Animal Entitlement to Life
Biologically speaking, life is an endless chemical balancing act. When a population of a plant or animal species fluctuates, at least one other species is directly disturbed, while many others become indirectly influenced. With this general truth in mind, one could logically conclude that all living beings share equal value in the planetary scheme. Each living being on Earth has its own niche in the biosphere, down to the smallest microorganisms. Our food chain quite literally is a circular cycle of life. Plants are eaten by animals which are eaten by larger animals. Feces from the animals helps fertilize the soil to grow more plants to sustain plant-eating life. It is a continuous system of locked interdependence. Yet, when it comes to the rights of animals in domesticated, commercial, scientific, or even natural wildlife settings, some humans attempt to argue the idea that they are not deserving of basic rights. In a society of intelligent beings that are evolving on various levels, it is time that humanity come to a consensus that all conscious living beings are entitled to pursue a life free from unwarranted cruelty and neglect.

They rest quietly, unobtrusively, until called upon to sprinkle into a sauce or dust over bread. But for two millennia, these minute shavings of plants mounted epic journeys, founded empires, overthrew dynasties, rewired economies. Spices are not just flavor—they are history, medicine, and memory reduced to pinches and handfuls.

Bagram is once again the focal point of power narratives.
