Karen Davis of United Poultry Concerns discusses the social justice issues relating to slaughterhouse workers, farmed animals, and animal advocates.

United Poultry Concerns, founded by Karen Davis, is a nonprofit organization that promotes the compassionate and respectful treatment of domestic fowl including a sanctuary for chickens in Virginia. Karen is the author of numerous books, essays, articles and campaigns advocating for these birds. Her latest book is For the Birds: From Exploitation to Liberation: Essays on Chickens, Turkeys, and Other Domesticated Fowl.

I highly recommend it, and you can find it all at UPC-online.org.

PlantPure Communities shares interesting facts and statistics about a Whole Food Plant Based diet that you can use when discussing a WFPB diet with family and friends.

The nonprofit organization PlantPure Communities (PPC) works to build stronger, healthier, and more sustainable communities through research, policy, and program activities. They collaborate with local community organizations to educate people about the health and environmental benefits of a whole food, plant-based (WFPB) diet.

PPC was formed following the release of the 2015 documentary, PlantPure Nation, which you can now watch free on YouTube. This film demonstrates how political and economic interests suppressed the message of plant-based nutrition for decades and concludes with a call-to-action for people to form local plant-based support groups called "pods". Plant Pure Communities offers a wealth of resources to support these local groups.

Colin Campbell, PhD, is the Science Advisor to PlantPure Communities. He is co-author of the New York Times bestselling book The China Study, is a bio/nutritional researcher with over 60 years of experience in the field of nutritional science. Dr. Campbell is the Jacob Gould Schurman Professor Emeritus of Nutritional Biochemistry at Cornell University, and is the founder of the T. Colin Campbell Center for Nutrition Studies and the online Plant-Based Nutrition Certificate in partnership with eCornell.
