Every day I’m inspired by the compassion, courage, and selflessness I see around me. Together, we’ve persevered through incredible challenges to achieve remarkable wins. As you’ll see below, we recently launched one of our fastest-growing petitions—and it shows no sign of slowing down.

And yet, my heart hurts. The recent attacks in Georgia and the rise in hate crimes against Asian American and Pacific Islander communities are heartbreaking reminders that the kinder, more just, and compassionate world we seek is delicate—and requires our continued commitment. But I know love is more powerful than hate. And as someone of a mixed Asian American descent, I’m grateful to be among advocates and allies today.

As we continue the fight for an end to the abuse of animals raised for food, we also support an end to violence, injustice, and hate in all forms. Thank you for creating a more compassionate world with us.

We don’t believe we can defeat cruelty without also standing against injustice, hate, and violence of all kinds. We are deeply saddened by the attacks in Georgia and the ongoing hate crimes against the Asian American and Pacific Islander communities throughout the US. These acts have no place in the compassionate world we are seeking to create, together.

From all your friends at The Humane League, thank you for all you do for animals and our world.
