poetry with a pre-poetry ramble about "understanding" opression. :)

This is a poem form the "institute for critical animal studies" journal, i found it particularly moving. this to my mind is the best example, i have come across, of the coming together two potentially very moving things. the kind of writing that is poetry and the oppression subjugation and harm that many non-human animals live every day.  for me this poem does not just talk about the disconnect between people that…

Let Them Eat Meat: an ex-vegan blog

An ex-vegan has created a website called Let Them Eat Meat, where he writes about veganism, poking holes in vegan logic, theory, philosophy.

The blog's author does a cogent, serious, fair, and thorough job exploring veganism (though at times he does not restrain himself from having some fun at veganism's expense, but this doesn't take away from the actual discussion), and as an ex-vegan he knows arguments in favor of veganism very well.  Any vegan proponent who supports open…

Did You Know That Your Vacation Can Change the World? (Even with an umbrella drink in your hand!)

If you’re like me while on vacation, you turn off the smartphone, avoid watching all that dreary news coverage or reading depressing newspapers, and instead grab a juicy paperback novel (Grisham? Kellerman?) to enjoy under a palapa near the gorgeous blue of Caribbean waters. Work? Forget about it. Guilt? What’s that? Saving the environment? Maybe next trip.

What would you…

Empowering the Individual: Personal, Stealth, and Online Advocacy

New blog post by ARRNT; a vegan abolitionist group in North Texas!  Taken from here:

 

https://arrnt.wordpress.com/

 

Hello there ARRNT and fellow supporters!  I’d like to take a moment and speak with you about what you can do, as individuals, to benefit other animals today!  Activist groups should be encouraged because of the camraderie and cooperation they bring, but it is, of course, always still important to realize…

I Am Animal ~ Tim Gier

In the eyes of the animal, looking back at me, I see the stark vitality, the raw reality. Confronted with this immediacy of innocence, this essence of being, I recoil, and frightened by the reflection of my own insignificance, I strike out against her, struggling to save my self through separation and subjugation.

 

I am lost,…

The VegNews Animal Testing Legislation Controversy: A Response to the Response

Whether you’re a vegan, vegetarian, animal-rights activist, or combination thereof, you got there because you asked questions. You questioned yourself about why you loved some animals and ate others, and you questioned others about why humankind uses animals for clothing, for medical testing, or for entertainment. Questioning the status quo is exactly why many of us are the people we are today—and we should never let that quality go, especially questioning those who would hold a place of…

VegNews Magazine Endorses Animal Testing Legislation?

Many of us are concerned with the animal testing status of our cosmetics and skin care products. Websites like Leaping Bunny have devoted their entire existence to ensuring the public has easy access to cosmetic companies that no longer test their products at any stage of development.  How would you feel if this were no longer an option?  There is currently legislation that could eliminate your choice for… Continue
