Reminder: Act Against Factory Farming & Act For Compassion - Satu rday, July 13th, 12 noon - 2 pm, Market & Powell, SF

July 12, 2002

Dear Friends,

Just a quick reminder that the Food & Social Justice Project is hosting a fun,

celebratory, educational, gastronomic event tomorrow afternoon. From 12 noon - 2

pm, we will be assembled at Market & Powell in San Francisco (adjacent to the

Powell Street BART station), where we will be:

* distributing literature (on the many motivations for going vegan);

* screening factory farming video footage;

* offering passersby yummy samples of vegan food;

* cheering people for considering a vegan diet;

* holding placards, reminding people that certain food choices involve cruelty

and violence.

As with all of our events, the idea is to approach people positively about going

vegan. Everyone is welcome to join us in this effort. This event is being in

conjunction with Viva!USA, which has designated July 13th as a day to Act

Against Factory Farming. While we oppose factory farming, we support

positive lifestyle changes that promote health, environmentalism, and compassion

for animals.

Following the event at Market & Powell, we will be walking over to Golden Era

restaurant at O'Farrell & Leavenworth, for a late lunch. Again, all are welcome

to join!

In lieu of the work that is being done for Saturday's event, we are canceling

tonight's Vegan Video Brigade, but will resume the brigade *next* Friday, July

19th.

Hope to see many people at the events!!

Best regards,

Alka
