I didn’t really realise how important feminism was until I became a mother: Daphne Sivetidis (SE/GR)

“Currently, migrant solidarity movements and anti-fascist movements are important to me, as well as Black Lives Matter and other decolonial movements.

Come out of your head and into your heart to connect with your cat: Julie-Anne Thorne (Naturally Cats; UK)

Spreading respect, love and gratitude for cats through tattoos: Iris Lys (Iris Lys Tattoo; UK)

“Human brains need to be reset.. they have to stop believing we are still like cave women and men needing to feed on dead animals. Unfortunately I am not a very positive person on that matter.. People have to stop believing that being vegan is a bad thing and that we do that for provocation, how can you be ok to eat something that like you has a heart and a brain?”

We want to move away from the concept that animals need to be useful to humans: TASS (Tribe Animal Sanctuary Scotland; SCT)

Holistic Help for Cats and their Guardians: Julie-Anne Thorne (Naturally Cats; UK)

Promoting vegan, feminist and environmental messages on film and also behind the camera: Melanie Light (UK)

“There is something which is like an addiction from working in the film industry, I love it as form of art and creativity.

I am working hard to get myself into a position where I can use my platform of film making to spread messages and awareness of positivity.”

Advocating for a better world for animals, one art piece at a time: Jane Lewis (UK)

"Non-human persons can teach us to respect and to live in harmony with the planet’s natural environment, and to take from nature only what we really need. Humanity is in the final stages of polluting and destroying the environment for ego and greed. We would do well to look to other animals as examples of how to live with instead of against nature."

I've spent my life healing and improving myself and hopefully I can help others on their path.”

I cannot walk on oblivious to their plight.”
