Tonight we are thinking of Gretchen Mogensen. She is preparing to say goodbye to her animals for the next 100 days. They won't understand her absence--especially her beloved Mutosh--but she has made plans to ensure their care.
Gretchen is going to jail on October 29th because she dared to film the government's abuse of her animals and publicly called them out for it. Now she is being punished and the Animal Law Unit is doing everything they can to break her spirit.
We want Gretchen to know we believe the State of Virginia is completely in the wrong. We admire her grit and see the amazing relationships she has with her animals. We are her biggest human fans.
The fight is not over and the next 100 days will pass. In the meantime, we will not rest. We will not go silent. We see the injustice.
"The worst form of injustice is pretended justice." – Plato
“Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly.”
― Martin Luther King Jr., Letter from the Birmingham Jail
