The University of British Columbia’s Appropriation of and Attack on Critical Discourse; & Why Postmodernism Fails to Protect Animals

A review of the cookbook “The Happy Herbivore: Over 175 Delicious Fat-Free & Low-Fat Vegan Recipes” by Lindsay S. Nixon. Then a chat with former University of British Columbia students about the university’s attempt to appropriate a radical speaker series on animals that challenges the university’s governance on animals. We also talk to Dr. Gary Steiner, John Howard Harris Professor of Philosophy at Bucknell University, about his forthcoming book Animals and the Limits of Postmodernism.
