END the BLOODY FUR TRADE!
Oct 11, 2009

Paw Print 1.jpg  With the help of producers John Feldmann (lead singer of Goldfinger and famed music producer), Jennifer Lee Pryor (widow of the infamous Richard Pryor and amazing activist) along with Gene Blalock and The Faded,  and title theme by Duran Duran, this film will shatter the fashion industry!

video - trailer on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQHx8NQ2bKU, original web page: http://www.skintradethemovie.com/ 

Paw Print 1.jpg  After learning about the film through the trailer and website, more celebrities have contributed their time and voices to this film! James Cromwell, star of "Spiderman 3," "Babe," and "Six feet Under," Rikki Rockett, drummer for Poison, Todd Oldham, infamous fashion deisgner, Patrick Byrne, CEO of Overstock.com, and Ashley Paige, world-renowned fashion designer, just to name a few!

Paw Print 1.jpg  BUT we still need YOUR help! This film is being made through contributions to our non-profit ARME (www.arme.tv). Without more contributions, it will be difficult to get the film in theatres. Now is the time to really step up and help us get the media we need as well as funding for our MPAA rating so that we can get this into mainstream theatres, which is where it needs to be! Imagine..... "Skin Trade" playing at the Arclight, The Mann's, or even the Pacific Theatres! IF THIS CAN'T END THE FUR TRADE, NOTHING WILL! Please send your DONATION today! You get a tax write-off and you are directly helping to stop the fur trade! CLICK HERE TO DONATE.

Paw Print 1.jpg  We have a new THEATRICAL trailer and new website up to check out. Click below to see the new trailer and go to the website at: www.skintradethemovie.com. Also check out our new youtube channel at: http://www.youtube.com/uncagedfilms and vote/comment on the trailer.

WORLDWIDE FREE FRIDAY; NOVEMBER 28 TH.
Oct 3, 2008
Focus: Animal Welfare
Action Request: Protest
Location: Israel
message from Jane (anti fur coalition- Israel):

WHAT ;demonstrations against fur
WHEN - November 28th 2008
WHERE - selling fur shops/locations
Coordinator - Jane Halevy janeart3@gmail.com
==============================
Hello dear Anti Fur Knights,

Proposition of a MEGA ACTION for November 28th, joining the FUR FREE FRIDAY.
60 days from today - enough time for everyone to act!!

On November 28th there will be the annual fur free Friday - a national event for U.S.A . My proposition to you is making this day international.
As we had done last year (on Nov 3rd & Nov 23th ) - on those both days we had done 60 demos, everyone together !
So, shall we do it again? let's unite again our strenght and organize a Mega International Anti Fur Day with worldwide demos; Every coordinator should plan the perfect big demonstration in its country/city against a fur selling shop.
Every organization in every country picks up its best "shop victim" to make a demo there.
We need to show how we're united worldwide against those crimes on animals,
and our determination to save them from their gruesome deaths.
We should all come together on this one day, on the behalf of animals, and give them a voice!!
As a quote, I love from our DEAR friends from Animal Liberation Front – "There is no justice for animals. They have only us".

So shall November 28th be their worldwide "justice" day?
We really need to do again something HUGE worldwide, we need to be more active united, on the behalf of animals!

please get back to me at: janeart3@gmail.com  
I'll be waiting for your ideas & suggestions to make this worldwide day happening!
We need to focus on the buyers (they are the ones creating the disaster), and show them the truth about what they are buying.
The only way to get great consciousness for the animal fates is only if we are united in this !


So "get up, stand up, we have to answer their cry to survive, and let the animals stay beautiful ALIVE"
(this is a line from our video clip against fur "Skinned alive". You can watch it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DqqlESVCzGI&feature=email)
Yours,
Jane janeart3@gmail.com

DOG/CAT FUR import into EU--Commissioner Kyprianou's reply
May 14, 2007


Hello everyone,
Attached is the reply from Commissioner Kyprianou to my letter to him last February. This seems to confirm my fears and precisely the reason as to why the Anti-Fur Society wrote to the European Parliament in the first place:
THE LOOPHOLE:   
Notice:   "fur of cats and dogs" that were not bred for fur will be allowed into Europe.  
Also, the secondary loophole:  Fur that are obtained and brought by people into the European countries.  What is that supposed to mean?
My opinion is that if this law passes with these loopholes, then they might just as well declare that the 'CAT & DOG FUR IS NOT ILLEGAL IN EUROPE"   
Nevertheless, since it is not over yet, PLEASE keep the pressure:  write to EU commissioner asking him to close the loopholes.

Thank you,
Rosa

Global Day of Action against the Chinese Fur Industry

International Anti-Fur Coalition plans protests in more than 20 locations on February 13th
Over half of the world's fur today is produced by China, a country with no animal welfare laws where millions of dogs and cats are also killed for fur every year. Undercover video investigations have shown Chinese fur farm workers skinning animals alive without concern for their pain, leaving them to a slow and agonizing death. .
 Many organizations around the world are fighting to stop this ongoing atrocity, and proudly join the International Anti-Fur Coalition in the annual global day of action against the Chinese fur industry, taking place on Tuesday, February 13th.
. Please join us this year and stand up for all the animals suffering on Chinese fur farms.
What:    Protest against the Chinese fur industry

When:   Tuesday, February 13th , 2007
Where:   Worldwide Chinese Ambassies/ consulates.
*If you would like to hold a demo, to represent your city/country, together with us, please write us.
*If you are not  able to make it to a demonstration, at least,  please call or fax the Chinese Consulate on February 13th to urge them to stop killing dogs and cats for fur and to pass meaningful animal welfare laws. Please be polite and respectful in your communications with Consulate staff.
                                  
" THE ANIMALS HAVE ONLY US.WE CAN NOT FAIL THEM. "
