TEACHING KINDNESS, REWRITING NORMS

When Children Are Taught Kindness
We secure a safer world.
And for every living being,
We ensure a brighter future.

At Daisyfields Animal Sanctuary, children meet cows, chickens, and other animals we’re taught to forget. But here, they remember. They notice. They kneel. They listen.

This is what sanctuary looks like.
This is what unlearning sounds like.
This is what hope feels like - soft, curious, and brave.

Teaching kindness and respect to other animals isn’t just about them. It’s about us.
It’s about the world we’re building, one respectful moment at a time.

Tom Regan ~ The Sword of Justice, The Torch of Reason

Animal rights philosopher, and "one of fifty visionaries who are changing the world" (Utne Reader), Professor Tom Regan delivered this inspirational keynote address to a rally in Los Angeles in April 1988. Tom's speech, titled "The Sword of Justice, The Torch of Reason", is still considered by many to be "The greatest animal rights speech ever given".

Twenty six years after giving this speech, Professor Regan sat down with Gary Comstock to speak about the events leading up to this speech, and if he had any regrets. That interview can be found here:

Tom Regan was the first theorist to ‘get ‘rights’ across the species barrier." Therefore, he can be credited with breaching that hitherto solid defensive ethical barrier based exclusively on species membership
