Book Group - The Modern Savage by James McWilliams

Join us to discuss The Modern Savage by James McWilliams, an exploration of the "compassionate carnivore" movement and the paradox of humanity's relationship with animals. Although animal products are often labeled "cage free," "free range," and "humanely raised," can we trust these goods to be safe, sound, or ethical? In poignant, powerful, and persuasive prose, McWilliams reveals the scope of the cruelty that takes place even on the smallest and-supposedly-most humane animal farms. In a world increasingly aware of animals' intelligence and the range of their emotions, McWilliams advocates for the only truly moral, sustainable choice-a diet without meat, dairy, or other animal products.

The meeting will be hosted by Nathan Poirier.
