During my research, I have found an inspiring and very interesting article wrote by Tracey Narayani Glover which talks about, why she is an animal rights activist. why-im-an-animal-lover
* 'For years I felt paralyzed as I looked out at the world with all of its sufferings.'
* 'The same cannot be said of animals, especially not farmed animals, whose abuse is accepted by the same moral community that rejects the abuse of humans.'
* 'Nonhuman animals are conscious, intelligent, emotional beings.'
* 'I became an animal rights advocate not because I don't care about humanity, but because so few people care about the nonhuman animals.'
* 'The degree and scale of suffering involved in animal agriculture, in particular, are beyond anything humanity has ever endured.'
* 'ANimals rights advocated don't just advocate for the rights of chimps or cows or fish. They advocate for a more compassionate world for all beings.'
Being an animal rights activists is not about limiting our compassion to nonhumans, it is about extending our circle of compassion to include all being who can suffer.'
