Animals Are People, Too

"Animals Are People, Too" is my tribute to farm animals. It is also my statement against animal husbandry and slavery. I believe that us, humans, should work towards their emancipation from the oppressive system we have created for them. By acknowledging that nonhuman animals are people, persons, with personality, needs and emotions, humans will eventually cease from treating them as mere commodity.
