We mentioned the Zombie Rights March to be held at this year’s ComicCon, and it appears it was a great success. FEARnet’s reporter on the scene starts off from a very classic Anti-Zombie position but the earnestness, diversity and friendliness of the marchers makes a big impact, and the resulting piece illustrates beautifully why the [...]

Time is an important thing to keep track of, and the ZRC would dearly love a good Zombie Clock, suitable for helping track our engagements to promote Undead Equality. Sadly this isn’t it: I’m not sure if I like this or not. Don’t get me wrong. Visually it looks pretty damn cool. I’m just not [...]

We’ve talked before on the ZRC blog about the cottage industry catering to those poor, misguided, paranoid souls who are afraid the Zombie Apocalypse is always right around the corner. You know the type. Stockpiling food, blades, ammunition. Wondering what sort of air filtration system their bunker needs to keep out Solanum or Trioxin. Scary [...]

Really, we’ve come to expect a lot of shallow, uninteresting bashing of the Undead, often simply by using words for Undead individuals (like, and most commonly, ‘Zombie’) to describe anything and everything you don’t personally care for. Latest example, more ‘Zombie’ lies/mistruths/distortions in politics. This time about Medicaid, apparently. I’m not hugely interested, for ZRC [...]

Wow. I for one am severely disappointed in Christopher Lloyd for appearing in upcoming Anti-Zombie (and Anti-Demon) film, ‘Dead Before Dawn 3D‘: So basically, let me get this straight. An irresponsible shop owner keeps a magical weapon of mass destruction sitting on a high shelf where it can fall and be released. He allows an [...]

We like to highlight the positives here on the ZRC blog, when we can. Activists, creative types, even retailers doing good work to advance the Zombie Equality cause. This isn’t one of those times. ‘Undead Warehouse’ is very, very Anti-Zombie. They have a tragically wide selection. Vicious, often graphically violent shirts about hating Zombies (take [...]

BuyZombie has a contest up where you can win the opportunity to keep a patently Anti-Zombie board game off the street. Clearly that’s the right thing to do, lest impressionable minds play this: Boo! You and your friends are suddenly surrounded by hordes of very aggressive zombies. But do not fret as we have some [...]

In the ‘Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy’ series there is a minor rockstar character named Hotblack Desatio who spends time ‘dead for tax purposes’, a sort of tax exile where the legal status of being ‘deceased’ saves you money that would otherwise go to the government. I bring this up because, in a roundabout way, [...]

At The Zombie Rights Campaign we support a fully integrated society, Living and Undead working and prospering side by side. Naturally this would extend to full marriage rights for the Undead, and, perhaps more controversially, the right for a Zombie to marry the Living person of their choice (and vice versa). We know that supporting [...]

I really thought we had made some progress with famed comics author Fred Van Lente. I mean, we had a productive dialogue, he gave us some comic books to auction off for charity. It was all good, right? Well, sadly, one must stay vigilant for it’s all too easy to fall off the Zombie Friendly [...]
