Is animal rights a feminist issue? If we deny animals rights because they lack the abilities humans possess, are we being ableist? Does supporting animal liberation detract from human liberation struggles? Or could it help human rights causes?
The New York City chapter of National Lawyers Guild (NLG) Animal Rights Activism Committee is hosting this discussion with long-time activists, writers, and advocates Timothy Pachirat, pattrice jones, Christopher-Sebastian McJetters, and Sunaura Taylor. Our panelists will explore how speciesism and non-human animal exploitation intersect with other forms of oppression.
This Chicago based viewing is hosted by the Chicago Chapter of NLG’s Animal Rights Activism Committee and co-sponsored by The John Marshall National Lawyers Guild, Student Animal Legal Defense Fund at the John Marshall Law School
