ARZone Podcast Number Three! Communicating About Communication.

[Carolyn Bailey]

After a productive ARZone guest interview, or "chat," with Colleen Patrick-Goudreau of Compassionate Cooks, the ARZone team discuss a clip from one of Colleen's podcasts in which she talks about communicating with those we disagree with - and also those we agree with.

The ARZone team for podcast 3 are Carolyn Bailey, Barbara DeGrande, Tim Gier, Jason Ward, and Roger Yates.

Bravo (clapping hands). I humbly disagree with some of the sentiments about vegans talking to vegans & preaching to the choir. I understand the importance of talking to the unconverted but don't underestimate the power of talking to the converted. Tim said that Matt Ball & Gary Y say that you're not really doing much when you talk to vegans. Wrong, simply wrong. This also incorporates Rogers point about not being able to talk to others.  I know for me it has been hard to articulate how I feel & what I have been wanting to say to non vegans in an effort for them to 'see the light'. Having ARZone, Facebook, Gary's speech etc to learn from has empowered me to move forward & have the confidence to discuss veganism. Being involved has also opened my eyes to abolition (little a). Keep preaching to the choir - you are do it so well ARZone
