“Meat and beef and all these burgers are pleasure food, and we’d rather destroy our environment for our pleasure, and it’s foolish of us.” RZA, the leader of the hip-hop collective Wu-Tang Clan, discussed why he went vegan, animal welfare and more. https://t.co/j8Q5yBnKW4

We’re saddened to hear about the passing of Animal rights trailblazer Steven (Steve) M. Wise. Steve was president of the Animal Legal Defense Fund from 1985-1995. In 1995, Steve then founded the Nonhuman Rights Project.

elephants have no business at the zoo where they can't exhibit a single natural instinct. Shame on you @LAZoo

[NBC Los Angeles @NBCLA]

Shaunzi was unable to stand in her exhibit Tuesday night, according to a statement from the LA Zoo. Veterinarians worked all night to try to get her back on her feet but to no avail, leading to the zoo’s decision to sedate and euthanize her.

@nonbiasedinfo @Phil_Lewis_ You’re wonderfully passionate!

[Michelle Cho @lavegan]

@nonbiasedinfo @Phil_Lewis_ I’m sorry you feel that way. Elsie and her neighbors have been in this fight to create change for almost longer than I’ve been an adult. Seeing and hearing what they’ve been through - that’s proof enough for me. I really hope you watch so we can have a dope discussion ‘cause (2)

@AntipodeanBob @MalaikaJabali @Essence @smellofmoneydoc Or otherwise being completely legal due to the state officials who are also financially motivated indirectly involved in mass hog farming.

[Michelle Cho @lavegan]

@AntipodeanBob @MalaikaJabali @Essence @smellofmoneydoc It absolutely does; not only by big ag, but other polluters, too. The common denominator in all of these cases is that it impacts underserved communities. Speaking of the film, we focused on eastern NC due to it being the largest host to hog farms with every law environmental (2)

[Michelle Cho @lavegan]

@MalaikaJabali @Essence @smellofmoneydoc We couldn’t be more grateful. The attention you’ve given the film is galvanizing the new generation to be ready, armed with knowledge, and will carry on Elsie’s legacy long after we’re gone. ♥️

@nonbiasedinfo @Phil_Lewis_ I will always do my best to be a voice for vulnerable populations. It’s the only thing that keeps me living, truthfully. I don’t compare skin, creed, gender, age, etc., I will always stick up for the underdog. Period.

[Michelle Cho @lavegan]

@nonbiasedinfo @Phil_Lewis_ History’s a great start! Have you seen the film? If not or if so I’d love to chat more about it to see where you’re coming from because it’s unprecedented how exploited our Black and brown neighbors are by industries with all the power in the world. Start with Wendell Murphy…

[Michelle Cho @lavegan]

@nonbiasedinfo @Phil_Lewis_ You have a partial point. There are environmental disasters all over this country. Remember the derailed train in Ohio carrying all those pollutants? EPA said no problem. A week later they’re like GTFO of here. Also a lower than middle class of people, primarily white, rural folk
