Animal rights activists gather for global demonstration

The Durban team of Anonymous for the Voiceless, a global animal rights organisation that specialises in street activism, established in April 2016, held a demonstration for International Cube of Truth Day at the Durban beach promenade this month.

To date, over 1 176 demonstrations have been held in 246 cities worldwide.

Tara Parker from Anonymous for the Voiceless, said: “During our demonstrations we aim to show the public the truth about animal agriculture and the devastating impact it has on our health and environment. Most importantly, we expose the gross exploitation and abuse of our fellow animals who are regarded and treated as objects and possessions.”

Tara said the group adopts a respectful and professional approach when conducting its cubes.

“People approach us, watch the footage and we supply them with information and facts about what is happening. We educate people on the solution and fastest growing social justice movement of our time – veganism. We have very positive interactions and feedback from the public who are shocked to learn the truth and eager to change for the better,” she said.

Tara said the demonstration in November marked a momentous occasion for animal activism and was the biggest joint demonstration globally that she is aware of.
