"Eating Animals" Special Screening

DePaul College of Law Vincent G. Rinn Law Library and its partner, the DePaul College of Law Center for Animal Law invite you to join us for a special screening of the documentary Eating Animals by Christopher Quinn with introductory remarks by Professor Howard Rosing; Executive Director of the Steans Center for Community-based Service Learning and Community Service Studies, Co-director of DePaul’s graduate program in Sustainable Urban Development (SUD), Cultural anthropologist, and Author of “Chicago : A Food Biography".  This critically lauded film has been described as “an urgent, eye-opening look at the environmental, economic, and public health consequences of factory farming. Tracing the history of food production in the United States, the film charts how farming has gone from local and sustainable to a corporate Frankenstein monster that offers cheap eggs, meat, and dairy at a steep cost: the exploitation of animals; the risky use of antibiotics and hormones; and the pollution of our air, soil, and water.”

This screening is free and open to the general public. Space is limited, so all attendees are required to register via Eventbrite. No food will be allowed in the CDM Theater. Non-alcoholic beverages with spill-proof lids will be permitted.
