Anthony Marr:
Turn Compassion into Action
Saturday, December 18, 4 - 6pm
Old Wives Tales Restaurant
A talk for budding and veteran activists alike. In this lecture,
Anthony
shares his experience gained from his successes and failures in a decade
of dedicated and relentless activism (see www.HOPE-CARE.org). He'll
talk about how to become a 24/7-full-time activist, use direct, indirect,
overt and covert actions, conquer fears, take calculated risks, lead
project teams, launch expeditions, conduct speaking tours, handle
confrontations, endure ridicule, engage media, captivate children, forge
coalitions, act abroad, and raise action. All in all, the lecture
will cover the dos and don'ts of effective campaigning.
Anthony Marr is a world-known wildlife preservationist, a vegan animal
rights activist, a dynamic campaigner and inspirational public speaker,
and a highly respected scientific philosopher and author. He has dedicated
his life to action on behalf of animals and this planet, and to further
civilizing our species, and has been extraordinarily successful in these
regards.
