We talked recently on the blog about the odd and stunningly hateful request under a Freedom of Information law for information how how Leicester would respond to a ‘zombie attack’. Given that, this was pleasant follow-up news: The story became a hit on social networking sites, and prompted Mr Dixon to organise Saturday’s event on [...]

I suppose it’s nice when people tell us flat-out that they’re Zombie-bashing Living Supremacists who have fallen for the outmoded stereotypes about the Differently Animated, but these hateful memes still hurt our clients: We all go through life a little clueless. Sometimes we don’t learn things about ourselves until they’re brought to our attention. For [...]

Seriously; it’s just as the post title says. A female police officer, allegedly doing counter-terror work, plods flat-footedly around a ship shooting unarmed Differently Animated civilians in the back: Never once in this gameplay trailer do the Differently Animated show the least sign of hostility; it’s police brutality, plain and simple. Outrageous! What’s next, rounding [...]

Ah, the noble and humble Freedom of Information request; how much government inaction, sloth, corruption and malfeasance has it uncovered? Far too much to estimate I’d say. Still, opening the books of government to every Tom, Dick and Harry also occasionally means opening them to whackos who’ve read too much Max Brooks and seen too [...]

The Zombie Rights Campaign went to Chicago yesterday, well, the greater Chicago area (Schaumburg) for a DVD signing and release event by the ’3 Slices of Life’ cast. But first we had to prepare our inducements for Zombie Friendly behavior in the future; delicious, homemade chocolate chip cookies. (I was tempted to just make one [...]

The ZRC’s twitter feed exploded yesterday with news of a controversial protest of enormously unpopular and markedly Anti-Zombie Governor Scott Walker yesterday. There were a lot of quite frankly hysterical accusations that the protesters, dressed up as Zombies, had ‘shouted down’ the governor at an event for the Special Olympics. Of course, nothing could be [...]

We mentioned this fun event before on the blog, a fun chance for the Undead to get out, have a Tiki themed party and enjoy themselves. Here’s a quick update to note that the event went off without violence or disruption, and hey, there are fun photos to be gazed upon as well. Sorry we [...]

Really, I wonder what’s up with Europe. They seem to be going more than a little deranged with their Zombie-bashing of late, which we’ve talked about here on the ZRC recently (as well as their oppression of even those who resemble Zombies a bit too much): The Netherlands France Sweden Germany What do all these [...]

I’ve talked previously about how the Zombie Rights Movement could take inspiration, if not exactly tactical advice, from the world of comic book superheroes the ‘X-Men’. How perhaps the best method for those who are Different to change the minds of the general fearful mass of humanity might be to simply, and visibly, do good [...]

Here at The ZRC we produce a lot of Zombie Friendly, positive imagery of the Zombie Community to help further peaceful coexistence and mutual understanding between the Undead and the Living. Some others out there have very different goals, however. Witness this vicious Anti-Zombie propaganda poster from bizarre alternate history site LostZombies.com: Odious, isn’t it? [...]
