I only heard of this man a few days ago... Here, he shares his powerful and moving story... Having survived the Holocaust, he shares how today´s animal farms resemble what he experienced in the camps, and why he has dedicated his life to being the voice of animals.

My friends, the oppressive mindset is not about the victims, be they animals, Bosnians, Tutsis, Cambodian victims of Pol Pot or European Jews. It's about us. Never again should not be about what others shouldn't do to us. It should be about what we shouldn't do to others."

Thanks for taking the time to watch it.
Yes, it is powerful. You can see how much it costs him to speak at times... He has my respect.

Hej Earthling 2
Temmelig fantastisk menneske -ham Herschaft
Jeg skal inddrømme, at der var dele af begyndelsen som jeg simpelthen ikke ville se. Der var billedsekvenser og fortællinger som ikke bør eksistere.
At det samme forekommer -lige nu -i andre dele af verden, gør det ikke bedre, kun meget, meget sørgeligt.
Det kan dog ikke undre, at når så mange har parkeret hjertet i kælderen og låst døren, at vi så får den samme holocaust gentaget i global skala, overfor andre levende væsener.
\\\"For dyrene er alle mennesker nazister
For dyrene er hele livet et Treblinka\\\"
Stor respekt for Herschaft, som med kærlighed og dybe følelser, åbner almindelige menneskes øjne for hvordan de i hverdagen faktisk begår nazisternes gerninger igen og igen, hver gang de sætter tænderne i et stykke kød.
For slet ikke at tale om de miljømæssige konsekvenser som han heller ikke glemmer....
Tak

You´re welcome, Reborn!
Still on the same theme, I came across the Australian Animal Rights painter, Jo Frederiks, yesterday. She has an incredible painting exhibition on The Animal Holocaust. She uses art to raise awareness of animal suffering and inspire change to a cruelty free lifestyle.
Her exhibition is accompanied by a powerful speech from Animal Rights activist, Philip Wollen. Really worth the listen!
