Tapestry

The Animals & Religion Website was created and is maintained by Tapestry (501c3), an intersectional knowledge-generating force founded and directed by Dr. Lisa Kemmerer.

Tapestry is a vanguard knowledge-generating force working on behalf of change-makers: activists, educators, and people of faith. Tapestry works across continents, communities, and social justice concerns to build caring, dignity, and respect for all life and the earth itself.

Through knowledge, Tapestry inspires change, generating and compiling information for change-makers, shared though public presentations, publications, and websites. Tapestry is currently working to build the Animals and Religion Website and plans a website featuring information in Vegan Ethics: AMORE, which explores a litany of moral concerns quelled by choosing vegan.

Religious ethics demand compassion and more than 80% of humanity claims to be religious. Nonetheless, animal activists rarely have the necessary tools to engage from a faith perspective. Tapestry is gathering and sharing this core knowledge for activists and scholars (in animal studies and religious studies), and for people of faith who care about anymals.
