- More than half of all African American women are obese, according to the CDC. A plant-based diet can help, according to “The Ageless Vegan” Tracye McQuirter.
Tracye McQuirter joins Chuck Carroll The Weight Loss Champion, to discuss her efforts to inspire the community to get healthy through the 10,000 Black Vegan Women campaign, which helps women explore a plant-based diet: www.byanygreen....
The pair also discusses social injustices related to food in underserved communities and why there can be significant disparities in life expectancy even among people who live only blocks apart.

Loved this episode. As a black male I have been vegan since 1991 and have never looked back. At 49 people still think I am in my 30's.
That's what's up.
👍 My only regret about making the switch, is that I waited too long. I'm proud of you Q! Inspiration man 💪.
congrats
I turned 43 this week and people ask for ID when I’m not even buying anything LOL...I just tell them it’s plants
wish i started that long back ago. awesome.
Bravo Tracye for your inspiration and drive to see a community of people thrive outside the patriarchy!! None of what you said surprises me, in fact, it just makes me disgusted by the underhanded quiet ways junk food has crept into neighborhoods by people who are in it for a buck. Also, Chuck, what you said about the impoverished Native Americans in Arizona is so disheartening. Again, junk creeps in to taunt and tempt innocent people. I support ALL peoples to come to veganism and fight the good fight! ♥️🌱♥️👍🏻👍🏻
Me too !!
Thank you so much for your starting this plant-based movement to a vital community. Big, bold, and necessary indeed.
Indeed!
She’s doing a wonderful thing.😍☺️I’m getting her book. Looks great. I just shared with my friends. I went Vegan after watching “The Game Changers” & “EarthLink” will be a year next month of February. Feel better than ever. Thanks 🙏🏾 for sharing. 😌
Hey how have your vegan journey been so far??? …could you give me a few tips on going vegan im a few days in lol but im ready for a new lifestyle…
This is an absolutely necessary and perfect discussion. Right on time.
As a white woman, I have been a vegan since my late teens. As a result, I have rarely been ill and have been able to maintain a healthy weight. Plus, the animals are happy to NOT be eaten!
Keep up the good work, Tracye! And thank you Chuck bringing us different aspects of the vegan lifestyle.
I am so happy to see vegans! I love that you are focusing here on the need to bring healthy eating to the African American community. Many black communities have struggled with access to healthy foods over the recent years. The problem I have is veganism is about the animals. Humans being vegan is not about human struggles it is about the plight of animals being used as commodities and enslaved by man for his taste pleasures. We need to stop using vegan as interchangeable word for plant based. If you are talking about plant based health I love it! But veganism is and will always be 100% about animals not man, racism, or our issues. We are to be ally’s to the animals. Thank you for sharing your plant based philosophy and I wish health and good fortune to all black women!
Love this episode! Tracye McQuirter is awesome and I enjoyed learning about her campaign! :)
Love her and love this episode! Tracye, thank you for doing this work and spreading this message.
Vegan black women right up my alley yeah !! It's awesome baby with a capital A
*Super* impressive how much you packed into less than 20 minutes. The show's always great - this one knocks it out!!
Yay Tracye. Just read your book "By Any Greens Necessary." For the ignorant people in the comments, get some black friends of different demographics and you will understand why this is needed. Ultimately, if you can't keep up, this conversation is NOT for you. To the intelligent people in the comments, yes Tracye is doing great things by bringing knowledge and healing to US BLACK PEOPLE! Unbeknownst to (HaWhite) people there is a true lack of desire to be vegan or at least more invested in whole foods because of it being white washed by the bourgeoisie white community that does NOT cook flavorful food. So Black people who love seasoning with herbs and spices have to literally relearn healthy living as we acculturated to sick living because that was white so it must have been right. Black people started out vegan and vegetarian mostly and that's why our health is more in jeopardy. So we have to go back to our roots and let go of this unhealthy picket fence mentality.
Education is key . And Tracye’s giving it in DOSES!
I've had several friends in my life who have been Black. I am not, I'm descended from Norwegian stock. I love cooking with my Black friends, loads of fun. When people compare where the health of Black people is the best in Africa, they eat maize-legume diets, no dairy, very little or no meat and they have great health.
Here is the thing we all need to face, is that if you eat this way, it makes you disease resistant and happy as who can be happy being sick? You can also look to India. Both Africa and India, we think of places of disease but not all are succumbing to disease. The ones who are not are vegans. They survive.
If this is not a timely subject, what is. We all have much to learn from various cultures and I think when we get out of quarantine, everyone's going to be sharing "their best methods of staying well".
We all have a story to tell but we have two ears and one mouth. Should listen more than we talk.
Love you! Love the man bun, love your voice, love your face, love your topics, love how invested you are in the people that you interview and love this particular guest!
When you mention being "targeted," it is the power of advertisement propoganda.
And don't forget the strong influence of peer pressure and family "culture."
Thank you for introducing me to Tracey! I hope more platforms will have her on, she needs MORE exposure! 💚
She is brilliant, generous, and kind. I am so glad I purchased her book.
I am joing the vegan community. Even before I saw this video I decided to start my journey on October 1st 2022. My body is worth it.
I didn’t realize this channel exists! Just subbed.
Tracye’s the bomb and beautiful. Thank you for the interview. 🌱🌏❤️
My hubby and I have been whole food plant based for over three years. I’m so excited and grateful to know there are so many African Americans who are part of this movement.🌱💚
Tracye is inspiring me to make a positive change. There's nothing wrong with including cultural issues as a reason to go vegan. Thanks for having her on, Chuck :)
I love this topic. It's nice to have this type of community support!!

Great interview!
This is so encouraging! It makes me feel less alone. Thanks so much.🍓🥦
She’s awesome! Greetings from Brazil! Our colonization process has some differences, that reflects in our relationship with food. Most men who came here from Europe, came alone. They obviously didnt cook, so the cooking was done mostly by black woman. Most of our national food has a massive influence of african and native american cuisines (and are very very healthy). Although as a society we’re still racist, when it comes to food the most respect and common cooks are black woman (working in schools, hospitals, small and medium restaurants). They always know what is healthy and good for you. Junk food is normally very expensive, but in the past years they are getting more competitive prices (mc donalds, bk, Subway, etc), growing around the country. I think a visit to Brazil, especially Bahia, Minas e Rio is a good experience for who wants to know more about african ways of cooking and healthy food. Hugs for all and sorry for my broken english
To the white vegans upset about the acknowledgement of black women in the context of issues specific to black women, would you have the same concerns if the concept was Native American women, or how about just women?
Black people currently have higher rates of covid and Navajo Natives have just surpassed New York in terms of death... Will they be allowed to acknowledge their differences in order to save lives this time around or will you All Lives Matter those issues, too?
Why do you get bothered by the introduction of black to the title women and not by the title women? Black protestors were tased for Ferguson peace marches, and camera men were arrested for filming police brutality there, but at the same time in history, the "Women's" (non-black specific, and white majority expected) March was left alone. We couldn't discuss difference then. And the fragility of the ego of white (and potentially other listeners) unfortunately exists in the vegan community today, complaining about difference here.
The specific issues with regard to health, hormones, and social problems are relevant to finding solutions for "women," correct?
And black women (USA) also have a set of constructs, pressures, and needs that are specific to the experience of being black women in addition to or affecting the other concerns. Our rape rates, death by homicide rates and health rates are different... Higher than white women and not all of this is caused by poverty. Hospital treatment is harsher on average and it affects not just bw health but black infant mortality, which is again, higher than white women.
Yet, that doesn't upset you the same way seeng an animal murdered does... Because you can acknowledge that humans are hurting the animal, even though you are a human, too. Logically, you don't feel the need to erase the differences there or eliminate and challenge experience to make every human look good...
But acknowledgement of racism and its affects (in housing, banking, judicial, policing, social, school) is more difficult. I understand many of you are heavily uneducated about it, but it's obvious you can't bothered to learn either, as if that reflects on your ability to compare yourself and as if you personally would prefer to see yourself as an overcomer in comparison to others, rather than let them heal.
Every 19 hours a black woman dies. Yet, that doesnt upset you. A white person killing a white woman is a killer and a victim in the news. And a black person killing a black woman is black on black crime in the news. When's the last time you complained about that instead of participated in it?
Murder victims and kidnapping victims are less likely to get news coverage to solve the crimes when the victim is a black female. Where is your outrage?
Where's your concern for humans when their suffering is larger than that of other humans? You don't solve any of those issues by pretending a difference doesn't exist. The existence is often different, the treatment in society is often different, the families we are raised in are often different, and the barriers we face are often different... You can be equal and different. If you are so concerned with protection of your ego that you would knowingly block an open conversation that would allow black women to challenge death rates by focusing on the truth of their existence, acknowledging differences, and focusing on how to repair the disadvantages where they exist, then you are proving right the many new black vegans who turn away from the current normative (white perspective) vegan community. They leave believing through experiences like these that vegans care more about animals than they do about activism for the well being of black bodies. For you, that is obviously true.
If large amounts of African Americans are dying due to a cause and you are bothered about how you might look by the truths that have to be faced to solve it, you can't call yourself a person looking to solve disparity and create positive change for the planet, including fellow humans.
I remember the change in veganism with the late 2000s. Most vegans of the freedom movement past were protective of all challenged beings, including humans and did not fight the existence of discussions about race that could save lives. They publically celebrated them. In my approximate 10 plus years of being a black female vegan, I haven't turned back it's progress. Have you?
But I've seen many biases... I've seen the ways that black celebs promoting veganism and white celebs promoting it are treated in the comments of vegan hubs. And I've seen an increase in times where the introduction of "black" next to woman suddenly shuts down dialogue that was allowed in the context of inspiring others with the same and some different issues. If this results in the reaction of more safe spaces for dialogue and more "self-labeling" so that a specific group can acknowledge their issues, similar to "men's" channels and "male" oriented forums, don't be surprised. If there's a different result, there's obviously a different set of circumstances shaping the different result.
And if you couldn't be bothered enough by disparities in human deaths to acknowledge others' experiences, than these women shouldn't stop what they're solving to be bothered by how you feel about them discussing their solutions.
As for the terminology she uses, or may use. racism: not just an injustice due to a specific prejudicial act. It describes a collective of social constructs designed to or inadvertently negatively impacting a "race" community. And it comes from a white supremacist patriarchy perspective which has existed in this country since the "founding fathers" labeled black people 3/5 this a human.
Congressman that lead this country are or have been openly patriarchal and openly racist (aka white supremacists). Our justice appointment confirmations have had racist and patriarchal backgrounds. Their decisions have affects on black female lives.
One Trump appointee just eliminated a bill for the funding of HBCUs created to solve the disparities in admissions. He gave more funding to renovate a parking lot, though. Trump, our current leader, has also targeted black civil rights activists, meaning if any group gathering to discuss bw issues forms and is filled with black people, he can spy on it with the help of US intelligence agecy, and target those he disapproves of .
If that's not a good context for black female life in a white supremacist patriarchy, there isn't one .
Patriarchy plays an additional role, specific in the lives of black communities that have been more preoccupied with fighting racism, so much so that standing up for women and girls, especially when it comes to accomplished black men, is a struggle or not done; if the word patriarchy bothers you, it's unfortunate, but challenging the paradigms that allow predators to abuse publically with more support for protecting male legacy than protecting underage girls would also be more important. That is one of many instances where acknowledgement of difference will aid black women and girls.
I believe I listed a few others above. But you can also go back to singling out the animals, so long as you're honest about the fact that you chose your ego over allowing recuperation for other life forms.
Well said
You're my new friend in my head. ❤💯
This was awesome. Thank you both!
Super great interview. Thank you for sharing.
I started out with meatless Monday for a while , now 3 weeks in my full Vegan lifestyle and loving it and also jointed the 10,000 Black Vegan Women movement
Thank you Tracye does great work, and it is nice to see her.
Loved this episode so much!
This is what I’m trying to do for my son and I like her and her mother
I love Tracye!! I’m definitely enjoying this initiative and I am ready to start!! 👏🏽
I never consider myself to be a black Vegan. I’m just Vegan 🌱.
Awe........!!!!
YAS
or lordy. get over it.
Because you are a wise person, unlike her
@@arlete1277 Why's that?
Yes, loved this video! And hell yes to Tracye with her response when the interviewer stated he's confused how he's contributing to our white supremacist society. She's right-- that's a whole other discussion! Anti-racism isn't easy and there are tons of books written to learn about white fragility.
Love this interview ❤❤❤
Thank you for this encouraging video. I have been vegetarian on and off for over 10 years now but recently became vegan in July of 2020. I hope to stick with it for good because I know that my health will greatly improve and that it will help to save animals and the environment. I hope that more of us will join the movement.
Great episode. We as Women have to do better and take care of ourselves. #TracyeMcQuirter you told the whole truth!!!
Loved this video sis 💛💛💛
Hi Tracye McQuirter, Chuck Carroll and Everyone! Thank you for your very interesting interview. So according to the International Vegetarian Union, we can see that pioneers of the vegan movement are from all origins, the Black community, Native Americans and their original plant-based diet, Asians like Ancient China, 6th century Japan, Europeans. Our ancestors, the early humans were vegans which explains why people from all communities have somehow remembered our ancient roots...
I'm just meeting her today. I definitely understand what she talking about. I get it. I'm not vegan but understand the food deserts in my community in Minnesota. Yes, the health problems we face in AA community.
1.Weight Control 2.Health Awareness 3.Plant based nutrition I live in Houston, Texas African American females I know two but more to go Vegan Signed a African male❤❤
Thanks you Tracye for your work !
Thanks
It's a shame, that you can go to your doctor, and the doctor can't even tell you the right thing to do, diabetes, heart disease, and many other disease should never be there in the first place. Even the government don't tell you the truth, it's all about money.
You contribute by buying the products re: fast greasy foods. These communities should get together and shop away from those stores . Make it a group effort , in numbers you find strength.
Not vegan yet but this was such a great conversation. He really tried to understand her point of view in a very respectful way.
I wish you and your guest had discussed differences in higher risk behaviors (smoking, drug use, alcohol use, junk food, etc) between higher income and lower income communities.
I’m curious - does this beautiful lady take B12? I’m a part of the movement and always hear that vegans have to take B12. Thx
Awesome Tracye! 👌
Great video I like this video.
Truth
Been vegan over 20 years
Thank you for listening to people’s truth 🙏💜🐾🌱🌎👣
I've been vegetarian for almost 2 years now but 98% of my diet is vegan/plantbased. Trying to kick that 2% away
👏🏼 GREAT idea
She doesn't get enough attention imo
black vegan.....black plant based physician....working on teaching about a plant based diet for all....
She looks healthy and attractive.
OMG 💜💜💜💜🥰🥰🥰🥰 INspiring because medical experimentation is alive & well. we must take our health back. help ourselves 💥💥💥💥💥
I love this. I heard Mike Tyson and Lenny Kravitze are vegan.
It's sad that the human race have to put up divides over race.
love this woman so much, the interviewer seemed a little bit entilted tho lol
What a Lovely Beautiful Lady
Iesus said unto them, Behold a new law I give unto you, which is not new but old. Even as Moses gave the Ten Commandments to Israel after the flesh, so also I give unto you the Twelve for the Kingdom of Israel after the Spirit.
8. For who are the Israel of God ? Even they of every nation and tribe who work righteousness, love mercy and keep my commandments, these are the true Israel of God. And standing upon his feet, Jesus spake, saying:
9. Hear O Israel, JOVA, thy God is One; many are My seers, and My prophets. In Me all live and move, and have subsistence.
10. Ye shall not take away the life of any creature for your pleasure, nor for your profit. nor yet torment it.
11. Ye shall not steal the goods of any, nor gather lands and riches to yourselves, beyond your need or use.
12. Ye shall not eat the flesh, nor drink the blood of any slaughtered creature, nor yet any thing which bringeth disorder to your health or senses.
13. Ye shall not make impure marriages, where love and health are not, nor yet corrupt yourselves, or any creature made pure by the Holy.
14. Ye shall not bear false witness against any, nor wilfully deceive any by a lie to hurt them.
15. Ye shall not do unto others, as ye would not that others should do unto you.
16. Ye shall worship One Eternal, the Father-Mother in Heaven, of Whom are all things, and reverence the holy Name.
17. Ye shall revere your fathers and your mothers on earth, whose care is for you, and all the Teachers of Righteousness.
18. Ye shall cherish and protect the weak, and those who are oppressed, and all creatures that suffer wrong.
19. Ye shall work with your hands the things that are good and seemly; so shalt ye eat the fruits Of the earth, and live long in the land.
20. Ye shall purify yourselves daily and rest the Seventh Day from labour, keeping holy the Sabbaths and the Festival of your God.
21. Ye shall do unto others as ye would that others should do unto you.
22. And when the disciples heard these words, they smote upon their breasts, saying: Wherein we have offended. O God forgive us: and may thy wisdom, love and truth within us incline our hearts to love and keep this Holy Law.
23. And Jesus said unto them, My yoke is equal and my burden light, if ye will to bear it, to you it will be easy. Lay no other burden on those that enter into the kingdom, but only these necessary things.
24. This is the new Law unto the Israel of God, and the Law is within, for it is the Law of Love, and it is not new but old. Take heed that ye add nothing to this law, neither take anything from it. Verily I say unto you, they who believe and obey this law shall be saved, and they who know and obey it not, shall be lost.
25. But as in Adam all die so in Christ shall all be made alive. And the disobedient shall be purged through many fires; and they who persist shall descend and shall perish eternally.
But there shall arise after you, men of perverse minds who shall through ignorance or through craft, suppress many things which I have spoken unto you, and lay to me things which I never taught, sowing tares among the good wheat which I have given you to sow in the world.
Then shall the truth of God endure the contradiction of sinners, for thus it hath been, and thus it will be. But the time cometh when the things which they have hidden shall be revealed and made known, and the truth shall make free those which were bound.

Keep wokeness away from veganism *please*.
What is wokeness ?
Well, this is what I found: Woke is a slang term that is easing into the mainstream from some varieties of a dialect called African American Vernacular English (sometimes called AAVE).
But I’m still not sure what u mean.......I guess what I’m trying to say is I **love** all ethnicities. Yeah, we’re all
O N E ♥️
the irony of this comment is just too ironic. lol. a vegan admonishing wokeness. omg.
Not only that, she's racist, sexist, and bigoted!
Please let them eat grass. I'll eat the cow. More for us.
Love physician committee, but this was a bad choice putting her on your show.
I agree. For a university educated person, she seems to have been indoctrinated into some really racist, sexist, and bigoted ideologies.
Who cares about your color????
Really, are we still here??
Yes. We are still in this place. The video answers your questions
I thought the title of her campaign, "10,000 Black Vegan Women," had a strange ring to it, why specifically black women? I was going along with this, I wanted to see where she was going with it, what her angle was... okay... 1. she sees herself as a different race from other humans. 2. she believes "the food system, like every other system that you can name, is based on white supremacist capitalist patriarchy and the people who are most exploited by that are people of colour, particularly black people, particularly black women"
1. all humans are of the same race, the human race. Racism is when someone believes that their ethnic group is differently evolved from other ethnic groups, usually leaning towards the idea that their ethnic group is more evolved and others lesser evolved, like how some English believed that the Irish were lesser evolved and more akin to cavemen thus being less intelligent. Believing that there are different races of humans who have evolved differently from each other is the racism, but science has shown this to be complete bullshit. If you take her "people of colour" from the middle of Africa and move them all to somewhere up north, it will only take a few generations till their skin has become significantly lighter in colour, this has been proven and this has nothing to do with them evolving in only a few generations -- it happens with all humans, the reverse happens when taking some pale skinned people from the north and moving them to the middle of Africa. Proven.
2. There is no white supremacist capitalist patriarchy -- total bullshit. Many many people with light skin live in poverty and do not eat nor have access to wholesome nutritious foods. Also, men do not lead woman around on a leash, beating them when they do not obey. Absurd. The people who first influenced her to make a change in her life were MEN, and now she throwing it back in their face, she sites Dick Gregory as influencing her, but at the same time Dick Gregory is part of the patriarchy and not allowed to be part of her bigoted 10,000 Black Women campaign. Dick was against bigotry and racism, and here she is promoting it, and promoting misandry too. What about black men? What about all of the other people out there in the world of all of the different ethnicities? Okay, if she wants to focus on 'black' women and a specific community of people who ostracize themselves into one little category, I don't really care, but I'm quite certain that a 'black' person living in, say, Vancouver BC, where their friends and community are of dozens of different ethnicities and where they do not see themselves as 'black' but just as another regular everyday person, is going to have quite a different experience than a 'black' person who lives in some mono-culture ghetto where everyone around them looks like them and they're taught that 'white' people are the devil etc.
Being divisive is NOT the way to work towards harmony, peace, acceptance, diversity, etc. and is certainly not a very good way to promote veganism either.
You either didn't listen or you've worked overtime to miss the point.
Omg@@basbleupeaunoire my thoughts EXACTLY. Literally debunked all of the "points" that were questioned above eloquently & with CLEAR understanding imo. Also, that is NOT the definition of racism but o.k.
Bart ruined Barnhard on his latest video, lmao.
really? So ad hominem attacks and no data are ruining him? The man is wearing a shirt that says MEAT on it, think his video has a bias as he claims Dr. Neal Barnard does? These so-called debunking character assassination videos verge on defamation and should be sued for as such.
youre a troll with a troll account. nothing of value to add so shut your piehole.
