Hollywood Has a Vegan Problem | Ep. 121
About this episode
The episode discusses the portrayal of vegans in Hollywood films and the cultural implications of these representations.
Today, we're talking about vegan representation in movies. Basically, how does Hollywood portray us vegans to an audience of millions? Why do movies so often miss the mark, misunderstanding us or turning us into the butt of the joke? Why do science fiction movies so often imagine the future as vegan? Is Okja a good vegan movie or not? Those are some of the questions we'll be answering today.
