Thank you, Gary. We needed that.

The animal rights version of the "woke" culture encourages gender and race discrimination when it is directed against white males. It condemns other forms of human discrimination, but shows no signs of caring about nonhuman animal exploitation.

The "woke" culture has been attempting to take over the animal rights movement for the past four years, principally by seizing the Animal Rights National Conference. This year, they have been trying hard to cancel our conference by threatening prospective speakers with withdrawal of financial and social support.

We will not allow that to pass.
