Along the parade route, TheirTurn spoke to onlookers to get their reactions:
The Animal Liberation March was one of several mass demonstrations organized by the grassroots animal rights group Direct Action Everywhere (DxE) as part of its annual Animal Liberation Conference in Berkeley, California.
Self-destructive animal agriculture should be phased out. We should make changes and create a sustainable plant-based food system through the 2023 Farm Bill. All vegetarians, vegans, animal rights activists, and eco-worriers should unite to voice out and demand the change.
Sylvia;
Yeah I saw those. Did you eat the pig that was being roasted too?
You’re right. The hamburgers and hot dogs were delicious. We bought Beyond Meat hamburgers (I wish we had bought the stock too!), and we bought a few different brands of plant-based hot dogs, all of which are lip and rectum-free!
The march was terrific…so were the hotdogs and hamburgers they served after.
Donny,
Thank you for capturing this event and for asking me for comments…I could have never imagined eating meals without meat until I tried it 2.5 years ago. Now, I realize that the “food industry” cares nothing about our health…it is all about the $$$ to them. Keep sharing your messages.
