VEGAN OF THE MONTH

"She is given to bursting out with such statements as: 'Any woman who isn't a feminist is an idiot!'" reports this newspaper article on Susan Powter, of "Stop the Insanity" fame. (I don't see why we should limit that statement to women, but that's a subject for another blog.) No more shaved head, but she "still has the muscles, the machine-gun delivery and the righteous anger that has endeared her to millions of women." A vegan, Powter says of the meat and dairy industries, "I'm just pissy enough to tell the truth," she says. "I'm not afraid of rage." If only we could Stop the Insanity of institutionalized animal abuse.
