Vegan Action was published in Blackburn by Vegan Action to provide “information on the continuing struggle against animal exploitation, torture and butchery”. Articles include an account of being a vegetarian in prison (not easy in 1969), campaigning against vivisection, a critique of non-vegetarian peace activists and some recipes encouraging vegetarians to become vegan.

The Commonweal Collection includes three copies of Vegan Action published in 1969 and 1970. Other materials in the Collection about the Animal Liberation Freedom Struggle (Fq) can be found on the catalogue here.

A full list of over 1,700 magazines, newsletters, bulletins and journals that are in the Collection can be found here.
