Do slaughterhouse videos influence you?

Do slaughterhouse videos change your opinion of how animals should be treated? On the next Your Call, we'll have a conversation about undercover investigations into how animals are slaughtered for food. Have you been influenced by amateur videos and how? Join us live at 10 or send us an email at feedback@yourcallradio.org. There have been efforts in many states to make these videos illegal. What do these videos reveal about how we treat animals? And should they be legislated? It's Your Call, with Rose Aguilar and you.

Guests:
Tom Laskawy, a contributing writer on food and agriculture for Grist Magazine

Nathan Runkle, the founder and executive director of Mercy For Animals

Your Call 102507 The Mad Cowboy

What can we learn about the meat and dairy industry from a Montana farmer who also happens to be a vegan? On the next Your Call, we talk with Howard Lyman, the fourth generation rancher who rose to fame after he and Oprah were sued by the cattle industry for libeling beef, a crime in Texas. They won the suit. Lyman is now on a crusade to change food safety policies and end our addiction to meat. What would a world of vegetarians look like? What would happen to livestock if we all became vegan? It's Your Call with Rose Aguilar and you.

Update: Howard Lyman is speaking tonight at the Marin Humane Society at 7:00 p.m.
171 Bel Marin Keys Blvd., Novato, CA

Guest:
Howard Lyman, fourth generation cattle farmer, now vegan activist
