- Abstract
The animal rights movement has pioneered new, diverse forms of social activism that have rapidly redefined how we view animals. But those remarkable successes have been met with an increasingly aggressive backlash, including new terrorism laws, widespread surveillance, experimental prisons, and legislation explicitly criminalizing journalists and whistleblowers. This Article will explain how, if left unchecked, these attacks on animal advocacy will become a blueprint for the wider criminalization of dissent.
