Read the moving and powerful essay about Happy, by Steven Wise @NonhumanRights , in #ThirtyTimesaMinute https://t.co/r58RARGNbm

[Nonhuman Rights Project @NonhumanRights]

News of the hearing date comes as a tenth brief has been submitted in support of Happy’s right to liberty, signed by a group of 27 law professors from across the US and Canada and drafted by @MatthewGLiebman @usflaw and @KM_Bradshaw @ASUCollegeOfLaw. https://t.co/gnRastXTn2

We have a hearing date! On May 18, 2022, New York's highest court will hear arguments in our elephant client Happy’s case, which @TheAtlantic has called “the most important animal-rights case of the 21st century.” #FreeHappy https://t.co/gnRastXTn2

We appreciate @rickygervais so much for all his help in the past and now for helping us let people know that zoos cause brain damage to their captive elephants. Read more and withhold your money from zoos.

@jeffrsebo They can request that their teachers NOT take them on field trips to a zoo, instead a nature center or animal hospital or true sanctuary.

@MatthijsBettman @FlakPhoto Mine was deleted too. Can’t get it back. And FB. Maybe for the best anyway.

One of the best stories we’ve seen so far on our fight to #FreeHappy—published today in @theatlantic and written by historian Jill Lepore.

"Can an elephant be a person? No case like this has ever reached so high a court, anywhere in the English-speaking world." Jill Lepore looks at the most important animal-rights case of the 21st century: https://t.co/idwm6W2wqR

[Virginia Quarterly Review @VQR]

The title of @ColleenPlumb’s photography project, “Thirty Times a Minute,” refers to how often elephants sway while in captivity, keeping time with their pulses: https://t.co/fi415x5zv9

A war against earth.
When it’s done there’ll be
no place

Thank you @AloiArtTalk ✨

[The Learned Pig @The_Learned_Pig]

Thrilled to share this incredible essay from Mandy-Suzanne Wong's new collection LISTEN, WE ALL BLEED

A mighty mix criticism, activist call-to-arms/legs & intense, tremoring evocation of the work of artist Kathryn Eddy.

By the end of its first week in the world LISTEN, WE ALL BLEED squeezed onto @spdbooks' bestseller list. That crazy b word in actual proximity to the title of a book I made. More unlikely than a tree-climbing hermit crab. Thank you, @NewRiversPress !

Elephants are endangered. Pass it on.

[National Geographic History @NatGeoHistory]

Corporations, bodies of water, animals, and even deities around the world have been recognized as persons. But in the U.S., no legal designation exists for nonhuman animals. https://t.co/eMESsGClps

Good to see Emma Marris presenting "The Case Against Zoos" in the New York Times - a case also strongly made by Dale Jamieson in his article in my 1985 collection In Defence of Animals: https://t.co/184D9syAXQ
