“The Veg Monologues”: A Stage Show With a Bit of Humor, a Heap of Conscience

We can all relate to being in a circle of comrades when someone begins to tell their “how I went vegan story,” and, soon enough, everyone takes their turn. (As a lesbian, let me tell you, this is not incredibly dissimilar from a group of LGBT folks sharing their “coming out” stories. At some point, at some party, or some gathering, …

Got Chick Pics? Museum Seeks Chicken Portraits and Stories for Upcoming Exhibit

If you’re reading this, I’m going to guess that there’s at least an 85% chance that you already know that. To be an animal rights activist is to be an activist for chickens’ rights.

Critical Animal Studies Seeking to “Break the Silence”

by Mariann Sullivan February 13, 2013
written by Mariann Sullivan

Animals are definitely a hot topic in the academic world. But as we’ve noted in the past, that isn’t always necessarily a good thing. Many students of animal studies are merely commenting on animals, or our relationship with them, and not thinking about how that relationship should change. While one part of me wants to believe that attention is better than …
