"The animals of the world exist
for their own reasons. They were
not made for humans any more
than black people were made for
whites or women for men."
- Alice Walker

Feminists for Animal Rights: An Ecofeminist Alliance

Feminists for Animal Rights
is a non-profit national educational organization dedicated to ending all forms of abuse against women, animals and the earth. Welcome to our online exploration of the interconnections between the exploitation of women and animals and how you can help bring about a more caring society for all. Although the organization is currently not active, we maintain this site because we feel that FAR's message is still relevant.
