Empower and fortify?
We received some questions about this one. First let us say that “empower and fortify” does NOT mean reinforcing a dogmatic allegiance to any particular tactic. Individuals and groups who work to defend nonhuman animals and the ecosystems upon which all life depends are facing intense repression at this time. We at HALA feel the need for a positive space wherein we can critically evaluate our strategies, deal with our fear and cynicism, and proceed in the most effective manner.
