The event will be hosted across the globe in more than 20 countries. The purpose of this event is to promote the ethos of the 269 movement – which is to bring animal liberation to the forefront of human consciousness and commit to do our part in bringing an end to the animal holocaust. We also wish to raise awareness about veganism, and all its benefits. We encourage all 269 groups, around the world to reach out to their local animal liberation groups and stand together as one voice on this day. We speak for those who cannot speak for themselves, and they need for us to put aside any differences we may have and stand together in solidarity. ** IF YOU WANT TO TAKE A PART IN THE EVENT PLEASE MESSAGE 269Life South Africa OR 269life ** Countries taking part in the event: 01 South Africa 02 Netherlands 03 Israel 04 Slovakia 05 Czech Republic 06 Canada 07 Poland 08 New Zealand 09 Greece 10 Germany 11 Belgium 12 Nepal 13 UK 14 Mexico 15 Romania 16 Costa Rica 17 Rosario 18 Denmark 19 Brazil 20 France Rhone Alpes 21 Hungary 22 France Who is 269? “269” is a calf who was born into an Israeli dairy farm. His life was saved, near his scheduled slaughter day. On October 2nd of 2012, World Farm Animals day, at Rabin Square in central Tel-Aviv, 269Life activists performed an act of solidarity and empathy towards abused animals exploited by the human race. The displays aim is to call for empathy towards the most oppressed sector of our society and call into question the deep disconnect we as a society, have towards sanctioned animal cruelty. The activists got branded with a hot steel brand, in the same way farm animals are branded in farms all over the world. The number 269, which was burned on their skin, was the designated number of a calf they have encountered in one of Israels dairy farms. This anonymous male calf will be forever immortalized on our bodies, and hopefully this message of solidarity will somehow bring a new way of looking at non-human animals. No animal should be exploited to satisfy the selfish needs and whimsical desires of humans, and that is why we chose to use the industrys own method of objectifying living beings as this symbolic means to convey our idea. Annually, more than 150 billion animals are murdered worldwide due to peoples selfishness, ignorance and greed. This madness must stop and will stop the day humankind finally wakes up and understands that even the nameless feel pain and desire freedom no less than us humans. If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet deprecate agitation, are people who want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the roar of its many waters. Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will. (Frederick Douglass, slavery abolitionist, 1818-1895) 269life Video and Music production by Remko Ehrhardt — with Ondrej Kral, Mirna Hartskeerl, Libertéanimal Ami and 36 others at Worldwide.
