Join us to learn how extraordinary Black activists are shaping the future of animal activism and vegan advocacy. You'll hear from movement leaders with expertise in health and wellness, animal law, food relief, digital media, and community outreach. And we'll share actions you can take to support and celebrate the work of Black activists, not just during Black History Month but every day.

Here are our inspiring panelists:

- Brialle Ringer, holistic health coach and founder of Be Well with Brialle

- Eloísa Trinidad, executive director at Chilis on Wheels NYC, co-founder of Vegan Activist Alliance, NYC chapter president at Hip Hop Is Green, and advisory council member for the Vegan Museum

- Akisha Townsend Eaton, animal protection attorney and community advocate

- Christopher "Soul" Eubanks, vegan outreach coordinator at the Save Movement, community organizer, and advisory council member for Encompass

We are excited to share that this panel features recipients of the 2020 The People's Fund, a program that provides grants to Black activists working to build a compassionate plant-based food system.
