Sunaura Taylor’s Beasts of Burden: A Book Presentation and Artist Talk

"In her recently published book Beasts of Burden, artist Sunaura Taylor proposes proposes that issues of disability and animal justice – which have heretofore primarily been presented in opposition – are in fact deeply entangled. Fusing philosophy, memoir, science, and the radical truths these disciplines can bring – whether about factory farming, disability oppression, or our assumptions of human superiority over animals – Taylor draws attention to new worlds of experience and empathy that can open up important avenues of solidarity across species and ability. How can thinking about disability help us to see animals differently?"
