Will Hazlitt is a photographer/filmmaker/writer and part of the R9 Media creative group. He focuses an enlightening lens on the enduring endeavors undertaken for animal liberation and animal rights and rejects speciesism in toto.
Additionally, he rejects the ‘greed as economic philosophy’ currently promulgated by the capitalist, stateless and transnational establishment. It is worth recalling the words of Friedrich Engels; “From the first day to this, sheer greed was the driving spirit of civilization.”
Reading widely in art, history and philosophy he has put together a small but respectable personal library.
Will is forthright and nuanced in his advocacy for animal liberation and animal rights and supports both in toto corde meo, et in tota anima men. He can be reached at will@animalliberationpressoffice.org

Nicoal Sheen graduated from CSU Long Beach with her B.A. in Comparative Political Science and specializes in sociopolitical revolution. As both an academic and activist, she recognizes all oppression as interlocking mechanisms used to silence other beings considered "less than" and fights to end these systemic inequalities. Nicoal co-founded Band of Mercy Los Angeles, a grassroots animal rights collective, with her partner in December 2009 which embraces abolitionism and rejects all manifestations of speciesism.
Nicoal is a militant voice for animals out on the streets and will continue to speak for the silenced until total liberation is achieved for our non-human brothers and sisters. You can reach her at nicoal@animalliberationpressoffice.org |

"Who's Afraid of Jerry Vlasak" |
Gary Yourofsky's powerful and enlightening message about the true meaning of animal rights has been heard by more than 50,000 students in 160 middle schools, high schools and universities across the nation. Gary uses thought-provoking prose, inspiring stories, indisputable facts, quotes from Pythagoras, W. R. Inge, and other great thinkers, plus graphic footage from slaughterhouses (land and sea), to ask people to be kind to animals and, ultimately, go vegan.
Gary can be reached at garytofu@earthlink.net, and his website is at ADAPTT.org |

Peter Young, along with many others, has given himself to the defense of innocent life. "Animal rights extremists" or "freedom fighters": call those in this abolitionist struggle what you will. History will absolve us...
Peter was indicted by a federal grand jury in 1998 on charges related to fur farm raids in Iowa, South Dakota, and Wisconsin in 1997. He was in hiding for seven years, before being arrested in San Jose and sentenced to two years' imprisonment in 2005; he was released in February 2007.
