Apologies if you've already seen this - but I really enjoyed this conversation with Jordi Casamitjana as the pilot episode of Vegan FTA's "Vegan Reflections" series. Jordi was my guest back on Sentientism episode 104 so it was fun to have him turn the tables: https://youtu.be/LHJQ8L3YIOQ As ever - I'm only one Sentientist so these are personal views not some canonical representation of Sentientism! All Sentientists will disagree with me on something :)

"One Rights" - A fascinating proposal for a new approach to human animal and non-human animal rights by Saskia Stucki. Based in part on a recognition of #sentience. It's academic - but readable. And it's open access (i.e. free!) https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-031-19201-2

Has #Humanism become just another dogma? Or can it keep moving and improving?
I enjoyed talking about Sentientism to Leslie Rosenblood of Centre for Inquiry Canada on his Podcast for Inquiry. Thanks Leslie.
As ever, I'm just one Sentientist so others may (will) disagree! Feedback always welcome. Why not leave a comment, share around and don't forget to subscribe to CFIC and PFI.

Life in the wild certainly isn't idyllic... but maybe it's not hellish either. Fascinating, and hopeful? paper by Heather Browning and Walter Veit. Guests on #Sentientism podcast episodes 54 and 48 🤩 https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10539-023-09901-5

How we come to exclude so many non-human sentient beings from moral consideration. A fascinating Sentience Institute podcast conversation between two previous #Sentientism podcast guests, Matti Wilks and Jamie Harris. https://www.podchaser.com/podcasts/the-sentience-institute-podcas-1254113/episodes/matti-wilks-on-human-animal-in-161260528

This should be fun. Come along if you're in range of London on April 20th! https://meetup.com/central-london-humanists/events/291188125/

It's encouraging to see mainstream social justice organisations taking on non-human animal causes... Maybe it's one easy step to go from referring to farming octopuses as "torture" to doing the same for all farming of sentient beings? https://secure.avaaz.org/campaign/en/ban_octopus_farming_22_sl/

Should #EffectiveAltruism Take #Abolitionism More Seriously? Dhruv Makwana joins me for Ep: 150 of the Sentientism podcast & YouTube. Let me know what you think!

Imagine how much better the world could be if the #YouTube algorithm guided people to thoughtful conversations about "evidence, reason & compassion for all sentient beings".

You're helping make it happen (slowly 🙂). We've hit 1,500 subs. Thank you! 💚

Q: What should veganism 🌱 & sentient advocacy have to do with disinformation, misinformation and un-founded conspiracism?
