Effective Advocacy 

Been thinking about this a lot lately, and stumbled upon this PETA podcast with Bruce Friedrich. Give it a listen. You may hate PETA or whatever, but just give it a listen and think about what he has to say and how we all could be doing things better. We need to all constantly be checking ourselves to make sure our ego and pride and resistance to personal change isn't getting in the way of making real change.

Also, please don't listen to this and just say, "Yeah, all those other folks are doing it wrong, bunch of jerks..." Make sure you follow up with action yourself. Don't like how local/national AR groups go about doing things? Then get involved with them and make some changes happen. Or start your own group, it's not that hard.

OK, back to spraying down produce and stirring the nacho cheese. Very important activist work in it's own right.
