John Morlino, Founder of The ETHIC

A note from The ETHIC’s founder, John Morlino:

As we look around the world today, we can’t help but notice that violence toward both humans and animals has become, for many people, a socially acceptable form of human behavior. But it doesn’t have to be that way.

I founded The ETHIC to inspire and empower people to embrace the principles of unconditional compassion. The talks and presentations you’ll find on this website may be divided into different topics, but, ultimately, each one reflects a single goal: To create a world where all beings live free from violence and oppression.

On this site, you’ll find articles and presentations about animal rights, human rights (with a particular emphasis on the genocide in Darfur), unconditional compassion, and gun violence, as well as observations on the nature of being human.
