About Stockton Animal Save:
We "erect glass walls" at slaughterhouses in order to encourage people to choose vegan, protect the environment, and support farm sanctuaries. Stockton Animal Save also calls for a just transition for workers as we adjust our food economy to a plant-based diet.
About The Save Movement:
The Save Movement is comprised of groups around the world who bear witness of fishes, chickens, pigs, cows, and other animals en route to slaughter. Our goals are to raise awareness about the plight of farmed animals, to help people become vegan, and to build a mass-based, grassroots animal justice movement.
The Save Movement started in December 2010 with the inception of Toronto Pig Save. Today there are over 130 groups in Canada, the U.S., U.K. & Ireland, Australia, continental Europe, Hong Kong, and South America.
Bearing witness:
Bearing witness is being present in the face of injustice and trying to help. Tolstoy says we all have a duty to bear witness.
