What If We Stopped Factory Farming?

Abstract

My ideas around factory farming stem from a dire need to see change in how we treat farm animals and our bodies, a perspective first inspired by readings in ENGL 150. This project imagines a world where individuals can consume animal products in more ethical ways and draws from Indigenous and Queer teachings that centre community and resistance. My intention with this piece is to shift cynical views on the industrialization of farming, to ones of radical hope by including real changes our communities can make.
