...the exploitation and torture of non-human animals comes from the same master/oppressor ideology that has created atrocities like African slavery, Native American genocide and the Jewish Holocaust. Marjorie Spiegel, author of
The Dreaded Comparison: Human and Animal Slavery,
notes:
"Comparing the suffering of animals to that of blacks (or any other oppressed group) is offensive only to the speciesist: one who has embraced the false notions of what animals are like. Those who are offended by comparison to a fellow sufferer have unquestioningly accepted the biased worldview presented by the masters. To deny our similarities to animals is to deny and undermine our own power. It is to continue actively struggling to prove to our masters, past or present, that we are similar to those who who have abused us, rather than to our fellow victims, those who our masters have also victimized.
...as divergent as the cruelties and the supporting systems of oppression may be, there are commonalities between them. They share the same basic relationship - that between oppressor and oppressed."...
