  • Disaggregating the Scare from the Greens
    DISAGGREGATING THE SCARE FROM THE GREENS Lee Hall*† INTRODUCTION When the Vermont Law Review graciously asked me to contribute to this Symposium focusing on the tension between national security and fundamental values, specifically for a segment on ecological and animal- related activism as “the threat of unpopular ideas,” it seemed apt to ask a basic question about the title: Why should we come to think of reverence for life or serious concern for the Earth that sustains us as “unpopular ideas”? What we really appear to be saying is that the methods used, condoned, or promoted by certain people are unpopular. So before we proceed further, intimidation should be disaggregated from respect for the environment and its living inhabitants. Two recent and high-profile law-enforcement initiatives have viewed environmental and animal-advocacy groups as threats in the United States. These initiatives are the Stop Huntingdon Animal Cruelty (SHAC) prosecution and Operation Backfire. The former prosecution targeted SHAC—a campaign to close one animal-testing firm—and referred also to the underground Animal Liberation Front (ALF).1 The latter prosecution *.

Inside this issue Prisoner Features - News - Letters from Prisoners - Liberation Pictures - How to help the prisoners and more...

Because the main role of the SG is supporting the prisoners, the newsletter can often come over a little negative, dealing as it does with issues like arrests, court cases, prison conditions etc. But we should bear in mind that prison support is not just important for those particular prisoners, it is vital to the success of the whole animal liberation movement. To paraphrase several earlier writers involved in social struggles, any movement that does not support its political internees is a movement destined to fail. At the recent AR2009 International Animal Rights Gathering in Oslo, one of the three days was devoted to the theme of repression of the movement, and how to overcome it. We heard about how repression, which used to be mostly restricted to the UK and USA, was now spreading to other countries, such as Holland and Austria, and we heard of disturbing links between our government and theirs on the subject of how to tackle animal rights “extremists”.

  • 9 Contentious Traditions, Eco-Political Discourse and Identity
    GENTLE GIANTS, BARBARIC BEASTS AND WHALE WARRIORS: Contentious Traditions, Eco-Political Discourse and Identity Politics Rob van Ginkel Department of Sociology and Anthropology, University of Amsterdam [email protected] Abstract Traditions are usually enmeshed in cultural politics, especially if they are highly controversial and heavily contested. In this article, I will firstly go into the tradition of the Faroe Islands’ grindadráp, a bloody pilot whale drive, which in Faroese eyes constitutes an inalienable part of their culture. It is strongly opposed by environmentalists and a wider audience. Secondly, I will examine the attempts of Makah Indians to revitalize their tradition of whale hunting in an effort to reinforce their identity. In this case, too, there was massive opposition, but the tribe nonetheless obtained permission to go whaling again. The eco-political discourse on Faroese and Makah whale hunting harbors a strong component of evaluating the merits and demerits of Faroese and Makah culture and the genuineness and legitimateness of the whaling traditions. The present article describes and analyses the debate, in particular as it relates to the issues of heritage and its contested authenticity. It argues that authenticity is not an ontological category but can only be produced in practice. Introduction In the commonsensical perception, ‘tradition’ often rings a bell of repetitive continuity. The term derives from the Latin traditio: to hand over. It is commonly thought of as an inherited pattern of thought or action, a specific practice of long standing, that which is transmitted from generation to generation. Departing from a similar conception, the pioneers of folklore and anthropology often conflated tradition and culture.

  • Il Modello Shac the Militant Forces Against
    Il “modello SHAC” è applicabile anche ad altre lotte e a contesti diversi da quello della liberazione animale? In quali condizioni? Quali sono i suoi THE MILITANT FORCES vantaggi e difetti? Oggi che una delle campagne di pressione più importanti, a livello glo- AGAINST HLS (MFAH) bale, del movimento di liberazione animale si è conclusa (è dell’estate 2014 il comunicato uffi ciale che pone fi ne alla campagna), è tempo di rifl ettere sugli aspetti negativi e positivi di questo modello di attivismo e militanza, che è quasi riuscito a mettere in ginocchio una multinazionale della vivisezione, ma infi ne ha subìto i colpi di una durissima repressione, che lo stesso movimento non era preparato per aff rontare. Un modello ba- sato sulla diversità di tattiche mirate a uno stesso obiettivo, la chiusura di una multinazionale o di un luogo di tortura, attraverso l’attacco ai suoi clienti, fornitori, azionisti e a tutte le altre aziende che ne rendono pos- sibile il business. Quel che è fuori da ogni dubbio è che questa campagna non avrebbe potuto ottenere le vittorie che ha ottenuto se non fosse stata supportata dalle centinaia di azioni dirette (sabotaggi, liberazioni, in- cendi, minacce e imbrattamenti) realizzate nel corso degli ultimi 10 anni dall’ALF, dalle Militant Forces Against HLS e da altri gruppi o individui determinati a passare all’azione.

  • Vegan Outreach: Fight Climate Change with Diet Change
    FIGHT CLIMATE CHANGE WITH DIET CHANGE CLIMATE CHANGE & YOU What’s Really Worth Our Time? Can One Person Even Make a Difference? As the clock keeps ticking on climate change, with no action from the federal government in sight, these questions are more important than ever. Luckily, there is one area where our individual choices make a concrete difference— food. Keep reading to see why making a small change in our diet is one of the most powerful ways we can help everything from climate change, to species extinction, to air and water pollution. There’s one sector of the food system that has an outsized environmental impact— animal agriculture. Most of the problem stems from the sheer number of animals we raise and kill for meat, eggs, and milk every year in the United States. Do you know how many that is? Brace yourself. 9 BILLION There are over 9 billion land animals bred and slaughtered in the U.S. annually for food. That means there are more farmed animals raised every year in the U.S. than there are people on the entire PLANET. Raising all these animals produces over 200 pounds of meat per person in the U.S. every year, but it also causes a lot of problems. Most of the problems come from the fact that all of those animals eat, drink, burp, and poop. Growing Food For Animals, Not People When we think of farmers growing crops, we imagine food for people. But 75% of all agricultural land around the world is used for livestock production.

Firstly the apologies for the long delay in getting this newsletter together. The main reason for this delay is that we have had to take into account the changing legal situation which under the infl uence of this reactionary government has created a minefi eld for anyone thinking of challenging the status quo or even reporting on those who take a stand.

  • Eat! Act!: a Sea Shepherd Chefs Vegan Cookbook Ebook Free
    THINK! EAT! ACT!: A SEA SHEPHERD CHEFS VEGAN COOKBOOK PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Raffaella Tolicetti | 192 pages | 24 Jul 2014 | Microcosm Publishing | 9781621066668 | English | Bloomington, IN, United States Think! Eat! Act!: A Sea Shepherd Chef's Vegan Recipes by Raffaella Tolicetti Neither the whalers nor us are people living in an isolated self-sufficient society relying on animals for their own survival. We can live without cruelty that is unnecessary; we have evolved as a species to a point where we cannot talk about eating animals as part of our survival. We eat animals to satisfy our desires and because we can dominate them easily with our modern technology, affirming our supremacy and our will to reign over everyone and everything. This is true from human to human too; but we have slowly built laws to forbid slavery, gender and ethnic discrimination, or violence against each other. It still happens and probably always will, but the fact that we have created institutions to protect us from each other is a sign of our internal battle, to elevate ourselves to a higher morale where our murder instincts are tempered by reason. Why shouldn't we apply that same logic where animals are concerned? Cruelty is the act of making another being suffer for no rational reason self defense, survival instinct, etc. Within that definition, animals suffer as much as humans; and the meat, fishing, and dairy industries are responsible for the biggest slaughters that have ever happened on Earth. It doesn't matter whether we are more intelligent than pigs and cows and tigers and ants which we are not if you measure intelligence by the relationship you have to your ecosystem.

Writing in the NZ Herald, she says, "The fact is there is inherent cruelty in the dairy industry, which cannot be changed through prosecuting individuals". The dairy industry, she claims, does not want "the cheese-eating worldwide public to know about its disposal of unwanted bobby calves". She also says that more than two million calves are surplus to the dairy industry's requirements every year and will be killed shortly after birth. They are essentially waste products of the dairy industry, and are treated as such, she writes.
