FUR FREE FRIDAY IN WESTCHESTER

FUR FREE FRIDAY IS TRADITIONALLY HELD ALL OVER THE WORLD THE DAY AFTER THANKSGIVING, WITH DEMONSTRATIONS AND PUBLIC OUTREACH PROVIDING EDUCATION ABOUT WHERE REAL FUR CLOTHING COMES FROM:

WHERE:  OUTSIDE MACY'S AT THE CORNER OF MAIN ST AND COURT IN WHITE PLAINS (this is a great location as Westchester areas go, lots of foot traffic and high visibility, which is not easy to get in Westchester.  We are able to give out hundreds of leaflets at this location).

WHEN:   FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 25

TIME:   1 - 3 PM

CARPOOLING AVAILABLE IN WESTCHESTER

(If I may repeat the same poignant quote that was posted by Santos of NYCANIMALRIGHTS.COM):

Fur is back in a big way.  There is a portion of a poem by Thomas Hardy that if the animals we care so much about could write would fit a possible reason.

You did not come,
And marching Time drew on, and wore me numb.
Yet less for loss of your dear presence there
Than that I thus found lacking in your make
That high compassion which can overbear
Reluctance for pure loving kindness' sake
Grieved I, when, as the hope-hour stroked its sum,
You did not come.
