Roger Yates has been an ethical vegan and rights-based animal advocate since the late 1970s.
Roger shares with us his path into the AR movement and veganism, and gives us an insight into the often overlooked radical nature of the early vegan pioneers.
We explore the confusion in the movement, and ask whether we actually have an Animal Rights Movement at all.
Roger gives his perspectives on celebrity vegan culture, large international organisations and why grassroots activism is the backbone of the movement.
From wasps to Gary Glitter, via Tom Regan, ALF and a blow to the head from a police baton, Roger talks candidly, and with a generous slice of humour.
