“We know that we are in a long-term social justice struggle”

By Lauren Choplin on February 12, 2020

“We don’t even know how to spell the words ‘give up.’ We know that we are in a long-term social justice struggle that we fully intend to win. And if we don’t win, then our children will win. But by golly, it will be won.” – NhRP President Steven M. Wise

In a new hour-long episode of Our Wild World Talk Radio hosted by Eli Weiss, Steve talks about the progress we’ve made as we’ve litigated against the presumed dominion of human over nonhuman animals, what makes this progress possible (hint: it involves you!), and much more. Listen here!

Lauren is the NhRP’s Communications Director. She heads up internal and external communications, coordinating media coverage of our legal and policy work and managing our blog and social media pages.
