Police Repression of Animal Activism: Creating a Mass Movement and Security Culture

Harley reflects on her activism in the UK with Animal Rebellion over the last few years, focusing on tensions between trying to build a mass movement for animals while also being concerned about police repression and security culture. She also discusses the loss of momentum for activists during the pandemic and ways to overcome this.  Links: You can find out more about Animal Rebellion at: https://animalrebellion.org/  Music: Animal liberation by Los Fastidios: https://www.losfastidios.net/ Dear England by Lowkey ft Mai Khalil: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LL0Y4MZ45bo Incompatible by Colour Me Wednesday: https://colourmewednesday.bandcamp.com/album/spoonboy-colour-me-wednesday-split Farewell To My City by Frank Turner: https://frank-turner.com/discography/fthc/  Make sure you tune in live to our animal liberation trivia show on Sunday 19th June, 1-2pm Melbourne time!
