Let's create a kinder world. 

Hello WAM community,

I’m Kelly Guerin, a filmmaker with We Animals Media since 2016. 

As multimedia storytellers, our team shares a common mission: to make visible the lives of animals trapped in our human world. We seek to tell stories that can give animals a more prominent place in our public conscience.

One of these stories began back in 2015 when I first heard about the work of a small number of activists fighting for animal liberation in - of all places - Palestine. 

Back then, I had no idea where the story would take me, but I knew I could not walk away.

Over the course of five years and four filming trips, I slept on office floors and ran through clouds of tear gas to follow the lives of just a few of these remarkable activists. I watched as they attempted to fight for animals in spite of an overwhelming political and cultural climate which implored them to abandon their cause and focus instead on the pressing issues of their own human liberation. 

Their struggles, amplified by the conflict raging around them, begged a central question, “How can we hope to liberate animals in a world increasingly overwhelmed by human suffering?”

Now, thanks to your support, this story is set to become We Animals Media’s first feature documentary film, Nations of Their Own, to be released in 2020.

Today, our storytelling is going deeper than ever before. We believe that an empathetic lens can elevate animal issues to new heights, create bridges between social movements, and inspire solutions that will result in a kinder and healthier world for all.

This work takes time, resources, dedication, and most importantly, support. None of these stories could be told without you on our side. 

On December 3rd, Giving Tuesday is your chance to get involved and support this critical work. On this special day dedicated to giving, every act of generosity counts!
