Samuel Baca-Henry

Samuel Baca-Henry is a vegan Animal Liberation activist and author of Lament of Hathor, which recovers ancient voices of protest against animal exploitation. His work shows that advocacy for animals isn't modern—it's ancient, intersectional, and revolutionary.

Drawing on his award-winning philosophy background (University of Chicago), Samuel connects the dots between patriarchy, imperialism, animal, and human oppression. He's given invited talks at major universities including Rutgers, UT Austin, and the University of Utah (co-keynote with philosopher David Chalmers), bringing academic rigor to grassroots advocacy.

Samuel's activism spans from shoveling poop at farmed animal sanctuaries to direct action in the streets for animals and humans.
