, and how that experience led to the creation of JaneUnchained.com, a global Vegan news network powered by grassroots contributors. The discussion dives into animal agriculture, climate change, worker justice, media responsibility, and the role of social media as a modern activism tool.

Jane also reflects on inclusivity in the Vegan movement, the rise of plant-based food innovation, the impact of COVID-19, and why compassion is the true foundation of a healthier, more just world.

Listeners will leave inspired, informed, and reminded that every voice, post, and choice matters.
