WOMEN’S HOUR with Patricia Law Wed 5pm

ANIMAL ABUSE FOR PLEASURE AND ENTERTAINMENT

Patricia and her guest Ellen Ericksen are in conversation about the reality of using animals for entertainment, the abuse and deaths that are hidden from the public.

Ericksen is a dedicated animal rights activist. She has dedicated many years to organizing hundreds of protests at Sea World San Diego, the San Diego Zoo, Cruel Circuses and Horse racing protests at the Del Mar racetrack every summer for many years. She has helped organize the largest protests at Farmer John Slaughterhouse in Los Angeles, some of the largest marches in Los Angeles about the ivory trade and animal extinction and any other animal abuse that needs attention with other dedicated activists. When Ellen is not organizing protests or working full time in healthcare, she commits her time doing Vegan Outreach and has spoken as a humane educator at many universities, colleges, high schools and middle schools. Ellen is the recipient of the 2015 award from The Pollination Project as The Unsung Vegan Hero and FARMS 2018 Grassroots Animal Rights Activist of the year award.

She continues to spread awareness daily to educate many about the horror of factory farming, the environment and living a vegan lifestyle.
