Have you
ever been curious about what it is like to adopt a vegan lifestyle? Do you ever
wonder about the benefits and drawbacks of eating a plant-based diet? Do you
have questions about how humanely animals are treated in the American farm and
slaughterhouse system?
The
Alexandria Campus Library, in partnership with a coalition of Vegetarian/Vegan
Alexandria Campus students, is hosting a screening of the 2011 documentary Vegucated. This work addresses some
critical questions about the American diet and food consumption habits from the
vegan perspective. Billed by the movie’s director as “part sociological
perspective and part adventure comedy,” Vegucated
covers the journey of three non-vegetarians New-Yorkers as they struggle to
embrace a totally plant-based diet.
So come join
library staff and Alexandria campus community members on Thursday, March 20th
in on the upper floor of the library to learn more about the philosophy and
practice of this lifestyle. The movie
begins at 4 pm in Room 327. Vegan snacks and prizes
will be provided to participants after the viewing.
