People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) president and co-founder Ingrid Newkirk launched her latest tome, The PETA Practical Guide to Animal Rights, at Sublime this past Sunday.Sublime opened its doors early to welcome guests clamoring for Newkirk's newest literary work. Attendees began the evening by sipping organic wine and munching on vegan hors d'oeuvres, including sea caviar flatbread and petit croque monsieurs with barbecue tofu.
Guests then settled into Sublime's private room, where Newkirk--with her signature lighthearted gravity--shared her experiences as an animal activist. She concluded her talk with a short film celebrating the animal kingdom.
Afterward, each lucky guest spoke one-on-one with Newkirk and took home a signed copy of The PETA Practical Guide to Animal Rights (which offers insight on issues such as: eating compassionately; taking a stand against animal testing; making a difference for animals in puppy mills; voting on animal issues; and choosing activities that protect rather than exploit animals). The book is now available at retailers nationwide.
