Protest & Memorial for Cats Tortured & Killed in Online Videos

Join animal advocates around the world for a protest and memorial to mourn for cats tortured and killed for horrific online videos. The disturbing content typically originates in China via underground rings and is shared across the globe. This day of action is hosted by Lady Freethinker, In Defense of Animals, Feline Guardians, and Animal Defenders International. Innocent cats have been burned, electrocuted, boiled alive, and dismembered in these gruesome videos, which are typically found on Telegram and the dark web but are sometimes also shared on mainstream social media platforms – where children may see. We’ll be gathering outside the Chinese Consulate in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and other locations globally to memorialize the victims, call for justice, and urge Chinese officials to take action to stop this horror. Signs and banners will be provided. Please wear all black, preferably without slogans.

Our aim is to end the cruelty, and never to insult any race or culture (which would only hurt our cause).
