Our 2025 Person of the Year is Jane Goodall. The renowned primate expert, vegan, & animal advocate devoted her life to reshaping how humans perceive other animals and inspired so many to care for others. Honor her life by being vegan, just like Jane 🤍

Animal rights doesn't mean cows should vote. It means if it's wrong to torture and exploit your dog, it's also wrong to commodify and exploit chickens, cows, fish, and pigs. It's about moral consistency and rejecting speciesism. Pic: main hallway of MIT

We’re heartbroken by the passing of Loretta Swit—Emmy-winning star of M*A*S*H and a tireless champion for animals of all species. She was a devoted vegan, a fierce advocate for spay & neuter, & a voice for animals in shelters, labs, & in nature. Her work will live on forever 🤍

It is not fair that a small number of careless people can disturb the peace of thousands of peaceful residents. When is Miami-Dade County and the City of Miami going to enforce the law and stop those who explode these illegal and terrifying fireworks?

In addition to these exploding fireworks being illegal, they cause great stress to our veterans who have served in war, disrupt sleep of the elderly, children, and workers, lead to significant trauma to pets and pets running away, and death to wildlife.

Section 14-67 of the Miami-Dade law prohibits the use (without a permit) of any fireworks that propel themselves through the air, detonate, or explode. Penalties for violating this law include a fine of $1000 and up to 1 year in jail.
