Animal Rights
Bailey is outspoken on the subject of animal rights and has lent her likeness to many PETA campaigns. She also once appeared caged in a makeshift battery hen enclosure as part of a campaign for the Human Battery Cage. The rights to sit in the cage with Bailey and Lindsay McDougall (guitarist for Australian punk band Frenzal Rhomb), were auctioned off on eBay by Animal Liberation NSW. Imogen has also just launched a new project, imforanimals.com, which focuses on drawing attention to the abuse and cruelty towards animals.

Famous quotes containing the words animal and/or rights:
“The boxer’s ring is the enjoyment of the part of society whose animal nature alone has been developed.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“We live in a highly industrialized society and every member of the Black nation must be as academically and technologically developed as possible. To wage a revolution, we need competent teachers, doctors, nurses, electronics experts, chemists, biologists, physicists, political scientists, and so on and so forth. Black women sitting at home reading bedtime stories to their children are just not going to make it.”
—Frances Beale, African American feminist and civil rights activist. The Black Woman, ch. 14 (1970)
