À propos de cet e-book


Not
every activist starts out with the goal of changing the world. Some have
their life shaped by chance, quirks of timing, and strange coincidences. And
an unwillingness—or simple inability—to fully ignore the horrors perpetrated
on animals today. Since Matt Ball learned of factory farms well over a
quarter century ago, his journey has been anything but linear. Instead, his
evolution has been fraught with denial, regression, conflicts, and failures.
Matt’s evolution shows that not every activist is a confident extrovert with
all the answers. His struggles—often publicly played out in written form, in
newsletters, mailings, blogs—have influenced, directly and indirectly,
countless individuals. Even though accidental and reluctant, the hard-learned
but ultimately pragmatic lessons Matt shares in this book are changing the
world. Having learned from years of mistakes, his insights can help others be
effective and, hopefully, happier as well. As Peter Singer notes, “A new
future is in sight, one that Matt, Vegan Outreach, and other advocates are
hard at work creating.” This book can help each of us be a part of bringing
about this new future.
