Kaixo listeners of What the Basque!! This week, we bring you a program about veganism. Is the anti-especiesism movement strong in Euskal Herria? Not much? Are there any organized groups?

In Rub the Skin section, Lutxia and Tania will explain how they understand this fight and whether they think it´s strong over here. Afterwards, Leire and Irati from Bezala will explain their experience in that group and their future plans…

For Hala Bedi Method, this time we’ll take some Basque idioms, traditional idiomatic expresions related to non human animals. Are you intrigued? Have some fun and learn a bit of Euskara with us!

This time we won´t have time for Nor-Nori-News section, but we must inform you about the recent premiere of Gurean documentary, recorded in secret and produced by the animalist group Askekintza. Check out the trailer:

As Leire pretty well explains, it´s not that important how many groups there are, but how strong the social movement and awareness are. Anyway, here you have a list of the organized groups, coordinated and working hard every day to make the point: Bezala, Askekintza, Tolosaldea Antiespezista, Uluak, Goierri Antiespezista, Vegan Pays Basque,  Liberabere, Piztiak Konpartsa…

This programme is produced in Hala Bedi radio, in the city of Vitoria-Gasteiz, and it’s broadcast on Tuesdays (19:00-20:00). Also broadcast in Melbourne, the last Friday of every month, by 3CR. We want to say hello to our friends in Australia! 3CR Community Radio, don’t give up the fight!!
