Upcoming Animal Defense League Events
Please come out to as many events as you can to help make the new year a better one for the animals (and those who fight for them).
Tuesday, January 9th:
Prisoner writing night at Mercury Cafe
1505 W. Chicago
second Tuesday of every month
6-8 PM
Come hang out with fellow activists for a night of prisoner support. Everything you need to start supporting animal liberation prisoners will be provided - all you have to do is come out and write some letters! Remember, these people are in jail for fighting for the animals and mail is their only lifeline to the outside world, it is up to all of us to let them know that they are not forgotten.
Wednesday, Jan 10th
Vegan Outreach
Belmont Red Line Stop
5:30 - 7pm
One of the most direct ways you can help save animals and remove yourself from their exploitation is to go vegan. Each year, billions of animals are killed by the meat and dairy industries to feed humans. As if the animal suffering isn't enough, heart disease, brought on by the consumption of meat and dairy, is the number one killer of humans in the U.S. Come out and help spread the word about the horrors of the meat industry and the benefits of a vegan diet - and if you aren't already, for the animals and for your health, go vegan!
Thursday Jan 11th

Anti-Fur Outreach
Lyric Opera House (NW corner of Madison and Wacker)
6:45 P.M. - Curtain
Every winter, fur wearers head out for a night at the opera and display their "glamorous" fur coats to their peers; its time they learn the full story. Come out for a night at the opera with ADL Chicago to show the other half of fur and help spread the message that there isn't anything glamorous about murdering 50,000,000 animals a year for nothing more then vanity and greed.
Saturday, January 27th
Anti-Fur Demonstration
Burberry (633 N. Michigan) and Elan Furs (675 N. Michigan)
1-3pm (Hour one at Burberry, hour two at Elan Furs)
Come out and let these animal killing businesses know that the animals they kill have a voice in the animal rights movement. As long as the animals die, we will not sit by and watch while Burberry and Elan Furs profit from murder of 50,000,000 animals a year.
Friday, February 16th
Anti-Fur Outreach
Lyric Opera House (NW corner of Madison and Wacker)
6:45 - Curtain
Back to the opera for another chance to educate one of the fur industries target markets to the horrors of what really goes into a fur coat and let the fur wearers know exactly what you think of their fashion sense.
See you in the streets,
ADL Chicago
