We are Blogging the Change today!
Bloggers across the world are sharing causes important to animals today to encourage you to make informed choices and take action.
Monday is Martin Luther King Jr. Day
Animal Equality is following in Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s footsteps, keeping up the fight for equality, though, for animals.
Each and every person can make a difference. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. is testimony enough to that.
Animal Equality advocates for animals by conducting undercover investigations and promoting them through media outlets. They also conduct grassroots outreach including demonstrations, protests, leafleting, and video showings. Related to their undercover investigations, they also conduct some legal and corporate outreach efforts.
I love that they investigate to keep animals treated humanely. I do eat meat, but I try to make informed decisions and thanks to organizations like Animal Equality, I can learn the good, the bad, and the ugly about the organizations that produce the meat I buy.
Go to animalequality.net to see how you can get involved, take action, or otherwise support equal rights for animals.

Oh, what a dream that is! This sure seems like a very active, involved, dedicated organization — exactly what we need to represent and speak up for our animal friends. I love their work! Thank you for shining a light on this wonderful group.
And thank you for blogging the change for animals!

Be the Change for Animals
Hear, hear. The treatment of animals for food is horrendous, but the change started with the amazing autistic woman who introduced the playing of music and a genial atmosphere for abbatoirs. Also a quick kill so that animals did not suffer.
I’m with Ellen Pitch–I try to be more vegetarian. All it takes is an imagination, but…Animals are here for food originally. Not as pets. Not just to have in the yard on in the field. It would be very, very difficult to simply let food animals die out. There do not seem to be humane solutions yet, but given a tomato and a steak, I would choose the tomato any day.

Excellent post. I really need to try to be a vegetarian again and keep trying.
I could do it, but my hubby, not at all. At least we can learn where our meat comes from and make good choices and changes
Wow, thanks for sharing this with all of us.
Being educated about where my our comes from, any food, is so important. It’s been an eye opener for me in the past few years and I’m still making changes
We eat meat as well but have just changed where we get it. We are buying bulk from a local Nor California family owned company that personally selects where their meat comes from based on quality of animal care and their fish is all line caught, sustainable. This org sounds like a good resource.
That’s fantastic! What is the name of the company? I may be interested in buying in bulk from a good source also
Thanks for sharing this great organization! I am familiar with them and also really appreciate that they are being the animal treatment watchdogs our government fails to be. I am glad your post and BtC4A gives me the opportunity to share with others.
Thanks for sharing. We should all care about where our food comes from and I hope more and more people will take the time to educate themselves and demand change.
What great work this organization does!
Pretty cool that they go undercover to expose abuse!
