Are you a vegan interested in better understanding the philosophies
underpinning the different segments of the modern animal
rights/protection 'movement'? Interested in reading about and
discussing what the right and best sort(s) of advocacy are?<br>
<br>
If so, consider participating in a free discussion group on these very
topics. There will be seven meetings at which topics pertinent to above
questions will be discussed. (Note: The discussion group meetings are
run seminar style by two facilitators with philosophy and activism
backgrounds. The meetings are not lecture-based.) Six of the meetings
will involve assigned readings from three people who have significantly
influenced contemporary animal ethics and the different advocacy
strategies of the 'movement': Tom Regan, Peter Singer, and Gary
Francione.<br>
<br>
The meetings will occur on the following Sunday afternoons: 1/10, 1/24,
2/7, 2/21, 3/7, and 3/21 (seventh date to be determined by group). The
location will be determined based on participants' preferences but will
be conveniently located in the Boston area.<br>
<br>
Please contact me, Jason (<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:jasonketola@gmail.com">jasonketola@gmail.com</a>), if you're interested
in participating or with any questions.<br>
<br>
(If you are <b>not vegan</b> but are
interested in learning about and discussing animal ethics and veganism,
please also contact Jason right away about an introductory-level
discussion group to be held on Sunday, December 6th.)<br>
