Jane Velez-Mitchell is a former news anchor who created one of the biggest grassroots platforms for information on animal rights. She’s also a recovering alcoholic, who speaks openly about some of her most embarrassing experiences as an addict. And the mistakes Jane has made have, in many ways, given her the wisdom and strength to succeed. What’s true for Jane, however, is true of so many other institutions in society today. The media. Politics. And even mainstream dietary practices. Jane argues that the consumption of animals, for example, is a form of addiction. And that perspective should reshape the way we think about the problem of killing animals for food. What if it’s not a choice, in any meaningful way, but a disease of the human hive mind? Then the problems for solving the problem, as you see in this conversation, might be very different. In particular, maybe the key to creating change is cultivating a sense of openness, for all of us collectively to admit our mistakes, rather than assigning blame or cultivating shame.
