Nathan Braun

Nathan Braun

Nathan Braun is a Canadian author, independent scholar, and activist in the vegetarian movement. He was the founder, along with Stephen H. Webb, Professor of Religion at Wabash College, of the Christian Vegetarian Association in 1999 and was one of the "initial leaders" of the Society of Ethical and Religious Vegetarians, co-founded with Richard H. Schwartz in 2002.

Controversy

In April 2005, Braun was ejected and banned from the Grassroots Animal Rights Conference, based on allegations of sexual assault by a female teenaged conference attendee. Organizers explained their decisions in a statement.

Pattrice Jones, a conference speaker and member of the committee formed to respond to the incident, wrote an article discussing the matter for the Mabon 2005 (Vol. 25 # 6) issue of the Earth First! Journal [cite web |url=http://www.earthfirstjournal.org/article.php?id=247 |title="Violation & Liberation: Grassroots Animal Rights Activists Take on Sexual Assault" |accessdate=2007-03-28 |date= September 1, 2005 |publisher=Earth First!
