Mary Fantaske on intersections between ableism & speciesism

Duration: 15:43
Updated: 28 Oct 2013

Mary Fantaske speaks about the intersectionality between ableism and speciesism at the Human Rights is Animal Rights conference in Guelph on Saturday, October 26, 2013. The conference organizers write: The goal of this event is to compel others to evaluate the systematic exploitation of both human and non-human animals, and how these oppressions relate in our lives and our communities. This conference intends to function as a platform for dialogue, networking and organization with others in creating a more resilient rights liberation movement for all. This conference intends to move beyond the typical boundaries of social justice activism. Integrating advocacy for the rights of nonhuman animals with the rights of humans, in all our diversity, requires sharing and listening about the commonalities in our struggles. The goal of this event is to ultimately develop a more complete understanding of oppression and justice. Creating allies aware of the intersectionality of oppression can afford us more opportunities to collaborate in meaningful and mutually inspiring ways. Our diversity of ideas and experiences offer potential to build a more comprehensive, sustainable and effective movement against oppression. We need to strive for creating safer communities and more responsible allies, in hopes of beginning to truly break down the existing hierarchical power structures, rather than reinforcing them. This event was hosted by Animal Liberation Ontario and OPIRG -- Guelph, collectively. 'Food Not Bombs -- Guelph Chapter' which graciously offered to supply free vegan meals for the attendants throughout the day. Filming and video production: Agnes Cseke

You Please Me - Dragonette
You Please Me - Grand Avenue

Top Dragonette, You Please Me

Wake up I'm all alone in my room
Glad you're gone
Alone is just the way I wanna be
Someone's waking up with you
Someone pretty, someone who you'll do that thing to
That you did to me
It's the only thing that I want lately
I don't miss your company
I just want those hands on me
To touch the places underneath
You can keep me out of your sight, that's alright
You can keep me out of your mind, even though
I know we're done you keep on turning me on
At night time when it's dark outside
I go to where I know you're hiding
Look up at your window from the street
You're up there, where some believe
Finally getting over me
You got something up there that I need
It's the only thing that I've been missing
I don't want your conversation
Come outside here for a second
Pay me some of your attention
You can keep me out of your sight, that's alright
You can keep me out of your mind, even though
I know we're done you keep on turning me on
You can keep me out of your sight, that's alright
You can keep me out of your mind, even though
I know we're done you keep on turning me on
Maybe I want one more kiss
Shouldn't I get one more wish?
Couldn't I just have you back for one more go around
the track?
It's easy, believe me
It's easy, you please me
It's easy
(You keep on turning me on)
You please me
(You keep on turning me on)
It's easy
(You keep on turning me on)
You please me
(You keep on turning me on)
You can keep me out of your sight
(It's alright / You keep on turning me on)
You can keep me out of your mind

Top Grand Avenue, You Please Me

The world is on fire, don't panic
It's just a dream you had last night
You're playing quiet but you're tempted
To go where you have never gone before
Waiting in these crowded lines
For you I'll wait a thousand miles
It's easy, it's easy
I wish I knew how to make it right
And satisfy your broken mind
‘Cause you please me, you please me
When all words have lost their meaning
And you start to lose control of all your feelings
Put your head upon my shoulder
And tell me what it is that you hope for.
Waiting in these crowded lines
For you I'd wait a thousand times
It's easy – oh, it's easy
Wish I knew how to make it right
And satisfy your broken mind
‘Cause you please me, you please me
You play it quiet, but you're tempted
To go where you have never gone before
Waiting in these crowded lines
For you I'd wait a thousand times
It's easy – oh, it's easy
Wish I knew how to make it right
And satisfy your broken mind
