From Performative to Transformative: Navigating Equity & Inclusion Across a Diverse Animal Advocacy Movement

The purpose of this study is to understand how animal advocates and non-advocates who are Black, Indigenous, or People of Color (BIPOC), along with leaders of U.S. farmed animal advocacy organizations, perceive inclusion in the U.S. farmed animal protection movement. Based on interviews with BIPOC and non-BIPOC participants, we aim to identify potential opportunities and barriers for the creation of a more inclusive farmed animal protection movement.
