BAAL’s Vegan Sunset Hike

Date and Time: September 21st @ 4:00PM
Location: Mission Trails Regional Park, San Diego.

Join us for a vegan hike and a kick ass time with BAAL. No megaphones, no signs, just a moment to exist with each other in nature. We’ll hike out and watch the sunset and also hopefully we can catch the partial solar eclipse, hang, take pictures, snack, and just be.

This is a straight edge space, no alcohol or drugs. Just good energy, and people who care.

Bring water, food, sunscreen, and anything else that makes you feel grounded.

RSVP on IG, Discord, or FB.
This is a BAAL event. Come as you are, just leave the booze at home. See less

Rose’s Law Day of Action

Date and Time: Sunday, September 28th, 3:00 - 4:00 PM

Location: 2688 E Mission Bay Dr., San Diego, CA 92109

This September 29th, marks seven years since the rescue of Rose — a single chicken whose story ignited a global movement demanding fundamental rights for animals.

In her honor, and for the trillions of animals still suffering around the world, we are launching a Global Week of Action where activists will take action to elevate the urgency and drive the conversation about these 5 basic rights that we demand for all animals:

1. The right to be free - not owned - or to have a guardian acting in their best interest.
2. The right to not be exploited, abused, or killed by humans.
3. The right to have their interests represented in court and protected by the law.
4. The right to a protected home, habitat, or ecosystem.
5. The right to be rescued from situations of distress and exploitation.

WHAT: Banner drop

MEETING LOCATION: 2688 E Mission Bay Dr., San Diego, CA 92109**

Then we will walk to the overpass bridge over the interstate 5 freeway to drop our Rose’s law banner. Join our action in San Diego. Implementing the Animal Bill Of Rights globally is Direct Action Everywhere's ultimate goal. Go to roseslaw.org to know more about Rose’s Law.
During the Rose’s Law Global Week of Action, activists across the globe will organize impactful actions during the week to elevate the Animal Bill of Rights.

Omni Protest

Date and Time: Sunday, September 28th @ 6:00 PM

Location: 675 L street. San Diego

Join our protest at Omni Hotels San Diego, and we need you there. Omni is still tied to foie gras, a product made by force-feeding ducks and geese until their organs swell, fail, and burst. It’s violent. It’s disgusting. And Omni continues to profit from it.

This isn’t just a protest, it’s a full-blown disruption.

We’ll be confronting their complicity head-on.

This is about visibility, pressure, and making it impossible for them to ignore the suffering they’re enabling.

We need people for the following roles:

Sign holders to line the outside and inside with bold messages.

Flyer distributors to engage the public and inform hotel guests.

Megaphone users to lead chants and amplify our voices.

Videographers and photographers to document the action.

It would be great to have supporters in duck or goose outfits (or just bird-themed clothes!) to visually drive the message home, if not no worries.

Props and demonstration help to add theatrical impact to the disruption.

We will also provide megaphones, signs, chants, and props, but the more bodies, energy, and creativity we bring, the more powerful this will be.

If you’ve never protested before, this is a great time to jump in. If you’re a seasoned disruptor, we need your voice more than ever.

RSVP on IG, FB, Signal, or Discord.

Let’s show Omni that silence is complicity, and we will not be silent.
Animals are suffering. Omni is profiting.
We’re coming for that cruelty. Together.

Worldwide Fur Protest

Date and Time: November 28th @ 1:00 - 3:00 PM

Location: Online

Join us as we make a bold statement to the world: ban all fur!

Through this global day of action, we strive to:

- inspire people to ditch fur
- pressure companies to divest from fur
- urge cities around the world to ban fur

Over 100 million animals suffer and die horrifically due to the fur trade each year.

As consumers, companies, and entire countries ditch fur, now is the time to join the growing movement for a fur-free future.

Join us as we make fur history!
