Fostering Liberation: EBAA featured in Modesto Anarcho Journal

East Bay Animal Advocates is one of the leading lights of the new
breed of animal liberation organizations struggling in the field
currently. Along with groups like Compassion Over Killing, (COK),
and Mercy for Animals, (MFA), EBAA works to educate consumers,
(through outreach, vegan feed-ins, etc), about the affects of the
industrial factory farming industry, and also take action against
it, (investigations, animal rescue, etc). Since it’s start, the
group has managed to perform various investigations into multiple
large farms in the Central Valley and Bay Area, and has recently
set it’s sights on Foster Farms.
