When the Truth Becomes a PR Problem: The Rise of Agricultural Front Groups
Animal Justice’s documentary about front groups and the man driving many of these initiatives, Charlie Arnot.
The Purpose
As part of Animal Justice’s ongoing effort to tackle the animal agriculture industry’s systemic power, we have produced two short documentaries about underdiscussed adversaries with an outsized influence in government, media, and corporate supply chains.
We believe these issues have been longstanding barriers to progress when it comes to animal protection in Canada and should be a priority for animal activists looking to drive systemic change.
While anyone is welcome to attend, the purpose is for animal activists and soon-to-be-activists to better understand these issues and to initiate and facilitate grassroots organizing to tackle them.
We will host a Q&A and facilitated discussion after the film screenings.
I look forward to seeing you there.
Michelle Oberg, Volunteer Mobilization Lead, Animal Justice
