The Students for Critical Animal Studies is hosting its 5th annual conference to give a platform for students, activities and professors to critically assess the animal liberation, oppression and domination theoretically and empirically. Our hope is that the conference will encourage both a productive reflexion that challenges normalcy of systemic oppression that implements discrimination and networking among those who do academic and pragmatic social justice work.
