Thanks for watching! Read all about Ingrid here 👉🏼https://bit.ly/richroll516 The legendary & controversial co-founder and president of PETA, Ingrid Newkirk has spent the better part of her life fighting for animal welfare around the world. Today’s conversation is about Ingrid’s storied and controversial career. It’s about what it takes to not only spark, but lead a movement. And it's a gut check on the current status of animal rights — how far we’ve come, and how much father we have left to go. This conversation was recorded pre-pandemic on February 18, 2020. Therefore there is no coronavirus discussion. However, I think Ingrid's message is profoundly of the moment given the undeniable role animal agriculture plays in fomenting disease. ✌🏼🌱 - Rich EPISODE 516 AUDIO PODCAST Blog & Show Notes: https://bit.ly/richroll516 INGRID NEWKIRK https://peta.org https://twitter.com/IngridNewkirk http://www.ingridnewkirk.com BOOK: ANIMALKIND https://headlines.peta.org/animalkind-book-newkirk-stone/ LISTEN / SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCAST Apple Podcasts: http://bit.ly/rrpitunes Spotify: http://bit.ly/rrpspotify Android: http://bit.ly/rrpgoogle FILMED AND EDITED BY BLAKE CURTIS https://www.blakecurtis.net/ * * * * * CONNECT WITH RICH ✩ Website - http://richroll.com ✩ Pod: Rich Roll Podcast - http://bit.ly/richrollpod ✩ Memoir: Finding Ultra - http://bit.ly/rrfindingultrarev ✩ Meals - http://meals.richroll.com ✩ Cook - The Plantpower Way - http://bit.ly/rrppwbook ✩ Italian! - The Plantpower Way: Italia - http://bit.ly/rrppwitalia ✩ Support - https://www.patreon.com/richroll SOCIALS ✩ Instagram - http://instagram.com/richroll ✩ Twitter - http://twitter.com/richroll ✩ Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/richrollfans ✩ Strava - http://www.strava.com/athletes/richroll NEW TO ME?
