Long live ALF

Just finished the short inspiring broshure “Memories of freedom”, written by (former?) members of Animal Liberation Front – the radical eco-anarchist organization, aiming to down with oppression of animals, vivisection and fur industry by the means of direct action.

The broshure descripts the most outstanding actions of ALF in 90-s, the actions which cost millions of dollars of damage for the vivisectors and capitalists, who make money on death and enormous suffering of hundreds of thousands of animals. So some tactics of the direct action may be borrowed for these who interested.

Some chapters are dedicated to Rod Coronado – eco-anarchist and native American acitivst, who was the first ALF prisoner. Put between the choice – get years of prison or rat his friends and comrades on a subpoena, he have chosen to refuse the collaboration with system and got a 57-month prison sentence.
