Upcoming Events
Animal Voices
Tuesday 06 March, 11AM
Eastern Shore Sanctuary cofounder pattrice jones will be featured on
the Animal Voices radio program on Tuesday 06 March from 11 to noon, to
talk about her new book Aftershock: Confronting Trauma in a Violent
World: A Guide for Activists and Their Allies.
Tune in live via:
CIUT 89.5 FM Toronto
http://www.ciut.fm
Listen to the podcast later via:

Aftershock is about the real war against terror -- the struggle for a
world in which nobody lives in fear of atrocities perpetrated by human
beings. Every day, people who push against violence and injustice or
pull for peace and freedom must face their own fears. Many activists
also must struggle with "aftershock," the physical and emotional
reverberations of frightening, horrifying, or otherwise traumatizing
experiences endured in the course of their activism.
The book includes practical tips for individuals, organizations, and
communities, as well as information about how traumatic events affect
our bodies and abilities. Aftershock also explores the culture of
trauma that people have created through our violent exploitation of the
Earth, other animals, and one another.

On Animal Voices, pattrice will discuss trauma among animal liberators,
sanctuary workers, and other animal advocates whose work either places
them in danger or forces them to confront, over and over again, the
suffering of others. She'll share tips for taking care of yourself so
that you can take better care of others and be a more effective
activist. She'll also talk about what we all can do to help to heal our
traumatized ecosystems and communities.
