Pushing the Law to Evolve: Animal Rights
Hear about the Nonhuman Rights Project’s efforts to use habeas corpus to challenge the confinement of highly intelligent animals, and to push courts to recognize how the law could evolve over time. Connecting animal rights advocacy to earlier civil rights movements, advocates Evan Wolfson, Shannon Minter, Kevin Schneider, and Jake Davis illustrate the power of pro bono — along with long-term litigation, storytelling, and persistence — to move seemingly novel rights claims toward broader acceptance.
