Today on the podcast, Hope digs into traditions. With the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday, compassionate people are thinking about the millions of beautiful turkeys destined for holiday dinner tables. The iconic Norman Rockwell image of the decapitated dead bird on a platter is a tradition in the U.S. that we hold onto as dearly as the last biscuit in the basket.

But traditions are actually more malleable than one might think. Hope offers some examples of how traditions come and go and why the tradition of the Thanksgiving turkey must be scrutinized and left behind in an ethical and compassionate society.

We hope you have a Compassionate Vegan ThanksLiving!
