Street Teamer Heather Rycroft had a short article published in the Young People’s Press. Below is an excerpt from Heather’s article. You can view the full text here.
“What matters to you? Stopping cruelty? Your health? If so, check out www.peta2.com for tons of info on animal abuse and veganism. It provides tips on getting started as a vegetarian, dealing with parents, ideas for activists and the truth about animal exploitation. Get motivated by watching videos of others protesting restaurant slaughterhouse cruelty to fur wearers, or catch a clip of what really goes on with animals raised for meat.”
New Street Team goods were added today, including vegan gelatin and two new bumper stickers. Now there’s even more incentive for all you Street Teamers to get out there and get active for animals!
Our girls on the road with the Warped Tour have been having a ton of fun the past few days. Adam from Loser’s Luck came by the tent to make a PETA2 t-shirt for himself. Mike from Tiger Army also stopped in to show off his PETA2 patch.
Scott from Lars Fredrickson and the Bastards made a visit to the PETA2 table to show his support for animals. Scott stickered everyone who came by to sign up for the PETA2 e-news. Marco from Sugarcult swung by later in the day to hang out with the PETA2 staffers and volunteers and to help hand out literature and free CDs.

Too long to explain here, it's long enough for a novel.
Father loves to farm, be self sustainable, loves to read, he's a antiques/vintage auctioneer, art student, and looks like mr. Rogers. My mother is a Montessori teacher and is amazing with children, all about local organic foods, loves gardening, cooking etc. my sister who is nine years older than me was into indie music and introduced me to all sorts of things at a young age. This all rubbed of on me and from that base I grew into similar things. I'm an INFJ
I'm tall, a geek, nacho - obsessed, I love sewing and Cath Kidston, also I'm vegetarian (wannabe vegan.)
Well let's just say life ain't always beautiful but it's a beautiful ride. I love all my pets and would do anything for them. I have one dog, two cats, a ferret and my babygirl shaymin,(the cutest hedgehog alive) I'm into all different kinds of music. I'm a singer myself and love art.
I love animals about as much as rock, heavy metal, tea, and coffee. Hoping to make a difference and help animals through PETA!!!
I want to get into marketing but not have to rely on people which have different morals and worldviews than I do to hire me. While I'm figuring this out, I want to show everyone what I believe in and spur them into action against injustices.

I am Angela. When I am not helping animals I am listening to music, reading, or playing video games. My spirit animal is a fox and I love nature. What else is there to know? Want to know anything about me, need advice or anything message me :)
