53 years ago today.
One week after my 5th birthday.
You were gone.
Assassinated for answering a call to conscience, for speaking truth to power, for being a drum major for justice who sought to rid the world of racism, militarism and poverty.
I miss you. Still. Always.
This calf was found at a Saleyard in Queensland. He was visibly unwell, unable to keep his head up. Two women tried to save him, but were outbid by a butcher.
His story doesn't have a happy ending. This is the reality for most animals in the agricultural industry. Go Vegan.
