the intent of this blog is to inspire the practice of holistic activism--recognizing the interconnectedness of all forms of oppression and using that awareness to help upset the set up.

"To say that noise is a relatively weak issue because it is less momentous than world hunger or global climate change is to make an incomplete statement. Noise is a weak issue also because most of those it affects are perceived, and very often dismissed, as weak. The ones who dismiss them, in addition to being powerful, are often the ones making the noise."

Dolphin Slaughter in Denmark
this one is for those of you, who forget that capitalism is a world-wide phenomenon and that its absolutely barbaric wherever it's practiced. dolphins are not only being slaughtered in japan and the cruelty to other animals in china isn't any different than it is in the americas, europe, etc. i'm sharing this because animal whites (not a type-o) and other short-sighted/singular-issue activists love to point the finger at asia instead of looking around them.
