Meat-Out
Keynote speaker, Tom Regan and his latest animal rights title, “Empty Cages”
Tom Regan is a pioneer of the Animal Rights movement and author or editor of major books in this emerging field of philosophy and social progress. An author of more than twenty books, his other titles include “The Case for Animal Rights,” “Defending Animal Rights” and “Animal Rights, Human Wrongs.” Regan is an emeritus professor of philosophy at North Carolina State University and, with his wife, Nancy, cofounder of the Culture and Animals Foundation.
Author Jeffrey Masson called Empty Cages, “the single best introduction to animal rights ever written.” J
im Motavilli, editor, E: The Environmental Magazine, said, “In a world where exploitation of other species has become mechanized, the animals need a spokesman. That voice belongs to Tom Regan, whose “Empty Cages” is a clearly written, eloquent argument in favor of compassion for the beings with whom we share the planet.”
Regan will speak at Meat-Out, March 18, 5 pm, Church of the Messiah, Route 9, Rhinebeck. More details in our Calendar of Events.
