The UK animal rights organization Animal Rising points out that humanity has a very toxic and broken relationship with animals and needs to change it. The number one way to do that is to stop abusing and exploiting animals for food, clothing, entertainment and experimentation and start treating all animals with respect and kindness. So, this fiercely determined group takes to the streets, rescues suffering animals and disrupts events where animals are forced to perform, like horse and dog races. The result? Animal Rising members are getting arrested in droves, even though the actions of these animal activists, while confrontational, are completely nonviolent! But, they're also making headlines as the mainstream media is essentially forced to cover issues that it usually ignores. It's not fair that people have to risk arrest or even their lives in order for the media to report on this crucial issue that impacts animals but also the climate, nature and humans.
