“Fox River Grove Middle School is standing education on its head when it cracks down on instructors who teach our kids about kindness and good health,” says PETA President Ingrid E. Newkirk. “Mr. Warwak is exposing the meat industry’s dirty secrets, and his students have every right to know the truth behind their food choices.”

“For the school board to claim that Dave Warwak turned his classroom into a "zone of indoctrination" is not only ironic, but ludicrous. It is clear that the entire school is a zone of indoctrination, complete with posters promoting dairy products and a cafeteria offering a continuous supply of foods derived from terrified and abused animals. The school and its teachers and administrators present this cruelty as normal in an overwhelmingly pervasive way to impressionable children. The school is itself an institution embedded in a culture that uses all its other institutions to do exactly the same thing. Dave Warwak was providing a small counterpoint of awareness, compassion, and sensitivity to this flood of indoctrination to which all children in our culture are routinely subjected and for this he could not be tolerated. That he should be painted by the school board and media as the "indoctrinator" is beyond absurd, and what is astonishing is how difficult this is for most people to comprehend. Dave Warwak was creative and honest in his efforts to help students rise above culturally-imposed attitudes of violence and cruelty toward animals, and because of this he was viewed as dangerous to the status quo. In actuality, he was fulfilling a higher mandate, and for this he deserves respect and honor, not the disrespect and abuse that he has been forced to endure for questioning a culture that is ferocious in its routine cruelty toward billions of animals used for food.”

Fox River Grove School District 3 chooses to ignore the Federal Trade Commission’s ruling against misleading commercial advertising in schools. I am being terminated for my response to the pro-dairy propaganda in the school cafeteria in which, I, as an Art Teacher, was educating students about the power of advertising in the Visual Arts. Specifically, how the Meat and Dairy Industry uses its influence to shape and guide the values and morals of society through indoctrination.

Fox River Grove School District 3 chooses to ignore the 1989 Realities data Warwak presented to the administration (signed for), concerning the Fox River Grove students and their health, namely the diseases which are commonly prevented, consistently improved, and sometimes cured by a low-fat vegetarian diet including but not limited too: Strokes, Heart disease, Osteoporosis, Kidney Stones, Colon cancer, Prostate cancer, Pancreatic cancer, Ovarian cancer, Cervical cancer, Stomach cancer, Endometrial cancer, Breast cancer, Hypoglycemia, Diabetes, Kidney disease, Peptic ulcers, Constipation, Hemorrhoids, Hiatal hernias, Diverticulosis, Obesity, Gallstones, Hypertension, Asthma, Salmonellosis, Trichinosis, Irritable colon syndrome 

In retaliation of Dave Warwak’s performance of his official duties and in an attempt to avoid compliance and/or legal action regarding their neglect in addressing ILSC violations and other Child Endangerment issues, Jackie Krause, Timothy Mahaffy, and the Fox River Grove School District 3 Board of Education Members***, knowingly and willfully, exposed Dave Warwak to hatred, contempt, and ridicule, while Warwak was engaged in the execution of his official duties, in which, said members prevented the defendant from performing his official duties. SB0100 (720 ILCS 5/12-110) (was 720 ILCS 5/12-6)

Below (in red strikethrough text) is a copy of the press release the Fox River Board of Education gave to the press after they had armed police officers escort me off of the school grounds. Most of their version I disputed on record and is unsubstantiated hearsay and lies. Fox River Grove School District #3 willingly chose to ignore my concerns and instead devoted their efforts to terminate my employment.

Fox River Grove School District 3 Board of Education
issues bogus press release

“When the debate is over, slander becomes the tool of the loser”
Socrates

After a long executive session, where Mr. Warwak was again invited to address the Board away from the audience and the media, the Board voted 7-0 to dismiss Warwak. They issued a press release that detailed the reasons for Warwak's termination:

1. Warwak had stopped teaching art and without telling the board, the Principal, the superintendent, or the students’ parents, converted his art classes into classes on veganism and animal rights. The board stressed that Warwak did not merely mention his vegan beliefs during his classes or casually mix in comments about animal rights during art projects, but rather from the beginning of the school year, he dedicated his instruction to preaching to fifth, sixth, seventh, and eighth graders that eating meat, milk, and animal products was bad and that following a vegan lifestyle was good. According to the board, Warwak spent entire classes on veganism and animal rights, telling students that animals were tortured to make the meat they ate, assuring them that they would live ten years longer if they became vegans and having students read aloud from books advocating veganism. He also distributed tracts published by "PETA" and "Vegan Outreach" and directed students to Google terms such as "slaughtering" and "factory farming" which would take them to Web sites with graphic depictions of animals being slaughtered. The board noted that Warwak continued this conduct even after being told by administrators to stop.

2. After converting his art classes into classes on veganism and animal rights, Warwak told his students not to tell their parents or teachers or principal about what he was teaching them in his classes. Warwak told his students that parents would be mad, teachers would be mad, and the principal would be mad, so "let’s keep it a secret."

3. Warwak repeatedly refused to answer questions from administrators and the district’s lawyer about what he had been teaching and what literature he had distributed to students. On Monday, September 10, 2007, Warwak left a meeting set up by the district to interview him regarding parents’ complaints about what was being taught in his art classes. Warwak walked out of that meeting without answering the district’s questions, saying, "I don’t like this at all. It’s not about me and I refuse to participate in this [expletive]."

Board President Pat Hughes said, "Warwak shouldn’t have secretly turned his art classroom into a zone of indoctrination. This is a democracy and other people have a say over the curriculum. Mr. Warwak shouldn't be allowed to impose his personal views on a captive audience."

Board Vice-President Steve Knar said, "The Board respects the right of all employees to follow their own belief systems and respects the diverse opinions of the individuals who make up our school community. This isn’t about whether veganism is good or bad. It’s about the right of the district to be informed about the instruction taking place in the classroom and its ability to control the curriculum. What Mr. Warwak could not do, and remain an employee of the district, was to unilaterally turn his art classes into classes on veganism and animal rights, tell his students not to tell their parents about it, and then refuse to answer the district's questions about what was going on in his classes."

Timothy Mahaffy, as acting Principal, knowingly and willfully prevented Dave Warwak from performing his said duties as described under (105 ILCS 5/27-12)(from Ch. 122, par. 27-12)

Sec. 27-12. Character education. Every public school teacher shall teach character education, which includes the teaching of respect, responsibility, fairness, caring, trustworthiness, and citizenship, in order to raise pupils’ honesty, kindness, justice, discipline, respect for others, and moral courage for the purpose of lessening crime and raising the standard of good character.
(Source: P.A. 94-187, eff. 7-12-05.)

Timothy Mahaffy, Jackie Krause, and the Fox River Grove District 3 Board Members***, knowingly and willfully withheld Moral and Humane Education from teachers of Fox River Grove School District 3 for 8 years, as required under (105 ILCS 5/27-15)(from Ch. 122, par. 27-15)

Sec. 27-15. Moral and humane education - In institute programs. The superintendent of each region and city shall include once each year moral and humane education in the program of the teachers’ institute which is held under his supervision.
(Source: P.A. 79-597.)

Below in red text is their version which I inserted black text in brackets to expose their lies:

After a long executive session, [1/2 hr private meeting] where Mr. Warwak was again invited [Lies! I used my lawful right and requested to speak to the Board. Not again. The only reason they were there was to officially fire me. I was not invited.] to address the Board away from the audience and the media [not my idea - this is how they hide things], the Board voted 7-0 to dismiss Warwak. They issued a press release that detailed the reasons for Warwak's termination: [unsubstantiated bogus lies rife with words designed to trigger emotions and sway public opinion. Words and language like; democracy, belief systems, preaching, zones of indoctrination, secretly, impose, personal views, and captive audience. I in fact denied most of these accusations and was not allowed a chance to face my accusers. Much of the FRG Board of Ed press release is hearsay and flat out-right lies. The media was irresponsible when it used the Board’s bogus press release in newspapers, television, internet, and radio outlets. Their bogus press release was nation wide news and people still believe the way the media and the Board of Education framed the events]

1. Warwak had stopped teaching art
[flat-out lie] and without telling the board [teachers don’t submit lesson plans to the board], the Principal [I told the Principal exactly what I was doing - he participated in the lessons!], the superintendent [she also knew full well of events], or the students’ parents [I told students to learn about it and educate their friends and parents], converted [I incorporated real world issues within the discipline of Art Education] his art classes into classes on veganism and animal rights [Art classes with Art lessons incorporating, advertising, consumerism, animals, veganism, pollution, factory farming, diet, peace, love, compassion, and whatever other real world issue I can connect with Art to get students thinking for themselves about issues that matter to them] The board stressed that Warwak did not merely mention his vegan beliefs during his classes or casually mix in comments about animal rights during art projects, but rather from the beginning of the school year [another flat-out lie - I was fired after day 1 of my "Power of Advertising" project which was the only animal rights issue I brought up only out of their refusal to even discuss the removal of the Milk Mustache posters hanging in the school cafeteria despite the FCC Ruling], he dedicated his instruction to preaching [I am a teacher, not a preacher] to fifth, sixth, seventh, and eighth graders that eating meat, milk, and animal products was bad and that following a vegan lifestyle was good. According to the board, Warwak spent entire classes on veganism and animal rights [once again, this was only one day, this school year], telling students that animals were tortured to make the meat they ate [even though a true statement, these are not my words - unsubstantiated hearsay that the FRG Board of Education is liable for], assuring them that they would live ten years longer if they became vegans and having students read aloud from books [another flat-out lie. I never had them read aloud - I hate when teachers do that - I simply purchased my students non-fiction books, The Food Revolution, as a gift. It was to be taken home and theirs to keep. Some parents had their children burn the books] advocating veganism. He also distributed tracts published by "PETA" and "Vegan Outreach" and directed students to Google terms such as "slaughtering" [out-right lie, but not a bad idea - I never told students to look up "slaughtering"] and "factory farming" which would take them to Web sites with graphic depictions of animals being slaughtered. The board noted that Warwak continued this conduct even after being told by administrators to stop. [lie, they said stop, but refused to put their non-negotiable directive in writing and sent me home (they checked with their lawyer and found they were asking me to do something illegal) and instead thought it easier just to fire me than to discuss the real issues of today’s youth. I was never allowed back in the classroom]

2. After converting
[again, my classes always are Art classes with Art lessons that incorporate the issues of today’s youth] his art classes into classes on veganism and animal rights [and consumerism, advertising (Art), reality, compassion, peace, respect, responsibility, caring, pollution, starvation, the healthcare crisis, war, school shootings, cruelty, environment], Warwak told his students not to tell their parents or teachers or principal about what he was teaching them in his classes. Warwak told his students that parents would be mad, teachers would be mad, and the principal would be mad, so "let’s keep it a secret." [flat-out unsubstantiated lie - I never said "let’s keep it a secret"]

3. Warwak repeatedly refused to answer questions
[they repeatedly refused to answer one single question of mine. I had asked that the Board of Education be present, but they were absent] from administrators and the district’s lawyer about what he had been teaching and what literature he had distributed to students. On Monday, September 10, 2007, Warwak left a meeting set up by the district to interview him regarding parents’ complaints about what was being taught in his art classes. Warwak walked out of that meeting without answering the district's questions, saying, "I don’t like this at all. It's not about me and I refuse to participate in this [expletive]." [the expletive was bullshit and it really was. The 10 September, 2007 meeting was an interrogation in which I was not allowed to ask one single question. They wanted to make this about me to distract from the real issues and ultimately hide their gross dereliction of duties and other egregious crimes against humanity so they may continue their support of the death industries at the poor children’s expense]

Board President Pat Hughes said, "Warwak shouldn’t have secretly turned his art classroom into a zone of indoctrination.
[lies worded to cloud the issues further] This is a democracy [a very corrupt one] and other people [not Vegan Teachers] have a say over the curriculum. Mr. Warwak shouldn't be allowed to impose his personal views on a captive audience." [I wasn't and didn’t, just more slanderous lies carefully crafted to hide the truth]

Board Vice-President Steve Knar said, "The Board respects
[the board has no respect for Vegans] the right of all employees [employees have rights, but the administration ignores them] to follow their own belief systems [the Vegan Diet is built on science, not beliefs] and respects the diverse opinions [diverse, but not including Vegan] of the individuals [the administration has zero respect for teachers] who make up our school community. This isn't about whether veganism is good or bad. [yes, it really is all about how great a Vegan diet is, and all its benefits, but, they want to hide this very much and cloud the issue by trying to make this about me] It’s about the right of the district [it's about the lengths that corrupt administrators will go to in embarrassing and shameful attempts to maintain the statusque at all costs] to be informed [the administration refused to listen to me] about the instruction taking place in the classroom and its ability to control the curriculum. [an open-ended curriculum lacking any subject matter or ideas. A curriculum that only deals with materials. This is how they cloud the issue with things they know nothing about, but have strong attitudes of. They want you to think that Art and the curriculum where abandoned, when these things were never deviated from in the slightest. I tried talking with them many times and they refused to discuss the students’ health and the future of our planet] What Mr. Warwak could not do [was not allowed to do], and remain an employee of the district, was to unilaterally turn his art classes into classes on veganism and animal rights  [Art classes are always Art classes and do not magically lose the Art component when the Art lessons to make Artworks incorporate subject matter or ideas relating to advertising, consumerism, animals, veganism, pollution, factory farming, diet, respect, responsibility, compassion, and whatever other real world issue I can connect with Art to get students thinking for themselves about the real issues that matter very much to them], tell his students not to tell their parents about it [this is the same lie they repeat over and over. I obviously don't keep secrets; however, Fox River School District is desperate to hide their dirty little secrets], and then refuse to answer the district’s questions about what was going on in his classes." [more lies. I tried countless times to bring these issues to my superiors; however, not even once, were my concerns addressed. This is the reason I am being fired. They thought it would be easier to fire me than to have to sit down and talk about the students’ health and the future of our planet and act accordingly to be respectful and take responsibility]

Vegans have respect, responsibility, and love for all - Click Here Nutritional benefits and concerns Further information Nutrition, Foodborne illness, Health concerns associated with red meat. All muscle tissue is very high in protein, containing all of the essential amino acids, However muscle tissue is very low in carbohydrates and contains no fiber [1]. The fat content of meat can vary widely depending on the species and breed of animal, the way in which the animal was raised including what it was fed, the anatomical part of its body, and the methods of butchering and cooking. Wild animals such as deer are typically leaner than farm animals, leading those concerned about fat content to choose game such as venison, despite the increased danger of exposure to chronic wasting disease [2]; however, centuries of breeding meat animals for size and fatness is being reversed by consumer demand for meat with less fat. Animal fat is relatively high in saturated fat and cholesterol, which have been linked to various health problems, including heart disease[1] and arteriosclerosis[2]. Ostrich meat is particularly low in fat and cholesterol. Typical Meat Nutritional Content from 110 grams (4 oz) Source calories protein carbs fat fish chicken breast lamb 250 steak (beef) T-bone The table at right compares the nutritional content of several types of meat. While each kind of meat has about the same content of protein and carbohydrates, there is a very wide range of fat content. It is the additional fat that contributes most to the calorie content of meat, and to concerns about dietary health. A famous study, the Nurses Health Study, followed about one-hundred-thousand female nurses and their eating habits. Nurses who ate the largest amount of animal fat were twice as likely to develop colon cancer as the nurses who ate the least amount of animal fat. US Meat Consumption Economic Research Service/USDA.In response to health concerns about saturated fat and cholesterol, consumers have altered their consumption of various meats. A USDA report points out that consumption of beef in the United States between 1970-1974 and 1990-1994 dropped by 21%, while consumption of chicken increased by 90%. Meat can transmit certain diseases. Undercooked pork sometimes contains the parasites that cause trichinosis or cysticercosis[4][5]. Chicken is sometimes contaminated with Salmonella enterica[6] disease-causing bacteria. Ground beef can be contaminated during slaughter with disease-causing Escherichia coli O157:H7 deriving from the intestinal tract if proper precautions are not taken. One of the five basic tastes sensed by specialized receptor cells on the human tongue is Umami, or savoriness, often described as meaty taste. Red meat and white meat Red meat is darker-coloured meat, as contrasted with white meat. The exact definition varies, but the meat of adult mammals, such as beef, mutton, and horse is invariably considered red, while domestic chicken and rabbit are invariably considered white. In vitro and Imitation meat, In vitro meat Various forms of imitation meat have been created to satisfy some vegetarians taste for the flavor and texture of meat, there is also some speculation about the possibility of growing in vitro meat from animal tissue. Nutrition wise, imitation meat is comparable to animal meat, however they rarely contain the same levels of saturated fat and can often contain valuable minerals and vitamins while still containing approximately the same levels of protein as animal meats.

In the end, this comes down to a very simple set of circumstances and facts.

I was a tenured teacher in the state of Illinois, who for over 8 years never received a written warning for anything.

The Peep project [http://inslide.com/respect/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=31] and Art show [http://veganica.com/artist/category.php?catid=654] was an attempt to get students to be kind towards animals and ultimately each other. When I saw it offended the adults, I dismantled my Art show and discontinued all projects involving animals for the remainder of the 2006-2007 School year.

The Fox River Grove SD #3 Board of Education spends time transcribing podcasts and filing motions to use against me though. Veganica [http://veganica.com/artist/blog.php?artistid=185&focus=783] has something to say about this also.

The Milk Mustache’ posters still hang in the cafeteria where I once worked. The same school that made me take my Art show down.

This year, when I tried discussing the Milk Mustache’ posters, I was told this was not to be discussed and furthermore, I could not do any projects that involve animals. I said I would have a hard time doing that and I need to see that in writing, otherwise I am legally bound to under Illinois character education laws. They said they would have to meet with their lawyer and discuss whether they can put their wishes in writing, and so they sent me home for the day. That was my last day in school. Instead of letting me teach kindness and compassion towards animals to the children, they chose to fire me as they were unable to legally put their non-negotiable orders in writing. This is the bottom line.

Fox River Grove SD #3 Board of Education members voted 7-0 to terminate me and issued the above slanderous release.

During the closed door meeting on September 24th, Fox River Grove Superintendent, Jackie Krause began to laugh uncontrollably when it was noted that Warwak had received death threats and that there was a Chicago Tribune article [http://inslide.com/sweet.htm] that has Warwak on a list of people to be tasered. The same transcripts that contain discussions of the children’s health and their total disregard of the issues I brought forth. They were to busy laughing at the thought of hurting/firing me. After my allotted 1/2 hour was up, armed police (as if I was dangerous) escorted me off the school grounds while the media was there taking pictures. Later, the Board issued their pre-scripted bogus press release to complete the picture. These are the same administrators who yell at their teachers and bully them, and in the same breath, ask their teachers to teach the students not to bully, laugh at, hurt, or intimidate others. These are the lengths that administrators will go to to protect their positions which enable them to force their religious views and subsequent dogma on generations of innocent children. These are the lengths administrators will go to maintain the statuesque and hide Humane Education from teachers and students, even knowing that, Humane Education coupled with a Vegan school lunch will end school shootings, wars, solve the healthcare crisis and heal/save the earth.

Respect, responsibility, and love for all

Fox River Grove police officers escort art teacher Dave Warwak out of Fox River Grove Middle School on Monday after District 3 school board members terminated his employment. District officials say Warwak turned his classroom into sessions on veganism and animal rights, and then told students to keep it a secret. (Justin Runquist photo)
[here are those familiar lies again]

“There is only one good, knowledge, and one evil, ignorance”
Socrates

The Fox River Grove SD #3 Board of Education signed for the receipt of the 1989 Realities data listed below. The Board knows of the devastating effects of their decision to ignore the students’ health and future wellbeing and instead maintain the statuesque at all costs.

Before a teacher may be dismissed for remediable conduct, he must receive a written warning to cease that conduct, but a teacher may be immediately dismissed for irremediable conduct. 105 ILCS 5/34-85 (West 1996).

The Board of Education refused to discuss these issues with me - in writing [1], which the entire board (each and every board member) signed for the appeal [2] which included the original 1989 Realites which I wanted to discuss with Mahaffy

Also, "We hold the concept was not intended to apply to criminal conduct which has no legitimate basis in our society. Teachers, as leaders and role models, with their education and background, have the duty to implant basic societal values and qualities of good citizenship in their students. To claim that such conduct was remediable distorts the thrust and purpose of the rule. Criminal activity of this nature is conduct which cannot be remedied by a warning." McBroom, 144 Ill. App. 3d at 473-74, 494 N.E.2d at 1198."

I did ask for something in writing (which they would not do) that says, I am not allowed to work with animals anymore, but, they could not do that, so they sent me home. That was the last time I was in school. Too, I have had no insubordination in the full 8 years at that school

c) Other pretrial motions may be resolved prior to the hearing at the discretion of the hearing officer, provided that no motion shall be resolved prior to the hearing that would result in a default judgment against the tenured teacher.

You will find it feels wonderful not participating in the meat-eating world’s murderous secrets. Vegans have nothing to hide and everything to gain by changing the World now. Don't believe their lies. They say, We are not ready yet. Maybe in a hundred years. Again, do not believe their lies. We will never be ready and it is now or never. Just like Abe, only one better - I feel good when I do good. I feel bad when I am silent. Silence is complicity. Don't you wish someone let you know the truth when you were young? At least to know they have a choice? I would have wanted that. It took me 43 years of trusting the ones I loved - the world. Some people live and die with never knowing. The World hides it, just like the people we love lied to us about Santa. Christmas and the World was never the same - seemed cold and heartless - until we found the truth and went Vegan.

Timothy Mahaffy, Jackie Krause, and the Fox River Grove District 3 Board Members***, Illinois State Board of Education,

In direct response to Fox River Grove School District 3 letter of termination received on September 27, 2007, a hearing is now officially requested as an appeal to the wrongful termination of Dave Warwak per ILSC 105 in which a hearing on the below charges before disinterested hearing officers on a date no less than 15 nor more than 30 days after the enactment of the motion. The secretary of the school board shall forward a copy of the notice to the State Board of Education. Within 5 days after receiving this notice of hearing, the State Board of Education shall provide a list of 5 prospective, impartial hearing officers. Each person on the list must be accredited by a national arbitration organization and have had a minimum of 5 years of experience directly related to labor and employment relations matters between educational employers and educational employees or their exclusive bargaining representatives. No one on the list may be a resident of Fox River Grove, IL.

Fox River Grove School District 3 chose to ignore the Federal Trade Commission’s ruling against misleading commercial advertising in schools. I am being terminated for my response to the pro-dairy propaganda in the school cafeteria in which, I, as an Art Teacher, was educating students about the power of advertising in the Visual Arts. Specifically, how the Meat and Dairy Industry uses its influence to shape and guide the values and morals of society through indoctrination. Charges, not limited to, but include the following:

In retaliation of Dave Warwak’s performance of his official duties and in an attempt to avoid compliance and/or legal action regarding their neglect in addressing ILSC violations and other Child Endangerment issues, Jackie Krause, Timothy Mahaffy, and the Fox River Grove School District 3 Board of Education Members***, knowingly and willfully, exposed Dave Warwak to hatred, contempt, and ridicule, while Warwak was engaged in the execution of his official duties, in which, said members prevented the defendant from performing his official duties. SB0100 (720 ILCS 5/12-110) (was 720 ILCS 5/12-6)

Veganism also strict or pure vegetarianism is a philosophy and lifestyle that seeks to exclude the use of animals for food, clothing, or any other purpose.[1][2] Vegans do not use or consume animal products of any kind.[3] The most common reasons for becoming a vegan are ethical commitment or moral convictions concerning animal rights, the environment, or human health, and spiritual or religious concerns.[4][5][2] Of particular concern are the practices involved in factory farming and animal testing, and the intensive use of land and other resources required for animal farming. Various polls have reported vegans to be between 0.2%[4] and 1.3%[6] of the U.S. population, and between 0.25%[5] and 0.4%[7] of the UK population. The Times estimated in 2005 that there were 250,000 vegans in Great Britain. Vegan diets are a subset of vegetarian diets, which are credited with lowering the risk of colon cancer, heart attack, high blood cholesterol, high blood pressure, prostate cancer, and stroke.[8] However, vegan diets can be low in levels of calcium, iodine, and vitamins B12 and D. Vegans are therefore encouraged to plan their diet and take dietary supplements as appropriate. The word vegan, pronounced[help] /'vi?g?n/,[10] was originally derived from vegetarian in 1944 when Elsie Shrigley and Donald Watson, frustrated that the term vegetarianism had come to include the eating of dairy products, founded the UK Vegan Society.[11] They combined the first three and last two letters of vegetarian to form vegan, which they saw as the beginning and end of vegetarian.[11][12] The British Vegan Society defines veganism in this way The word veganism denotes a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude - as far as is possible and practical - all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of humans, animals and the environment. In dietary terms it denotes the practice of dispensing with all products derived wholly or partly from animals. Other vegan societies use similar definitions. Data regarding the number of vegans is available in some countries. A 2002 Time/CNN poll found that 4% of American adults consider themselves vegetarians, and 5% of self-described vegetarians consider themselves vegans, which implies that 0.2% of American adults are vegans.[4] A 2006 poll conducted by Harris Interactive in the United States listed specific foods and asked respondents to indicate which items they never eat, rather than asking respondents to self-identify. The survey found that of the 1,000 adults polled 1.4% never eat meat, poultry, fish, seafood, dairy products, or eggs and were therefore essentially vegan in their eating habits. The survey also found that about 1.4% of men and 1.3% of women have vegan diets. In 2002, the UK Food Standards Agency reported that 5% of respondents self-identified as vegetarian or vegan. Though 29% of that 5% said they avoided all animal products, only 5% reported avoiding dairy products.[5] Based on these figures, approximately 0.25% of the UK population follow a vegan diet. In 2005, The Times estimated there were 250,000 vegans in Britain, which suggests around 0.4% of the UK population is vegan.[7] However, a 2007 survey for DEFRA into the UK population attitudes and behaviour towards the environment found that 2.24% of the population identified themselves as vegan.[16] In the same study, vegetarians who did not also eat chicken or fish made up 2.7% of the population. The DEFRA study also indicated that slightly more men than women are vegan, that more vegans live 16-29 were vegan more often duce

It’s a sad day when a teacher is punished for telling students the truth: that by going vegetarian they will dramatically improve their health while saving animals from cruelty so extreme it would warrant felony-level cruelty charges in the state of Illinois if the victims were dogs and cats, rather than chickens, pigs, and cows. In a time of growing violence in schools, a teacher who is bringing a message of compassion should be applauded, not punished. Students in every school should have teachers like Mr. Warwak to tell them that the “chicken nuggets” they consume in the cafeteria were once living, breathing animals who were crammed into filthy sheds and pumped full of drugs before having their throats slit while still conscious.

Mr. Warwak was also apparently distributing copies of John Robbins’ book “The Food Revolution”, which documents not just the cruelty of the meat industry, but also the environmental and health benefits of a vegetarian diet. In these days of skyrocketing childhood obesity, hopefully Mr. Warwak’s students will take this health message to heart: according to the American Dietetic Association, a vegan diet is appropriate for all ages and vegans have lower rates of heart disease, cancer, diabetes and obesity than meat-eaters.

Taiji, Japan loves their children more than
Fox River Grove, USA cares about theirs


When I heard that Dave Warwak was fired from Fox River Grove Middle School in Illinois for his attempts to teach Humane Education, I thought about Socrates who was executed thousands of years ago for his teachings. That ancient Greek philosopher was accused of “corrupting the youth.”

I thought how any attempt to teach the truth to youth seems always to be met with opposition and resistance by those who are really corrupt and want to keep the status quo at any cost.

Dave Warwak uses his sense of humor and his artistic talent to help make this a kinder and more gentle world. Isn’t this exactly what the world needs?

“On some positions, Cowardice asks the question, "Is it safe?" Expediency asks the question, "Is it politic?" And Vanity comes along and asks the question, "Is it popular?" But Conscience asks the question "Is it right?" And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular, but he must do it because Conscience tells him it is right”
Martin Luther King, Jr.

What is Humane Education?

Humane education makes the acquisition of relevant knowledge, skills, and commitment to living ethically, sustainably, and peaceably on this planet the very purpose of education. It does this by infusing the curricula at all levels of education with meaningful information, inspiration, and tools for creating a safe and humane world for all.

Humane education examines the challenges facing our planet, from human oppression and animal exploitation to materialism and ecological degradation. It explores how we might live with compassion and respect for everyone: not just our friends and neighbors, but all people; not just our own dogs and cats, but all animals; not just our own homes, but also the earth itself, our ultimate home.

Humane education helps raise a generation that cares, that realizes that what we do matters, not just to ourselves but also to everyone our lives touch; a generation that understands the connections between both our personal and cultural choices and the fate of other people, other species, and the Earth, and takes responsibility for creating a better world. Humane education achieves these goals by inspiring people to identify the values that will guide them through life and by teaching them the process of embodying these values in the face of complex problems and needs.

The birth of humane education as a national effort dates back to 1915. In that year, “Be Kind to Animals Week” was inspired Dr. William O’Stillman, leader of the American Humane Association. AHA’s primary goals were: visiting local schools to promote the development of humane education and publicizing the good works of the nation’s humane societies.

Quality humane education uses a four-element approach that includes:

• Providing accurate information about the interrelated issues of human rights, environmental preservation, animal protection, and culture. • Teaching critical thinking so students can discern fact from opinion and resist forms of manipulation, whether from advertising, media, peers, or social norms. • Inspiring the 3 Rs of reverence, respect, and responsibility so students will have both the passion for, and the commitment to, bringing about positive change. • Offering choices for both individual decision-making and group problem-solving so that students can become part of a growing effort to develop sustainable, peaceful, and humane systems by which to live.

"This is not just about diet. Don't believe everything you see. The world is an illusion. Wake up. There are many things all around us made from animals that we never notice. We're so disconnected; we don't even notice this right in front of our face three times a day. When we open our circle of compassion to all, we grow as a people and our treatment of each other and others improves. It really is about peace, love, and compassion for all"

“We must rapidly begin the shift from a "thing-oriented" society to a "person-oriented" society. When machines and computers, profit motives and property rights are considered more important than people, the giant triplets of racism, materialism, and militarism are incapable of being conquered” Martin Luther King, Jr.

Persecuting Men of Vision

A book burning was held recently. Welcome to the new United States of America, a place in which Homeland Security means protecting our children against subversive ideas such as the promotion of compassion to animals. Such as the vegetarian lifestyle.

A vegan teacher dared to distribute books by John Robbins to his students. Those books were joyously burned at a barbecue in which animals were roasted by members of an Illinois community. What was his crime?

Let me quote Mrs. Lovett in the Johnny Depp movie, Sweeney Todd, brilliantly directed by Tim Burton. When asked what crime a barber was prosecuted for and transported away for a life of hard labor in a ship’s galley, she responded, “His crime? Foolishness.”

In real-life 21t century terms, Dave Warwak’s middle school crime was to inspire his art students (just as Peter Max once did) that compassion to animals and people was a blessing and not a crime.

Dave’s website tells the story of his tormenting experience and firing by the school board: http://inslide.com

Vegan radio has an interesting perspective on Dave’s experiences. You can listen to that archived show: http://veganradio.com

Dave Warwak took the burdens of the world upon his own shoulders. Like many men of wisdom and courage throughout history who have been honored by those who are touched by greatness, Dave has been persecuted for society’s sins.

I cannot do anything other than compare Dave’s continuing struggle to Galileo.

Long ago, Galileo turned his attention to a new frontier, and in doing so, angered religious leaders. By placing lenses inside of a long tube, Galileo’s primitive telescope allowed him to discover four moons revolving around the planet Jupiter. His invention was destroyed and Galileo imprisoned. Man’s laws gave this fanatic and visionary two choices: remain in prison or recant his discovery and previous testimony. Galileo had no choice but to exist in a world in which his truth became a threat to the men of his time. Dispelling myths has always been dangerous to one’s health. Dave refuses to betray his values or his mission. Welcome this new vegan visionary into a movement badly in need of heroes. Dave’s personal email: dave@inslide.com

Veganism also strict or pure vegetarianism is a philosophy and lifestyle that seeks to exclude the use of animals for food, clothing, or any other purpose. Vegans do not use or consume animal products of any kind. The most common reasons for becoming a vegan are ethical commitment or moral convictions concerning animal rights, the environment, or human health, and spiritual or religious concerns. Of particular concern are the practices involved in factory farming and animal testing, and the intensive use of land and other resources required for animal farming. Various polls have reported vegans to be between 0.2 and 1.3 of the U.S. population, and between 0.25 and 0.4 of the UK population. The Times estimated in 2005 that there were 250,000 vegans in Great Britain. milk, allergies, alzheimers, anti dairy, antibiotics, arthritis, asthma, bacteria, bgh, blood, bovine growth  hormone, bovine, breast cancer, breast feeding, bst, butter, calcium, calories, cancer, cheese, cholesterol, cjd, conspiracy, cow, cows, cruetzfeld, dairy, diabetes, disease, e. coli, education, encephalitis, fat, fda, food and drug administration, fraud, ge, genetically  engineered, heart homogenisation, hormone, igf-1, insulin growth factor, leukemia, lung, mad cow disease, meningitis, national institutes of  health, nih, osteoporosis, poison, pus, rbst, robert cohen, science, scientific fraud, sids, somatic cells, sudden infant death, virus, yogurt Vegan diets are a subset of vegetarian diets, which are credited with lowering the risk of colon cancer, heart attack, high blood cholesterol, high blood pressure, prostate cancer, and stroke. However, vegan diets can be low in levels of calcium, iodine, and vitamins B12 and D. Vegans are therefore encouraged to plan their diet and take dietary supplements as appropriate. Various polls and research conducted during the 1990s put the percentage of Swedish residents being vegan at between 0.27 and 1.6 of the entire population. A study of the eating patterns of Swedish children of ages 4, 8 and 11 by the Swedish Nutrition Department found that about 1 of the children were vegetarian, less than 1 were lacto-vegetarians, but found no children to be vegans. estimates there to be between 250,000 and 460,500 vegans in Germany, or between 0.3 and 0.5 of the German population. The Netherlands Association for Veganism estimates there to be approximately 16,000 vegans in the Netherlands, or around 0.1 of the Dutch population. The term animal product in a vegan context refers to any material derived from animals for human use. Notable animal products include meat, poultry, seafood, eggs, dairy products, honey, fur, leather, wool, and silk. Common animal by-products include gelatin, lanolin, rennet, whey, beeswax and shellac. Animal ingredients can be found in countless products and are used in the production of-though not always present in the final form of-many more many of these ingredients are esoteric, also have non-animal sources, and especially in non-food products may not even be identified. Although some vegans attempt to avoid all these ingredients, Vegan Outreach argues that it can be prohibitively expensive and time-consuming to shun every minor or hidden animal-derived ingredient, and therefore that doing what is best for preventing suffering is more important than identifying and excluding every animal ingredient. Although honey is by definition an animal product, some vegans consider its use and the use of other insect products as silk to be acceptable. Sows at an intensive pig farm.

Do they think we are stupid? Cartoon by Martha Rosenberg

“The moon cries in loneliness as today’s child chooses to stay inside glued to an electronic box, compartmentalized inside a temperature controlled facade, instead of going out in to the world, exploring caves, swimming with turtles, discovering nature’s beauty and perfection, caring a broken wing, feeding fish, finding real friends, friends who help the child as much or more than the other” Warwak
