ARCO update - Go Vegan

Posted by Minoesj on 29 July, 2008 20:37

Thanks to people like Gary Francione and other abolitionists, the definition of animal rights has become clearer. We cannot talk about animal rights while we still use animals exclusively as resources. To reflect ARCO's conviction that "veganism is the moral baseline of animal rights," we have removed the (ovo-lacto) vegetarianism board. In its place will be a "Veggie to Vegan" board to facilitate the transition to veganism. Non-vegetarians wishing to become vegan are, of course, warmly welcomed here, as well!

We have also added 'Educational Outreach and Activism' and made a new category, 'Relevant Issues' where you can discuss Human Rights, Racism, Feminism, or any other form of exploitation.

We've moved a few other things around, but those are the main changes. We are always open to suggestions, so if you think we can make the forum better, just let us know.

Please do check out the new ARCO. Don't hesitate, just log in and start posting! Let's get re-acquainted!
