As Wicked: For Good hits theaters today, it's important not to ignore the root of Elphaba’s supposed wickedness: her horror at the mistreatment of animals and her determination to free them.
How did Elphaba become wicked? There’s a hidden message people keep missing.
The treatment of animals in the real world is far stranger — and crueler — than in Wicked.

The meat industry is finally being pushed to answer for years of misleading climate claims.

New settlements against Tyson and JBS show that real accountability is possible.

It’s unacceptable that research puppy mill Ridglan Farms was allowed to torture beagles as long as they did. Rebekah Robinson of Dane4Dogs talks with Jeremy about the government inaction that stalled progress and leaves beagles STILL under Ridglan’s control.

Ridglan Farms is a notorious Wisconsin beagle breeder known for mutilating dogs during painful surgeries and selling dogs to cruel research labs. Now, thanks to people like Rebekah Robinson, president of Dane4Dogs, Ridglan's losing their breeding license.
