Our incisive exposés of live-animal us challenge the human-supremacist view that we are somehow markets around the world and here at home—and our demand for superior to other animals in a way that can justify disrespecting, them to be shut down—resounded in international headlines. abusing, exploiting, and slaughtering them. With the help of Mayim Bialik, Kim Basinger, and Joanna Krupa, With kind regards, I talked to over 40 million people about my latest book, Animalkind, in which I describe how gobsmackingly wonderful animals are and how we must therefore treat them as such. To that end, PETA drove a bulldozer into the very foundations of animal experimentation. Ingrid E.

Bev Kumari, augustus club member and peta business friend I have been a PETA supporter for many years and am proud to make sure this vital work happens today as a PETA Business Friend and in the future by being part of PETA’s Augustus Club. Carol Holub, vanguard society member PETA is one of the most effective nonprofit organizations in the world. I have been actively involved with them for over 30 years as a volunteer, philanthropist, and protester, and I have witnessed firsthand their relentless drive to reduce and eliminate animal suffering. This organization never wastes money, gives up, or is intimidated by any animal torturer. PETA will win in the end because they are ethical and right. The tide is turning—be on PETA’s side. Caryn Schall, vanguard society and augustus club member My puppy Micci changed my life. My love for her spilled over to all animals because I could see the face of Micci in each of them. I decided I would try to be the voice for all the moos, squawks, barks, oinks, quacks, and cock-a-doodle-doos out there. That’s when I discovered PETA. I have been a vocal and a financial supporter of PETA ever since. Micci would be proud. Marko Zonta and Marco Verrelli, vanguard society and augustus club members We were aware of PETA but didn’t realize how much incredible work is being done until about eight years ago when we became vegan. Our eyes were opened to animal abuse and environmental and health issues that are largely hidden. People have to begin to realize that some of our lifestyle choices inflict horrible suffering on animals—and we firmly believe that PETA is the best organization to expose those abuses and work with organizations to create meaningful and lasting change for the animals. “Test Subjects” poster: © Alex Lockwood 6 Animals Are Not Ours to Experiment On PETA has halted more animal experiments than all report—“The Research Modernization Deal”—to all muscular dystrophy experiments on dogs.

  • The Sexual Politics of Meat by Carol J. Adams
    THE SEXUAL POLITICS OF MEAT A FEMINISTVEGETARIAN CRITICAL THEORY Praise for The Sexual Politics of Meat and Carol J. Adams “A clearheaded scholar joins the ideas of two movements—vegetari- anism and feminism—and turns them into a single coherent and moral theory. Her argument is rational and persuasive. New ground—whole acres of it—is broken by Adams.” —Colman McCarthy, Washington Post Book World “Th e Sexual Politics of Meat examines the historical, gender, race, and class implications of meat culture, and makes the links between the prac tice of butchering/eating animals and the maintenance of male domi nance. Read this powerful new book and you may well become a vegetarian.” —Ms. “Adams’s work will almost surely become a ‘bible’ for feminist and pro gressive animal rights activists. Depiction of animal exploita- tion as one manifestation of a brutal patriarchal culture has been explored in two [of her] books, Th e Sexual Politics of Meat and Neither Man nor Beast: Feminism and the Defense of Animals. Adams argues that factory farming is part of a whole culture of oppression and insti- tutionalized violence. Th e treatment of animals as objects is parallel to and associated with patriarchal society’s objectifi cation of women, blacks, and other minorities in order to routinely exploit them. Adams excels in constructing unexpected juxtapositions by using the language of one kind of relationship to illuminate another. Employing poetic rather than rhetorical techniques, Adams makes powerful connec- tions that encourage readers to draw their own conclusions.” —Choice “A dynamic contribution toward creating a feminist/animal rights theory.” —Animals’ Agenda “A cohesive, passionate case linking meat-eating to the oppression of animals and women .

  • Bovine Benefactories: an Examination of the Role of Religion in Cow Sanctuaries Across the United States
    BOVINE BENEFACTORIES: AN EXAMINATION OF THE ROLE OF RELIGION IN COW SANCTUARIES ACROSS THE UNITED STATES _______________________________________________________________ A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board _______________________________________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY ________________________________________________________________ by Thomas Hellmuth Berendt August, 2018 Examing Committee Members: Sydney White, Advisory Chair, TU Department of Religion Terry Rey, TU Department of Religion Laura Levitt, TU Department of Religion Tom Waidzunas, External Member, TU Deparment of Sociology ABSTRACT This study examines the growing phenomenon to protect the bovine in the United States and will question to what extent religion plays a role in the formation of bovine sanctuaries. My research has unearthed that there are approximately 454 animal sanctuaries in the United States, of which 146 are dedicated to farm animals. However, of this 166 only 4 are dedicated to pigs, while 17 are specifically dedicated to the bovine. Furthermore, another 50, though not specifically dedicated to cows, do use the cow as the main symbol for their logo. Therefore the bovine is seemingly more represented and protected than any other farm animal in sanctuaries across the United States. The question is why the bovine, and how much has religion played a role in elevating this particular animal above all others. Furthermore, what constitutes a sanctuary? Does
