Next, the theme of politicisation will be raised, examining the link between people’s exposure to animal rights/veganism through punk, and the adoption of vegan consump- tion habits or involvement in animal rights activism. Thirdly, the 1 It is recognised that the term ‘rights’ often sits at odds with anarchist en- gagements with animal advocacy/activism, which favour terms such as ‘animal liberation.’ ‘Animal rights’ is employed here as a catch-all term, and to reflect its common usage in the activist and punk movements themselves. 2 W.

  • An Estimate of the Number of Animals Used for Scientific Purposes
    Research Article Alternatives to Laboratory Animals 1–18 ª The Author(s) 2020 An Estimate of the Number of Animals Article reuse guidelines: sagepub.com/journals-permissions Used for Scientific Purposes Worldwide DOI: 10.1177/0261192919899853 in 2015 journals.sagepub.com/home/atl Katy Taylor and Laura Rego Alvarez Abstract Few attempts have been made to estimate the global use of animals in experiments, since our own estimated figure of 115.2 million animals for the year 2005. Here, we provide an update for the year 2015. Data from 37 countries that publish national statistics were standardised against the definitions of ‘animals’ and ‘procedures’ used in the European Union (EU) Directive 2010/63/EU. We also applied a prediction model, based on publication rates, to estimate animal use in a further 142 countries. This yielded an overall estimate of global animal use in scientific procedures of 79.9 million animals, a 36.9% increase on the equivalent estimated figure for 2005, of 58.3 million animals. We further extrapolated this estimate to obtain a more comprehensive final global figure for the number of animals used for scientific purposes in 2015, of 192.1 million. This figure included animals killed for their tissues, normal and genetically modified (GM) animals without a harmful genetic mutation that are used to maintain GM strains and animals bred for laboratory use but not used. Since the 2005 study, there has been no evident increase in the number of countries publishing data on the numbers of animals used in experiments. Without regular, accurate statistics, the impact of efforts to replace, reduce and refine animal experiments cannot be effectively monitored.

  • Derogatory Discourses of Veganism and the Reproduction of Speciesism in UK 1 National Newspapers Bjos 1348 134..152
    The British Journal of Sociology 2011 Volume 62 Issue 1 Vegaphobia: derogatory discourses of veganism and the reproduction of speciesism in UK 1 national newspapers bjos_1348 134..152 Matthew Cole and Karen Morgan Abstract This paper critically examines discourses of veganism in UK national newspapers in 2007. In setting parameters for what can and cannot easily be discussed, domi- nant discourses also help frame understanding. Discourses relating to veganism are therefore presented as contravening commonsense, because they fall outside readily understood meat-eating discourses. Newspapers tend to discredit veganism through ridicule, or as being difficult or impossible to maintain in practice. Vegans are variously stereotyped as ascetics, faddists, sentimentalists, or in some cases, hostile extremists. The overall effect is of a derogatory portrayal of vegans and veganism that we interpret as ‘vegaphobia’. We interpret derogatory discourses of veganism in UK national newspapers as evidence of the cultural reproduction of speciesism, through which veganism is dissociated from its connection with debates concerning nonhuman animals’ rights or liberation. This is problematic in three, interrelated, respects. First, it empirically misrepresents the experience of veganism, and thereby marginalizes vegans. Second, it perpetuates a moral injury to omnivorous readers who are not presented with the opportunity to understand veganism and the challenge to speciesism that it contains. Third, and most seri- ously, it obscures and thereby reproduces

  • STATEMENT of NONVIOLENCE (Page 1)
    THE FOOD NOT BOMBS MOVEMENT STATEMENT OF NONVIOLENCE All Food Not Bombs volunteers work for nonviolent social change and this is our statement. The name Food Not Bombs states our most fundamental principle: That our society needs things that give life not things that give death. Our society is dominated by violence and the threat of violence. This affects us both in our daily lives through the constant threat of crime and police abuse and less directly but just as seriously through the threat of total annihilation from nuclear war. The authority and power of our government are predicated on the threat and use of violence. They continue to spend more time and resources developing, using, and threatening to use weapons of massive human and planetary destruction than on nurturing and celebrating life. Food Not Bombs has chosen to take a stand against violence. As a group of individuals we are committed to non-violent social change through the celebration and nurturing of life by giving out free vegetarian food. Poverty is violence. By spending money on bombs instead of addressing human needs, our government perpetuates and exacerbates the violence of poverty in our society. One of the most direct physical expressions of the violence of poverty is hunger. Millions of Americans go hungry every day and childhood malnutrition contributes heavily to infant mortality rates, which are higher in parts of the U.S. than in some Third World nations. Inadequate or non-existent health care, police brutality, and class discrimination are also forms of systemic violence against poor people.

  • Compassion Over Killing Hom
    Compassion Over Killing Home Page http://web.archive.org/web/20010212020030/www.cok-online.org/abolit... Compassion Over Killing COK Home The Abolitionist Calender Literature Merchandise By Mike Markarian What You Can Do When I first became involved in the animal rights movement, about ten years ago, I was active with both grassroots and national groups. Our Join Us animal rights group in Buffalo, N.Y., held numerous grassroots protests at local fur stores and rodeos. And when PETA called and asked us to Links help with a demo, or when the Fund for Animals called and asked us to help with a hunt sabotage, we were more than happy to work with them. It seemed to be a very cooperative and symbiotic relationship —grassroots groups needed the national groups to provide well-researched information, literature, ready-made posters, and other materials, and the national groups needed local activists for support at local events. Years later, I work for a national group, I have been called a and I am still very active with grassroots “sell-out” and a groups. But it seems that the gap between “compromiser” the two parts of our movement is simply because I work widening. Among the grassroots movement, there seems to be a growing for an organization stigma against national groups. I have that is willing to pay been called a “sell-out” and a me to help animals “compromiser” simply because I work full-time....I can for an organization that is willing to pay certainly handle the me to help animals full-time (rather than name-calling--after having to deliver pizzas or tend bar to fund my activism).

  • The Total Liberation Action Research Team: Re-Membering
    THE TOTAL LIBERATION ACTION RESEARCH TEAM: RE-MEMBERING PRACTICES OF HOLISTIC, CREATIVE, AND COMPASSIONATE JUSTICE By Mara June Pfeffer A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in Sustainable Communities Northern Arizona University May 2014 Approved: Janine Schipper, Ph.D., Chair Sean Parson, Ph. D. Kim Curtis, Ph.D. ABSTRACT THE TOTAL LIBERATION ACTION RESEARCH TEAM: RE-MEMBERING PRACTICES OF HOLISTIC, CREATIVE, AND COMPASSIONATE JUSTICE MARA JUNE PFEFFER In this thesis, I argue that industrial society must radically re-evaluate and re- member its relationships with the more than human world if it wishes to pursue justice and sustainability, pursuits which are crucial to the continued existence of life on earth. I argue that those involved in justice and sustainability movements must recognize the critical intersections of animal liberation with justice for the earth and humans; and that those involved in movements for animals must find ways to practice groundless solidarity with all those resisting corporatism, patriarchy, racism, colonialism, sexism, classism, ablism, transphobia, homophobia, and ecocide. I argue that we must start here and now by coming together to form our own communities; cultivating spaces to ask critical questions; and practicing more creative, compassionate, and holistic activisms that call for the liberation of earth and all animals—both humans and other than. By cofounding and participating in the development of a Total Liberation Action Research Team at Northern Arizona University, I present evidence that the frameworks of total liberation and artistic resistance offer alternatives to dominant, mechanistic, dismembering, single- issue, one-size-fits-all organizing models and inspire more holistic, creative, and compassionate activisms that are necessary to cultivating truly just communities.
