I am really looking forward to more Vegan events in PR since it could help make Puerto🇵🇷Rico see that we are needing more vegan restaurants & vegan options . We also need more animal rights activists in PR speaking up for the animals.

I have seen too many boricuas say they are supposedly "Vegan" while not even understanding that being Vegan isnt a diet. And one who has a Plant-Based diet alone, wont make that person Vegan. Because Veganism is a social justice movement FOR THE ANIMALS (not for the health of humans, or for the protection of the environment). Our health will stay the same if someone abuses animals by visiting zoos, circuses, SeaWorld, buying companion animals, buying makeup with animal ingredients & being tested on them. This person might be eating a PBDiet, but still is accountable for all the animal abuse they pay for in other forms. Veganism is about animal rights and THERE IS NO VEGANISM WITHOUT ANIMAL RIGHTS.

For those that want to see the reality of all the animal abuse that non-vegans are responsible for, watch "DOMINION", "EARTHLINGS" documentary on YouTube.
