Animal Rising has made global headlines with its risk-taking actions including: sending hundreds of protesters to disrupt England's most famous horse race, rescuing lambs from the estate of the King of England and occupying massive dairy factories. Their mission is to reinvent humanity's broken relationship with animals by getting people to understand that it is morally wrong to use, abuse and kill animals for food, fashion, entertainment or experimentation. Often wearing matching pink sweatshirts, Animal Rising members risk arrest and even their lives to confront, in a nonviolent way, people who are participating in animal exploitation. In this interview, UnchainedTV's Jane Velez-Mitchell talks to Animal Rising Co-Director Ben Newman and Animal Rising associate Rose Patterson.

In this extraordinary show, you will meet Delilah, a cat who survived hellish, taxpayer funded experiments at a USDA lab before being rescued by Anthony Bellotti, the President & Founder of White Coat Waste, whom you’ll also meet. Millions of other animals are not so lucky. Right now, about 14,000 cats and kittens are trapped in laboratories. The domestic shorthair is one of America’s most popular pets. But federal government agencies like the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture (USDA), the Dept. of Veterans Affairs (VA), and the Dept. of Defense (DOD) have spent millions to buy, breed, and abuse felines in wasteful laboratory torture—and YOU, the taxpayers, pay the bill whether you approve of this government sanctioned sadism or not.   But there’s hope. White Coat Waste is a bipartisan campaign to expose and close the U.S. government’s cat and animal experimentation business. WCW proclaims that, over the last 5 years, it has shut down all confirmed labs causing pain and distress to cats inside the federal government and won the first-ever federal policies to retire and release survivors as pets. Now WCW is leading the fight to end taxpayer-funded cat and kitten experimentation across the United States. WCW Founder and President Anthony Bellotti (along with Delilah) joins UnchainedTV’s Jane Velez-Mitchell to reveal what YOU can do to stop these wasteful experiments.

A groundbreaking legal battle rages in Peru over vegan meal options at school.

Here’s the petition to sign: https://www.drove.com/campaign/66b61378245bf7adb546dece The students argue this violates their constitutional rights and is a form of discrimination, similar to racism, sexism, homophobia, etc. Now, we get to meet these two extraordinary students, Gabriela Santos Tacuri and Luis Nitai Syam Florian Andrade, along with Instituto de Defensa Legal attorney Isaac Peña Lobato, interpreter Yeniffer Yupanqui and Alison Hamje, Climate Healer and Ollas Comunes Veganas representative.

White Coat Waste is a leading voice against cruel, useless, wasteful government experimentation on animals. WCW’s viral #BeagleGate campaign has now led to the introduction of the PROTECTING DOGS SUBJECTED TO EXPERIMENTS ACT (HR 8699) to defund unnecessary dog experiments conducted with tax dollars by the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Says WCW, “NIH-funded white coats are wasting millions of taxpayer dollars to inject puppies with cocaine, de-bark and poison dogs, infest beagles with flies and ticks, and force dogs to suffer septic shock. A supermajority of Americans across the political spectrum want Congress to cut NIH’s wasteful spending on dog experiments. The solution is clear: stop the money. stop the madness.” Visit whitecoatwaste.org to get involved. Now, Anthony Bellotti, Founder and President of the White Coat Waste Project (WCW) and WCW’s Senior VP, Justin Goodman, talk to UnchainedTV’s Jane Velez-Mitchell about what YOU can to to end this torture.

Tell the USDA to Update Archaic Animal Transport Regulations! SIGN NOW: It takes a second: https://act.mercyforanimals.org/page/tell-usda-update-archaic-animal-transport-regulations/petition You’ve likely seen trucks on the highway packed with pigs, chickens, or other farmed animals. In crowded trailers or stacked crates, animals suffer long, grueling journeys with no food or water. These animals are usually on their way to slaughter, meaning their final hours or days are some of their most harrowing. And transport trucks are not designed to protect animals from harsh weather. In winter, farmed animals endure below-freezing conditions and are exposed to snow, rain, and frigid winds. Many die of hypothermia. Some even freeze to the floors or sides of trailers. In summer, temperatures inside trucks rise to well over 100°F. Many animals suffer heat stress, asphyxiation, and heart attacks. This is unacceptable suffering, and U.S. laws are nowhere near sufficient to protect these animals. Many animals suffer agonizing deaths from dehydration, suffocation, and severe injuries due to overcrowding. Animal transport regulations in the United States are downright disgraceful. The U.S. Department of Agriculture and Department of Transportation have the authority to draft regulations for and enforce laws related to animal transport. Please join Mercy For Animals in calling on the USDA and Department of Transportation to modernize U.S. animal transport laws by providing species-appropriate space, rest time, food, water, and protection from extreme temperatures.

World leaders are converging in Egypt for COP27, the UN's climate change summit. One person you will NOT see at the summit is Greta Thunberg. The 19-year old, world-famous climate activist has called the climate summit, “greenwashing.” COP27 has begun with a warming that planet earth is issuing “a distress signal.” A new UN report says the past 8 years are on track to be the warmest ever recorded. Another person you will NOT see at COP 27 is Dr. Sailesh Rao, founder of Climate Healers and Food Healers, who just held an alternative, virtual summit called V-COP11. Dr. Rao joins UnchainedTV to outline why he feels COP 27 is a COP OUT and what solutions WILL reverse climate change.
