Back to EpisodesVeganism as a Moral Imperative: The Case Proved. By Gary L. Francione
Description
Gary L. Francione continues our "Debating Veganism" section, responding to Ronald Lindsay's criticism of his arguement. Francione claimes that his book, Why Veganism Matters: The Moral Status of Animals, does not seek to convince those who believe animals lack moral value but rather asserts that anyone who acknowledges animals' moral worth must logically adopt veganism.
