Inside Anonymous for the Voiceless
4m 6s
Anonymous for the Voiceless co-founder Paul Bashir joins UnchainedTV during a Cube of Truth demonstration in Los Angeles to discuss the evolution of the international animal rights organization and the strategy behind its distinctive street activism.
Bashir explains how AV has developed a structured training system for activists, from those standing inside the Cube displaying footage to the outreach teams engaging members of the public in conversations about veganism and animal exploitation.
He also shares the philosophy behind those conversations: keep the message simple, identify people who are genuinely open to questioning their assumptions, and focus activist energy where it can have the greatest impact.
Founded in 2016, Anonymous for the Voiceless has brought its Cube of Truth demonstrations to communities around the world. Bashir reflects on the organization’s growth, the changing effectiveness of its outreach, and its ultimate goal: a vegan world in which exposing the realities of animal agriculture is no longer necessary.
