MISSION STATEMENT

V-EGANISM is independent in thoughts and actions, only choosing what is right and just for animals, humans, and the environment. V-EGANISM however does have a mission statement which is how the founder of veganism, Donald Watson, originally coined the word's definition. It was a perfect definition then and it still is a perfect definition now. So the following paragraph is V-EGANISM's official Mission Statement:


"V-EGANISM educates people and helps people and animals regarding the political and social justice cause, Veganism, which is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude--as far as is possible and practical--all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing, cosmetics, household products, entertainment, service or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of humans, animals, and the environment."

How Would You Choose?

Image result for animal collage


Last night, I went to see the 1988 film, Gorillas in the Mist; it is part of an eco film festival they have at the movie theatre several times a year.

I have seen Gorillas in the Mist many times before; I own it on DVD, but I went to the theatre to see it on the big screen, to support the cause, and to hear an animal rights lawyer speak at the end of the film.

The AR lawyer is animal welfare, meaning although he may be for all animal rights, he focuses on specific animals to actively fight for. Most animal welfarists choose to specifically fight for mammals--especially large mammals, and he is no exception. His particular fight right now is for elephants.

I'm for all types of animal rights people working to end animal suffering and exploitation, but with animal welfarists, my question to them is:

How do you choose which animal to actively fight for?

For example, it would be like for children's rights; instead of fighting for the rights of all children, you just fight for the rights of girls, or children of a certain age, or fight for the rights of children with green eyes....This sounds absurd.

How  would you choose?

This is why I'm an animal rights activist who actively fights for all animals; I would never want to pick a certain animal to fight for--I wouldn't know how to choose which animal to fight for anyway. I tend to promote animal rights by way of veganism: simply educating and encouraging people to not eat or use animal products in any way, as well as not supporting the exploitation of animals, like not going to places where animals are used for entertainment.

In this way, I can effectively help ALL animals.

V-EGANISM's Official Mission Statement




I needed to create a detailed, official, mission statement for V-EGANISM. This following statement will also be located at the top of this web blog permanently.


There are animal welfare vegans and animal abolition vegans. V-EGANISM is neither. Just as there are positive things and negative things about conservatives and liberals, there are positive things and negative things about welfarists and abolitionists. V-EGANISM avoids all 4 "political parties", and remains as an independent in thoughts and actions, only choosing what is right and just for animals, humans, and the environment. V-EGANISM however does have a mission statement which is how the founder of veganism, Donald Watson, originally coined the word's definition. It was a perfect definition then and it still is a perfect definition now! So the following paragraph is V-EGANISM's official Mission Statement--and nothing more, nothing less, we are simply called, "Vegans", with no additives:

"V-EGANISM educates people and helps people and animals regarding the political and social justice cause, Veganism, which is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude--as far as is possible and practicable--all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing, cosmetics, household products, entertainment, services or any other purposes; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of humans, animals, and the environment."

Violence, Nudity, Profanity, ANIMALS..that is BOLD NATIVE




Here's a bold, thought-provoking animal film to watch over the weekend--or any day.

Synopsis

"Charlie Cranehill, an animal liberator wanted by the United States government for domestic terrorism, emerges from the underground to coordinate a nationwide action as his estranged CEO father tries to find him before the FBI does. The film simultaneously follows a young woman who works for an animal welfare organization fighting within the system to establish more humane treatment of farmed animals. Bringing their critically-acclaimed documentary style to a fiction narrative, Gather Films weaves a timely story about those who risk their freedom for the lives of others."

WARNING: This film contains graphic violence, nudity and profanity.

This "movie film" about animal rights is the most thorough, thought-provoking animal film I have ever seen and I've seen them all in my years of being an animal rights person since 1982. Bold Native covers all different types of activists in all lines of work, interests, with different ways of showing their passion for animals. Character Sonja is my favorite.



The acting is well done, and the cinematography is terrific. You'll laugh, cry, get angry, raise your fists...show all kinds of emotion as you watch Bold Native. Even though it's a "movie" it tells the facts. It's a very moving, thought-provoking film, that needs to be shown in theatres again. I'd love to watch this in a theatre and take in people's reactions.

Bold Native needs to be redistributed to theatres again because the message is still fresh today and needs to be told over again to the general public.
 

I loved the film from beginning to end.
