Emily Raap

My animal rights journey started as a junior in high school when I learned about how elephants are abused in the circus and since then I've dedicated my life to fighting for animals. I've traveled the country and educated concert-goers, college students, and elementary students about how animals suffer for food, entertainment, experiments, and clothing. I live with my 2 rescue dogs -- Buddy and Penny -- and my son and husband. I'm passionate about protecting our planet too and studied Environmental Science at UNC Asheville (which is also one of my favorite cities in the country!)
