It is with a saddened heart that we tell you our friend Suzanne Carey, Auckland Animal Liberationist and Direct Actionist passed away on Sunday February the 24th of 2008.
At 1.30am, Suzy lost her battle with a long-term illness.
Suzy was heavily involved in animal liberation group Auckland Animal Action for over 10 years and was active in the activist and direct action movement. Suzy went to every protest she could get to and often traveled around Aotearoa for conferences and actions.
Suzy was often in the background at protests and didn’t subscribe to any political ideology. She said she was only interested in taking action and wasn’t interested in theoretical debate. While others argued tactics endlessly Suzy was out organizing the next weekend’s direct action for Fur Free Auckland campaign.
Suzy was also our friend. We watching far too many movies and too much TV together, we got sick stuffing our mouths with fake meat made-of-who-knows-what at the vegetarian cafés in Auckland City and Penrose. We often went on missions to find Long John Silver vegan chippies, but if closed, we would go to the Burgerie for fatty vegan fast food on K’rd.
Our love to the family, Sandra and Julian, Yvonne, friends…
Love and Solidarity
Auckland Animal Action.
Suzy’s Funeral will be held on Friday 29th of February 2008 at Waikumete Cemetery, Great North Road, Glen Eden (West Auckland).
