Welcome to Our Henhouse. This is Marianne Sullivan. And this is Jasmine Singer. Thank you so much for joining us this week. You're going to be really glad you did. I am super excited about this week's interview. Jasmine will be speaking with Amy Kichis. She is the founder of Veggie Mijas, which is a

woman of color collective that highlights the importance of veganism through the lens of those

with marginalized identities. I bet you're excited now too. Did you love this interview,

Jasmine? I loved it. Yeah. And we've actually, for a bunch of reasons, been holding it to air at the end of the year, just because we wanted to, you know, put something super strong at the end of the year. So I'm really excited about it. I've been excited for a long time. And on this week's flock bonus content, I'll also be continuing my conversation with Amy. So as always, if you're a

flock member, you will get a link to the bonus segment in your email on the Tuesday after this

podcast episode goes up. Or you can always find it on the flock Facebook group. And if you're not a

stressful. It's always stressful this time of year. It's always exciting. But like, you know, as we're recording this, we're not there,

like by any means.

We still have a ways to go.

You know, I feel like I've been sort of waiting for the launch of my book to, like,

really focus on how stressed I am about this.

But now that the book has launched, I am like all about us making

this goal because we need pro animal responsible vegan media more than ever before. So if you can

make a donation, then please do so. And we will be so grateful to you. We are like glued to our computers

trying to make this happen. So our headhouse.org slash donate. And there's some really great

perks that we've been offering as well if you become a flock member. Actually, one of them is our
