Holiday Survival Guide: How to Argue with a Meat Eater Book Discussion

With Thanksgiving and the winter holiday season right around the corner, many of us are preparing to navigate family dinners, holiday potlucks, and social gatherings where food choices—and animal ethics—inevitably come up.

Whether you dread the classic "where do you get your protein?" question, want to handle holiday table debates with calm, non-confrontational confidence, or simply want to connect with fellow community members in a warm, supportive space, this meetup is for you!

We’ll be discussing Ed Winters’ book, How to Argue With a Meat Eater (And Win Every Time).

About the Book: Written by educator Ed Winters (Earthling Ed), How to Argue With a Meat Eater (And Win Every Time) breaks down common objections to veganism—from tradition and ethics to health and logic. Rather than pushing aggressive debate tactics, the book focuses on empathetic listening, Socratic questioning, and having calm, effective conversations with loved ones.

Note: You don't need to have finished, or even started the book to join! Come along to listen, learn, and chat.
