The last (for now) of a series of short videos introducing a number of blog entries on Vegfest Express about the vegan movement pioneers.
This time, Ronnie Lee, vegan activist since 1972. When Ronnie Lee joined the Northampton hunt sabs in the 1970s, he quickly discovered that he was the only vegan in the group.
Ronnie learnt that it was much the same situation in the other groups that he had joined. "These organisations which campaigned against animal experimentation, against the fur trade, and against hunting - the people that ran these organisations were meat eaters. They’d hold up a placard in one hand...eating a chicken sandwich in the other."
