TZID:America/New_York
LOCATION:Minneapolis\, United States
DESCRIPTION:<p>As the poor become poorer\, more prisons are constructed\, and the global south struggles with exploitation\, disease\, hunger\, and mass displacement\, social justice activists are becoming more intolerant of global racism and discrimination. In kind\, the theme of this year&rsquo\;s annual North American Conference for Critical Animal Studies is the intersectionality of race\, ethnicity\, animals\, and spirituality. Some of the foundational questions that the conference is interested in discussing include: Can activists compare struggles of racism to nonhuman animal suffering? What is the intersectional history of ethnicity and animals? Do you have to be anti-racist to be an animal advocate? How has religion aided in the marginalization of people of color and nonhuman animals? How has religion aided in the liberation of people of color and nonhuman animals? How\, if at all\, do animal advocates challenge colonization\, imperialism\, and racism? What are the theoretical and scientific similarities between racism and speciesism? How have different ethnic and spiritual groups addressed animal advocacy?&nbsp\;<br><br>Contact:&nbsp\;icasnorthamerica@gmail.com</a></p>
