Welcome to Our Henhouse. This is Marianne Sullivan. And this is Jasmine Singer. We are so happy you're joining us this week. I love your interview this week. Jasmine's guest is Anna Bradley, and she's the executive director of Sentient Media, which is a nonprofit journalism

organization. And they are trying to create transparency around the role of animals in our daily

lives. I mean, if there's anything this movement needs more than anything else, it's transparency.

If people knew more about what was going on with animals, of course, people do look away,

but, you know, they're not going to let them look away.

So they're trying to get animals into the news.

That is super important work.

And Jasmine, I know that you were also blown away by this interview.

I felt you really learned a lot.

Yeah, I'm very in awe of sentient media and am very honored to be on their advisory board.

I really enjoyed the fact that Anna talked to me a little bit about how they're trying to work with writers to get these articles placed in mainstream journalism, outlets, as well as to get the SEO up, up, up, of Google Analytics, things like that so that the articles that are searchable when you're looking for animal rights stories or if you type in something like, is factory farming bad?

Is animal rights focused in its nature?

And on this week's bonus segment, I'll be continuing this chat with Anna.

I think you're going to love it.

As always, if you're a flock member, you will get a link to the bonus segment in your email on the Tuesday after this podcast episode goes up.

Or you can always find it on the flock Facebook group.

If you are not yet a member of the flock, and if you can swing it, then join us for $10 a month at our henhouse.org slash donate.

And of course, if you're a flock member, please also join us for our flock Friday Zoom calls at 4 p.m. Eastern, which I decided since we have such an international

audience, I should also put the time in Greenwich Mean Time, so that's 9 p.m. Greenwich Meantime. Whether we

have a guest or just have a chat amongst ourselves, we always end up talking about how to shift

our activism as well as how to take care of ourselves. And, you know, times are getting a little better.

They are getting a little better.
