The Invisible Vegan – Documentary

The Invisible Vegan is an independent documentary being released in 2017. The film explores complex issues surrounding the unhealthy dietary patterns in the African-American community, and health and wellness possibilities that are possible by offering plant-based diets and vegan lifestyle choices. The impact of heart disease and diabetes, leading causes of death in North America, have disproportionately affected the African-American population. The Invisible Vegan explores the historical reasons for dietary trends in the African-American community. This documentary stars Jasmine Leyva, Cedric the Entertainer, John Salley, Stic of Dead Prez and Tracye McQuirter.
