I believe that we have to be inclusive in the animal rights movement and attack the system using all kinds of methods in all sorts of fields. I do think that there is a real elitism in the movement, however. This post is inspired by a thought-provoking piece on the Provoked blog (clearly a good name for a blog!)

I not only learned about Harvey Milk, but about the early stages of the gay rights movement (which is ongoing today when one looks at all the right-wing flutterings over gay marriage.) It made me think though about the animal rights movement. Are we really a social movement like gay rights and civil rights?

There is a general consensus that vegetarianism and veganism are different philosophically. The underlying premise is that you can know what is right (such as me knowing what's right then eating cow flesh in the form of filet mignon for a year), but that by no means will necessarily manifest in your behavior. How about this?
