You can listen to this episode above and subscribe to our podcast on iTunes. You can also listen to this episode on Stitcher, Cyber Ears or download it on Archive.org (45mins, 38MB).

In light of the recent industry-imposed live export (very partial) ban, this episode features the talk ‘An Anarchist Analysis of the Campaign Against Live Animal Export’ by Jess Ison and Nick. In this talk, we critique the campaign based on anarchist, anti-racist and animal liberation perspectives. This talk was recorded at the 2018 Melbourne Anarchist Bookfair and you can see links to all of the sources referred to in the description of the talk on archive.org – you can also hear the full talk including a section from Lara Drew at that link.

For more on connections between animal liberation and anarchism, check out episode 202 and you can also hear about the Fast for Freedom mentioned in the talk on episode 192 and listen to episode 131 for more on mental health and animal advocacy.

Also mentioned throughout the episode is: the importance of activist media (check out the radio show Indymedia – whole episodes, individual interviews – for another example of this kind of media), anarchism and animal liberation (for more on this, you can listen to the panel discussion on this topic featuring Nick and others here or on episodes 152 and 153), and the Animal Activists Forum (which we discussed on episodes 187 and 188).
