VSDC Restaurant Visit and Animal Rights Discussion: Great Sage, Clarksville, MD
Friday, July 10, 2026, 7:00 PM EDT
Held at Great Sage, 5809 Clarksville Square Dr,, Clarksville, MD
Hosted by Veg Society of DC
Join [VSDC](vsdc.org) in supporting a vegan restaurant with vegan community as we share a vegan meal and discussion on Animal Rights and how those rights can be realized.
We will explore if something is starting to change and the transition to a vegan world might actually be starting to happen. *Consider this:* - Ridglan, a medical testing beagle breeding facility, is shutting down and all 2000 of its beagles are being adopted as a direct result of animal rights activism. - Philadelphia has just banned horse drawn carriages. - Due, almost entirely to animal activism, the fur industry is greatly weakened and may not survive at all much longer - Oregon is in the process of adding a ballot initiative to ban all exemptions to animal cruelty laws, making hunting, fishing and raising and slaughtering animals for food illegal throughout the state.
If you want to explore recent progress towards, and challenges to, animal liberation, let's talk.
Join us for a plant-based meal at Great Sage Vegan Restaurant in Clarksville, MD. Find out more at https://greatsage.com Everyone will order food on their own and pay the restaurant directly.
