Animal liberation is deeply political but our politicians often get a rep for putting issues concerning animal rights on the back burner. What if the vegan community had some actual representation in office? Meet Oye Owolewa, a vegan of four years and a candidate for US Representative in DC! Alisha interviews Oye about the key issues he plans on addressing, why non-vegans should care about laws and regulations concerning animal rights, and how the animal rights community can improve and grow to become an active voice in politics. // Visit Oye's website, https://www.oye4dc.com/ to learn more about his vision. // Follow Oye on Facebook and Instagram at @oye4dc or find him on Twitter at @AdeoyeOwolewa.
