The Abolition Of Animal Exploitation!
Professor Gary L. Francione sheds light on the core of the matter. "Veganism means that you no longer eat or otherwise consume animal products.
Veganism is not merely a matter of diet; it is a moral and political commitment to abolition on the individual level and extends not only to matters of food, but to clothing, other products, and other personal actions and choices.
Veganism is the one thing that we can all do today - right now - to help animals. It does not require an expensive campaign, the involvement of a large organization, legislation, or anything other than our recognition that if 'animal rights' means anything, it means that we cannot justify killing and eating animals."

Speaking from her heart, Elizabeth Collins broadcasts radio podcasts to bring the abolitionist message down under to New Zealand. Her vegan diet based message, however, is really meant for all of us.
You won't find any animal welfare "humanely raised this" or "caged free that" in these podcasts. Ms. Collins delivers purely vegan education, and her message of 'individual responsibility' is right on target. She creates a context for all of us to strive for, and she deserves a major tip-of-the-hat Thank You from all of us.

Fishing Hurts: Commercial fishing is cruelty to animals on an almost unimaginable scale. Fish look so unlike humans that many people don't realize that they feel pain, just as we do and lead complex intellectual lives that rival those of dogs and some other mammals. The way that these animals are treated by the commercial fishing industry should make animal lovers everywhere give up their taste for fish flesh for good.
