DESCRIPTION:Anti-Animal-Use Advocacy Event\nJoin us speaking up for the ani
	mals this Saturday\, between 11:30am and 2pm. Meeting near yellow Informat
	ion booth near the Smith Memorial Student Union building. \nIf you don't s
	ee our group\, try messaging us on Facebook or Instagram. \nWe are Anti-An
	imal-Use—a collective of abolitionist activists committed to ending the ex
	ploitation of all sentient beings.\nWe believe that sentience—not species—
	grants the right to bodily autonomy\, freedom\, and protection from human 
	caused exploitation. Our activism is rooted in the simple truth that using
	 someone against their will is oppression—no matter how it is disguised.\n
	We engage the public in conversations that ask:\nAre you living in alignme
	nt with your moral principles?\nIf you’re against oppression and exploitat
	ion\, why participate in systems that violates animals inherent rights and
	 depends on their use for taste\, fashion\, entertainment\, or cosmetics?\
	nWhen we consider the perspective of the victim\, the violence becomes und
	eniable.\nWe advocate for veganism as the moral baseline—the only ethical 
	way to live without demanding the use\, abuse\, or killing of others.\nWe 
	oppose all forms of exploitation\, oppression\, and arbitrary discriminati
	on—human or nonhuman. We strive to honor the dignity of all sentient being
	s\, to hold ourselves accountable\, to learn from our mistakes\, and to do
	 better—together.\nWe have different options for advocating. We have some 
	TV screens that play dominion. We have nongraphic signs that draw curious 
	people in to answer a few questions. If you are comfortable with talking w
	ith people\, remember to do so in a calm kind manor. Bring focus to the vi
	ctims perspective and remain curious about the other person's perspective.
	 \n**BEFORE ATTENDING**\nPLEASE REVIEW group google file link below for fl
	owcharts. \nFlowcharts are also in file tab of our Facebook group.\nThe fl
	owcharts in the Facebook group's file tab (or AAUA Google Drive) are for s
	upport in your outreach. You do not need to follow them\, but they are the
	re if you get stuck. \nIt's good to review a few of the flowcharts before 
	the event so you are confident when you are talking with the public. \nYou
	 don't need to memorize anything it's just good to be prepared for questio
	ns.\n**Link to Google Drive Flowcharts:\n https://drive.google.com/drive/f

	Most Logical Arguments AGAINST Veganism (In 10 Minutes) by Ed Winters\n**L

	feel free to reach out any questions about the event or group.\nMasks\, sc
	reens\, and signs will be provided by the organizers.\nLet's stand togethe
	r and respect the dignity of sentient life.\nAnimals lose their lives when
	 we stay silent. They deserve immediate liberation from all human-caused e
	xploitation. Veganism is the moral baseline. The least we can do is stop p
	articipating in the injustice. \nActivism is the action beyond just abstai
	ning from injustice. Activism is actively pushing for the end of injustice
	. \nWe are stronger with you.\nWe welcome all\; even if you are late or or
	 can't stay for the whole event.\nThank you\n--Anti-Animal-Use Advocacy\n
