🖤Anti-Animal-Use Advocacy Event🖤
Join us speaking up for the animals this Saturday, between 12pm and 3pm, on the corner of the Pioneer Place Mall; SW 5th Ave and SW Morrison St, Portland, OR 97204.
We are Anti-Animal-Use—a collective of abolitionist activists committed to ending the exploitation of all sentient beings.
We believe that sentience—not species—grants the right to bodily autonomy, freedom, and protection from human caused exploitation. Our activism is rooted in the simple truth that using someone against their will is oppression—no matter how it is disguised.
We engage the public in conversations that ask:
Are you living in alignment with your moral principles?
If you’re against oppression and exploitation, why participate in systems that violates animals inherent rights and depends on their use for taste, fashion, entertainment, or cosmetics?
When we consider the perspective of the victim, the violence becomes undeniable.
We advocate for veganism as the moral baseline—the only ethical way to live without demanding the use, abuse, or killing of others.
We oppose all forms of exploitation, oppression, and arbitrary discrimination—human or nonhuman. We strive to honor the dignity of all sentient beings, to hold ourselves accountable, to learn from our mistakes, and to do better—together.
We will have some TV screens playing dominion and try to have honest conversations with the public.

Let's stand together and respect the dignity of sentient life.
Animals lose their lives when we stay silent. They deserve immediate liberation from all human-caused exploitation. Veganism is the moral baseline. The least we can do is stop participating in the injustice.
We are stronger with you.
We welcome all; even if you are late or or can't stay for the whole event.
Thank you
