Abstract
Student leaders Ian Tjoelker and Ella Vanden Berg invited me to do a two session workshop on several chapters of Hungry Beautiful Animals in the Calvin University Student Philosophy Symposium.
Hungry Beautiful Animals frames Halteman’s idea as an opportunity rather than an obligation. “Going vegan” is an incremental journey rather than an identity earned by perfection. This is why Halteman focuses on the distinction between veganism, which implies a perfectionistic state, and “going vegan,” which is aspirational, and something to continually strive towards.
