The Forum reflects on humanity’s rapacious disregard for and commodification of our fellow creatures. Eileen Crist's opening essay illuminates the historical, philosophical, and political dimensions, arguing that nurturing solidarity with (other) animals stands as a key moral and strategic imperative for a Great Transition. Panel 1 elaborates her conceptual framework, and Panel 2 propounds actions for transformative change.
