Vegan Schindler's List actor Jochen Nickel supports PETA in this new moving video in which he plays a grandfather walking his grandson through an abandoned factory farm. One of many shut down when humans stopped eating animal flesh. This is what he says as he meanders in and out of the slaughter houses.
Who are we?
What defines us?
We pretended they could not feel
What was it that made us so blind?
Our compassion buried beneath selfishness
Who gave us the right?
Their screams still echo in my ears
The smell of their fear stuck in my nose
In my memories, I see their pleading eyes
Their blood on our hands
On our plates
No water will wash it away
No eternity will make it fade
And one day we woke up
We decided that animals must no longer be products
When we realised that every heart feels
And you- you are HOPE.
