At the rally for Muni this past Tuesday, the Transit Justice organizer announced that burritos were available for whoever wanted one, and I asked, "Are any vegan?"

    She said, "No, and I'm a vegan but didn't order any vegan.  Are you a vegan?"

    I told her I was and just sent a follow-up message. 


I know you probably felt that you shouldn't order vegan burritos for others since most people are not vegans, but I keep thinking when I provide vegan snacks or meals that I'm doing it not for myself but for animal welfare and the environment, so ordering vegan could be considered a civic act rather than a selfish one! 

What do you think?

   I'm not sure that "civic act" was the best phrase.  Maybe this is civil disobedience!
