The irony of me telling YOU about Anna Sewell is thick! Here I am , a meat eating animal killing(indirectly) carnivore telling YOU about one of the first animal rights activists. northern.edu According to Prusty, Black Beauty had a “missionary aim” to “induce kindness, sympathy, and an understanding treatment of horses.” The book was widely used as propaganda by groups seeking more humane treatment of horses and the elimination of the bearing rein; thousands of copies were given away to horse handlers and drivers in an effort to restrain abuse of work animals. The book did lead to the abolition of the bearing rein, although it was not the only propaganda in these efforts -- just the strongest one. I wouldn't say my daughter is a intentionally a vegetarian. She just wont eat ANYTHING. Her diet consists of cereal, pizza, eggs, toast, and bread.
