In this article, I show how meat eating is a forceful educational issue that warrants critical analysis. I argue that understanding, and especially watching, animals-becoming-meat\u2014that is, the processes through which animals are subjugated, confined, and killed in order to become edible food\u2014is necessary to become aware of the nonhuman suffering implicated in the exploitive practices of industrial animal agriculture and slaughtering. I locate the educative significance of animals-becoming-meat within a pedagogy of visual disturbance. Given the great extent that corporate agriculture goes to conceal the brutality behind its walls, I believe we must be unsettled with disturbing visuals of animals-becoming meat in order to begin to think critically. We ought to see, for ourselves, how whole animal bodies become edible \u201cpieces of meat.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Critical Education has just published its latest issue.
