Good read, thank you!

I teach psych at a community college; one exercise in critical thinking is to debate use of animals in labs.This article is very helpful and reinforcing!

Nice! I went to community college, and I remember fondly that my political theory course had a section on liberation politics -- and an excerpt from Peter Singer's Animal Liberation was one of the examples in there. I'm a big fan of CC's, and I dream of teaching at one someday.

@Dean - it really is rewarding;: you reach a diverse population with the opportunity to address what you are passionate about => ignites the passion in others; what's better than that?!! (-;

Yes! I had some of my best discussions in community college -- often far better than the ones I had after transferring to Berkeley. Maybe that's one of the rungs on the ladder to animal liberation -- filling community colleges with pro-animal rights people!

I was blown away when I came to UCB and saw an animal activist community for the first time. I'd love to see that at CC's.
