Animals belong to themselves, not to us. They should not suffer in our
systems of food, science, entertainment and fashion. Instead, they
should live free of the tyranny we put upon them. But they cannot
claim this freedom alone. "Let Live" is a grassroots forum for people
who want to help. Through an open, respectful, and friendly
environment this conference will provide an opportunity for attendees
to learn skills and strategies to become better advocates for the
animals, no matter ones experience level in activism.
This conference is for first-timers, experienced activists, and
anybody in between who hopes to make a real difference for animals and
build a stronger, more effective community and animal liberation
movement. This conference is for anybody who wants to live and let live.
"Let Live" is taking place in Portland, Oregon, June 27th-29th, 2008.
It will be held this year on the campus of Portland State University. It is being organized by Vegans for Animal Advocacy, with support from No Compromise Magazine, Herbivore Magazine, and Food Fight Grocery. Much more info to come soon, please check the conference website (www.letliveconference.org) often and subscribe to the blog to stay up to date. Any questions, don't hesitate to get in touch. See you in June.
Thanks.
The "Let Live" Crew
