Stories from the Sanctuary

Speciesism: Crushing the Infamous Thing.

Like Voltaire before us, we must rise up for justice for all

Picture
The phrase 'écrasez l'infâme' was popularized by philosopher and social justice warrior Voltaire. In his time, he fought for the freedom to think and speak freely without fear of arrest or oppression in a world dominated by the Catholic Church. Thankfully, today we are the beneficiaries of his struggle. But, we are not without social justice causes that need us to step forward. Let us now use écrasez l'infâme to be the call to fight against prejudices that allow individuals to be victimized for meaningless differences. Whether race, sex, or species, all should be protected in their life, liberty and the pursuit of their version of happiness. ​
