Vigil for the vivisected meeting!

I hope you all had good Christmases and holidays!
now back to school and a new semester...
we kind of ran out of time and it was a little crazy with exams at the end of last year to do the vigil, so we pick up where we left off and get that sorted out so we can do it while its still early in the semester!
as always the meetings are open to anyone so bring friends and anyone interested, were happy to have more people on board

the meeting will be next Thursday the 16th at 7pm, location room 207

Second meeting of the year!

Here are a couple of posters with the information for the next meeting of the Animal Equity Society!

Come on out and bring your friends - we will be discussing an planning this years events, talking about animal right and watching a related movie after! 

If you can only make it for the movie, or just the meeting or will turn up halfway through then that works too, if you cannot make it but would still like to be involved then just email animalequity@gmail.com and we can sort something out :)

Next meeting and seminar on the meaning of 'Rights'

Next meeting!! Everyone is welcome, it is an anti-oppressive space where we can all discuss what Animal Rights means to us on an individual basis, or if you have never really thought about it where better to get an understanding of the issue!

The meeting will be short, seeing what we were able to get done since last meeting (Restaurant survey, aramark food petition, Volunteering at monkey sanctuary, etc)

We will then move onto the Seminar section which will be run by Karena Kyne (Phd Candidate, York University and Anti-Oppression Consultant) on the meaning of 'rights' with regard to animals. There may be an article posted beforehand if you would like to read it so you can start thinking about this topic! it will be in a discussion format where ...people can discuss what they think about the issue, it should be fun and informative, so dont miss out!

I will bring a couple of documentaries as well just in case we still want to watch one after the meeting and seminar..   

The meeting will be held in The Pit (directions below), in Lady Eaton College, at Trent University on the 31st of January at 7pm

If you have any questions feel free to comment, email at animalequity@gmail.com , or join our facebook page!

First A.E.S. meeting and movie screening of 2013!

Our first meeting of the new year! We are hoping to have lots of new faces out this year to build and continue on the work we started in 2012. We are meeting for the first time since December, after many people made it out to our delicious A.E.S. potluck. At the last meeting we discussed the goal of taking a group trip to an animal sanctuary and brainstormed fundraising ideas for both the animals as well as to fund the trip to volunteer for a day. You can see more about the meeting minutes and topics discussed by requesting to join the mailing list or our Facebook page.

This week marks the sixth meeting where we will be screening the 1981 documentary; The Animals Film, directed by Victor Schonfeld and Myriam Alaux, and narrated by actress Julie Christie.

Before the documentary screening, we will be talking about further progression with the group, discussing any new ideas or questions anyone brings up. Please feel free to join us at Trent University on Thursday, January 17th, 2013 at Lady Eaton College. Anyone can take part and listen to the discussion or ask questions.
