About this event
Join us for a powerful stand against animal cruelty!
UPDATE 1st action of the day: "Justice for Orelha : • Date: Saturday, April 11 • Time: 12-1:45pm • Meetup location: 7th Ave between 45th and 46th Street. You won't miss us or our signs. We'll gather then walk 1 block over to the Red Steps (Time Square) to demand justice for Orelha, the sweet community dog in Brazil who suffered a brutal attack by teenagers that sparked global outrage. Orelha was sodomized and beaten so badly she died the following day from internal injuries. Led by actress, singer songwriter and influencer Samantha Grace, we'll rally for change and call for meaningful action. With media presence expected, let's unite to make a difference. Feel free to use the graphic, print, or make your own. Follow Samantha on Instagram for full story on Orelha.
-------------------2nd action of the day - MLF: • Let's urge Milan Fashion Week to stop showcasing fashion designers who use real fur on the runway by anouncing a fur-free policy. Our ask is simple: join the rest of the big 4 that have enacted a fur-free policy. Defend wildlife! Fur is a relic that belongs in the past! Let's make fur history! • Those marked "GOING" will receive a private text. I may switch up targets so check your texts • We'll head to our 2nd destination at 2pm and arrive by 2:30 pm. You will be informed then about the next location. We will be on the move. End time 4pm!
If you have questions about this private action send me a text. No one should be excluded from participating in actions in our city but we want to stay safe. We're taking back our streets. Bring your bullhorns- we have a sound permit! Please share and invite friends on Instagram, Face Book, Signal, and WhatsApp - for the animals!
Anti-fur signs will be provided. Bring the noise.
(The campaign against Milan Fashion Week is spearheaded by CAFTUSA and activists in Italy, supported by ARMNC_ . (But anyone can organize fur protests!)
