CNE Farm Building Challenge

From August 17th – September 3rd, the CNE’s farm building will be showcasing animal exploitation and we are challenging you to do something about it!

Probably the worst case example is a mother pig in a gestation crate on display, as if confining an animal in a crate so small she cannot even turn around is normal and something to be shown off.

THE CHALLENGE

1. Choose a day to go with at least one other person (so one person can film)

2. Go into the farm building and use your voice to speak up against the exploitation of animals on display and have someone film it. Tell the truth that is hidden behind the narrative of those that normalize violence against others.

It can be a simple as saying: “This is wrong!!” loud enough for others around you to hear it, or maybe you want to say more, like: “Look at this mother pig! This is wrong!! If it were a dog in the crate, how many of you would think this is ok? She cannot even turn around. Why do you think it’s ok to treat animals this way?”; or attend a demo (milking) and ask a disruptive question “Is it true she had to be made pregnant to cause her to lactate like human moms? What happens to her baby?”; or stage a loud conversation between you and a friend in front of a baby cow “This baby cow wants his mom!”

3. Post your video with the hashtags #CNELies #RightToKnow; share your post to this page; and, tag friends to take up this challenge.

4. Upload your video to this shared drive https://goo.gl/3X9Mym where we will compile all the footage into one video that shows an animal rights movement coming together to speak up against injustice.

It’s so important to use our voices to speak up against injustice whenever we see it and we want to use this video to inspire everyone to do it. If this is your first time speaking out, and need some coaching or assistance, you can feel free to reach out to AR Singer for coaching.
