Animal Rights from Brasil to Germany: The State of the Movement Around the World
Today we catch up with Bob Linden, host of "Go Vegan!"- the commercial animal rights radio show heard all over the country. Then, we hear from Rynn Berry, the well-respected historian of the animal rights movement, who has recently returned from the first large-scale animal rights conference in Brasil. After Rynn catches us up with the state of the movement in that country, he'll take us to Germany, with a preview of this summer's International Vegetarian Union congress, held on the occasion of the 100 year anniversary of the first IVU Congress that met in Dresden in 1908.

The Father of Vegan Radio and inspiration for our show
Thanks to all the vegans
for making the decision to be the best, most caring people on Earth, and thanks
to all pre-Vegans with open minds, who think for themselves, who are about to
