Vegans For Trump? Conspirituality in the Vegan Movement
Listen now
Description
Katie and Nick discuss well-known vegan spiritual figure Supreme Master Ching Hai supporting Donald Trump. We use this as a starting point to cover broader issues around connections between spiritual/wellness movements, including some vegans, and the far-right. This broader discussion draws on Naomi Klein’s book Doppelganger: A Trip into the Mirror World.  Links: We’re releasing this show as two separate podcasts.
