On January 20, the Indian village of Thulasendrapuram will celebrate the inauguration of Kamala Harris, the first Black and South Asian woman elected as Vice President of the United States, with vegan treats. This week, every family in the village—the birthplace of Harris’ grandfather—received a basket of vegan biryani, plant-based meat from Indian startup GoodDot, oat milk from Goodmylk, vegan sweets, and more courtesy of the animal-rights group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA).
“PETA India is delighted to help Thulasendrapuram celebrate the milestone of Vice President-elect Harris’ inauguration with vegan goodies, especially since she has sponsored and supported so much legislation in the US against cruelty to animals,” PETA India spokesperson Radhika Suryavanshi said. “Vegan food saves animals’ lives, helps preserve the planet, and safeguards human health, so everyone wins.”
