Activists and Campaigns: Animal rights organisation PETA has a longstanding reputation of targeting well known brands and utilising confrontational and aggressive message strategies and tactics (Kanski 2016).

The dance crests allude to the important farming skills that men will need in order to provide for their wives and children in the future. During the ritual dance, two men dance as the Ci Wara and his female counterpart. While wearing these headdresses, the men will hunch over and “transform [from] two-legged dancers into four-legged animals,” channeling the impeccable agricultural abilities of the Ci Wara. Additionally, this particular Ci

The world, they believed, was suffused with spiritual power and sacred spirits could be found in all kinds of living and inanimate things – animals, plants, trees, water, and wind.

Animal abuse is

Sooner than the other areas, the tropical and temperate regions of the world started developing warmer, wetter, and more stable conditions where many animals and more wild plants could flourish. Technological agricultural advances in tools, like sickles, were produced to help with the new vegetation. Unlike the newly available wild life flourishing in areas like the Fertile

Feminism, or the advocacy of women’s rights and gender equality, and veganism, or the lifestyle and diet of avoiding animal products, are widely known and decently popular. However, locavorism, which is the lifestyle and diet of purchasing and eating locally and sustainably grown food in order to help the environment and be healthy, is more of a modern concept that was

Haraway, the concept of gender is defined as “a system of social, symbolic, and psychic relations, in which men and women are differentially positioned.” Based on this definition, it can be understood that gender is a category that can be used to dictate an individual’s status and role in a given community. When European explorers, missionaries, and settlers arrived in North America between the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, their preconceived notions

Greece in particular had a very strict patriarchy, with Aristotle once writing “It is best for all tame animals to be ruled by human beings. In the same way, the relationship

This brought villages together physically through agriculture practices while their philosophies united many as a whole throughout the states bringing stability and contentment throughout history. Therefore this text will explore how rice farming and philosophy, such as
