Urge him not to link his reputation to Perdue's predatory manipulation of children for profit. Children will be drawing replicas of parts of the bodies of dead chickens as if they were manipulating clay or some other inanimate object. In the process they will be rewarded for their internalization of the values of Perdue Farms, that is, animals as objects. Increasing health problems are now being documented in children growing up on greasy chicken nuggets and other artery-clogging poultry products.
Chicken nuggets are unwholesome, unhappy, and unhealthy products.
Perdue Farms has a record of violence, corruption, pollution, and dishonorable business practices including denying estroom access to female employees, thereby forcing them to menstruate and urinate on slaughterhouse floors or get fired, worker intimidation, sexual harassment, environmental pollution, and animal cruelty. In the 1990s, Perdue Farms and the poultry industry blocked legislation that would have added poultry to the 1958 Humane Methods of Slaughter Act. Chickens are deliberately kept alive and tortured with electric shocks during the Perdue slaughter process. Perdue is currently under attack by human rights advocates, religious groups, animal advocates, legislators, OSHA, and environmentalists. Kids need Danny Glover to be a true advocate for children and for the creative spirit.
