# Event Details - **Event Name**: "The Pig Who Sang to the Moon" Vegan Book Club Meetup! - **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 21 Oct, 2026 at 06:00 pm – Wed, 21 Oct, 2026 at 08:00 pm (-05:00) - **Event Description**: πŸ·πŸ“šπŸŒ™ Join us for the second meeting of The Uncaged Page, St. Louis' only vegan book club, as we discuss "The Pig Who Sang to the Moon," a groundbreaking exploration of the emotional world of farm animals by Jeffrey Moussaieff Masson! To celebrate World Day for Farmed Animals (Oct. 2) and Project Animal Freedom's eighth birthday (Oct. 19), we return our attention to the foundation of our activism, namely, the immeasurable value of our nonhuman neighbors and the incredible inner lives they live. Drawing on five years of firsthand observation on farms and at sanctuaries, Masson (author of the bestseller "When Elephants Weep") makes the case that the animals we call "livestock" think, feel, and suffer, and that an animal is happy only when free to live according to their own nature. Weaving together science, history, folklore, and personal encounters, this eye-opening book devotes a chapter to each of the animals we farm the most, revealing: 🐷 pigs who dream, know their names, and even save human lives πŸ” chickens who make friends and roost together in the treetops at night πŸ‘ sheep who balance their own diets and goats who face down leopards πŸ„ mother cows who mourn their stolen calves πŸ¦† and ducks and geese who love their mates and their young Set against the brutal reality awaiting the vast majority of these animals on today's farms, their stories remind us why we do what we do. As The Uncaged Page vegan book club, we seek to liberate our hearts and minds from the prejudices that bind us, to liberate our nonhuman friends from captivity and exploitation, and to liberate our world from injustice, one page at a time. The Uncaged Page Book Club is for you if you: πŸ’š enjoy learning more about veganism, animal rights, and social justice 🧠 desire stimulating conversations about thought-provoking issues connected to animals ✊ want to help animals by educating yourself about their plights, effective activism, and much more A project of Project Animal Freedom, this initiative takes place at Adina's Vegan Cuisine on the third Wednesday of the month every month.
