Videos

  • Meet Your Meat by PETA
    This video takes you through each stage of life for animals on factory farms from birth to slaughter. Includes footage of chickens, pigs, cows, and veal calves. Now with new footage and narrated by Alec Baldwin.
  • Peaceable Kingdom by Tribe of Heart
    From the incredibly talented filmmakers of "The Witness," this deeply moving film explores the plight of farmed animals through the story of Gene and Lorri Bauston of Farm Sanctuary. Heartbreaking actual footage from factory farms, stockyards, and slaughterhouses is masterfully interwoven and juxtaposed with beautiful scenes from the sanctuary, as well as with rescue missions and intensely personal interviews with people who experienced first hand -- and ultimately rejected -- the painful realities of farm life.

Books

  • Diet for a New America by John Robbins
    A great book talking about our dependence on animals for food and the awful conditions under which animals are raised.
  • Mad Cowboy: The Plain Truth from the Cattle Rancher Who Won't Eat Meat by Howard Lyman
    Eye-opening book exposing all the dangers of eating meat. Written by a former cattle rancher who turned vegan.
  • Raising Vegetarian Children by Jo Stepaniak and Vesanto Melina.
    Great book answering just about every question you could have about raising children on a vegetarian/vegan diet. It not only talks about the health issues, but also about the emotional issues related to being raised on a diet different from that of most people around you.
  • A Vegetarian SourceBook by Keith Akers
    This book discusses the different reasons - nutrition, ecology, ethics - for adopting a vegetarian diet. The author explains the vegetarian diet from the points of view of science, medicine, ecology, world hunger, compassion, and religion.
