Carnism causes extensive animal suffering and global injustice, and it drives us to act against our own interests and the interests of others without fully realizing what we are doing. Becoming aware of what carnism is and how it functions is vital to personal empowerment and social transformation, as it enables us to make our food choices more freely--because without awareness, there is no free choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDr. Melanie Joy\u003c\/b\u003e is a Harvard-educated psychologist, celebrated speaker, and the author of six books, including the award-winning \u003ci\u003eBeyond Beliefs: A Guide to Improving Relationships and Communication for Vegans, Vegetarians, and Meat Eaters\u003c\/i\u003e; \u003ci\u003ePowerarchy\u003c\/i\u003e: \u003ci\u003eUnderstanding the Psychology of Oppression for Social Transformation\u003c\/i\u003e; and \u003ci\u003eGetting Relationships Right\u003c\/i\u003e.
