Animals Peta and Syrian Refugees

dior: PETA spokesman Andrew Bernstein said in the letter We saw the numerous comments from fans who were disappointed to see you wearing fur at the Dior event last week, according to Hamilton Spectator. Like us they wish you would please retire your furs and instead choose a look that kills but doesn't actually kill anyone. People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals PETA sent a letter to the 'Disturbia' singer criticising her for wearing a calf-length Christian Dior fur coat at the Dior Cruise 2018 fashion show and pleaded with her to give up her fur coats and donate them to people who need it such as Syrian refugees. In addition we'd like to request that you please consider donating your furs to us. In the past we've sent furs to Syrian refugees and to homeless shelters which has an impact on 'as many lives as possible in a positive way' as you said so eloquently in your Harvard Humanitarian Award acceptance speech. Every fur item causes a tremendous amount of pain and suffering to the foxes, minks and coyotes who are beaten, electrocuted, gassed and often skinned alive by the fur industry - and fur production takes a toll on humans as well.
