Also, we dropped off $80+ at the Support Kellie and Victor…
Just a mad cool out….

it’s a sad day for animals everywhere when people think that militant veganism means running an occasionally abrasive blog

Today we co-ran a film screening with the Brock Animal Rights Collective that we entitled, “The Animal Liberation History Nerd Out.” We screened Breaking Free #1 and #2 as well as Jill’s Film. We wanted to direct people to links of these videos in case they couldn’t make it out today (below).
This was a lot of fun - but also extremely sad.
Lesson Learned.
Fuck booking shows.

Angels of Mercy? (1995, London, England)
In 1995 Channel 4’s Warcries news program aired Angels Of Mercy?, a 30 minute investigation into the Animal Liberation Front. The show focused primarily on Keith Mann, an ALF volunteer who was then serving England’s longest sentence for animal rights motivated arson. While most commercially funded news has a clear bias in favor of the status...

When we started the campaign, Marineland Animal Defense, in 2011 we were intent on creating a space for a dedicated campaign that would pre-empt repression and also leave room for incremental pressure. At the same time, we hoped that M.A.D’s structure would inspire similar focused campaigns in…

Stay tuned to the Niagara Animal Defense League page and a...

Two things:
1) Portland is too far away. I petition that we move it closer to Toronto.
2) looking for a new apartment is depressing and awful. Toronto is the land of shitty dirty smoky apartments unless you want to live without pets. I love my place (and hate it)… Why is moving the worst?!

This was the first time Executive Director Kevin Strooband has negotiated during this strike and it meant a group of thirty going into the lobby demanding it. We urge the animal advocacy community...
