The following video was produced by The Kerulos Center for Nonviolence, 2023.
The work includes GLORIA by Vivaldi, photos of Karen with her beloved sanctuary birds, and “Her First Dustbath,” a poem Karen wrote inspired by watching her chickens dustbathing here in Machipongo.
Founded in 1990 by Karen Davis, United Poultry Concerns is the world’s foremost non-profit organization dedicated to promoting the respectful treatment of domestic fowl. UPC runs a haven for chickens in Machipongo, Virginia, and also teaches people about the egg and chicken meat industries, the natural lives of free chickens, the pleasures and benefits of human-chicken companionship, and alternatives to chicken farming and the use of chickens in education and scientific experimentation. – Dr. Annie Potts, Chicken, 2012
