The penultimate chapter highlights some ways animal studies raise awareness of not only the plight of nonhuman animals, but also several groups of oppressed human animals. We rely too heavily on traditional views toward the nonhuman, despite our more enlightened times. It is better that we identify with the species similar to us, and to attempt to hear their voices and avoid the traps of mediation when possible, in order to provide all living creatures more autonomy, dignity, and freedom. All animals die, but humans have the power to prevent much of their suffering before they do. |
