What is ethical animalism?

Ethical animalism is the ideology and practice of living in alignment with our core values of justice, love, respect, compassion, and nonviolence toward all beings, no matter their species. It is an offshoot of ethical humanism, a human-centric interpretation of these same values.

What are the goals of ethical animalism?

As a reformist movement, ethical animalism strives to correct the deficits of ethical humanism, a closely related ideology that centers the human animal before all else. Within most humanist doctrines, more-than-human animals and the environment they inhabit are viewed as secondary considerations while the wellbeing of human animals assumes center stage. The central goals of ethical animalism are the abolition of human supremacist ideologies and institutions and the creation of a just, equitable society where the fundamental rights of all animals, not just those that happen to be human, are respected and revered.
