Dear Friends,

 

We have an important request. A song entitled " Corporate America "

has just been released from a new group called Downers Revenge.

This new song pointedly refers to the cruelty of veal crates and

other abuses against animals and the environment. " Corporate

America " was written by Tom Scholz, who is a long-time supporter of

the Humane Farming Association (HFA) and other animal rights

causes.

 

For the next two weeks, it would be helpful for all animal

activists to take the time to play/download this new song from the

following link:

http://artists.mp3s.com/artists/452/downers_revenge1.html.

 

We are trying to generate as many hits as possible. This will

greatly help in the success and promotion of this song. Every daily

play/download is counted - in other words, the more hits this song

gets, the greater the chance it has of getting radio airplay.

 

It would be helpful for all supporters of animal protection and

environmental causes to play/download this song often. Please also

forward this email to others who might be interested.

 

Thank you for helping to get this important message heard by as many

people as possible.

It is the policy of In Defense of Animals to no longer use language

that accepts the current concept of animals as property, commodities

and/or things. Rather than refer to ourselves or others as " owners "

of animals, we now refer to ourselves and others as " guardians " of

our animal friends and to animals as " he " or " she " rather than " it. "

Guardians do not buy or

sell animals; instead they rescue and adopt. We urge you, our

members, to do the same.
