The 'Animals are people too' theatre lecture
Why do we eat animals when we know how much suffering it causes? And what does that choice do to our planet and our health?
In this theatre lecture, Teun van de Keuken delves into those questions. Inspired by his book Animals are People Too, he shows why quitting meat is so difficult. Also for himself.
Together with Kees Foekema, he takes you behind the scenes of the meat industry. You see how our eating behaviour did not come about by itself. It has been shaped by history, politics and clever marketing.
With humour and sharp insights, they unravel the system behind our food.
The conclusion is clear: not only animals are 'wrapped up'. So are we.
But there is also good news.
A fairer and healthier food system is within reach.
