Direct Action Everywhere

Direct Action Everywhere's motto is: Until Every Animal Is Free. Say the organizers, "We will achieve revolutionary social and political change for animals in one generation. We reject the speciesism that enables the mass torture and killing of nonhuman animals and the blatant disregard for their home - our planet - as well as the unjust and oppressive institutions and ideologies that harm all animals including humans."
