Activism simply means taking action to back a cause. If you're interested in animal protection, welfare, and autonomy, why not start acting on your beliefs? There are so many specific causes and concerns related to animal rights that it might feel overwhelming or daunting to get involved. However, if you take time to learn about the issues, cultivate a cruelty-free lifestyle, and take action when and where you can, animal rights activism can give you the opportunity to do rewarding work that makes a difference.
