Incredible intersectional text. Taylor writes succinctly about the topic, and includes the necessary breadth of the topics in the book (disability, animal activism, feminism, racism). Necessary read especially for animal rights activists/vegetarians/vegans. Taylor provides an in-depth critique of Peter Singer, Michael Pollan, PETA, and the ableism of animal activism that leaves out disability. She also highlights the beauty in the intersection between the two movements, talking about crip time, queer time, and animal time, and writing about her own experience of the world.
