What does it mean to be an activist at just seven years old? In this heartwarming and powerful talk, Porshea Tuli shares her journey of growing up with dozens of furry siblings — dogs, cats, and rabbits — and discovering that animals may not speak our language, but they feel, love, and hurt just like us.With wit, innocence, and wisdom beyond her years, Porshea shows us why animals are “human enough,” how small acts like rescuing a puppy or leaving water for thirsty birds can create ripples of kindness, and why compassion for animals could even lead to a more peaceful world.Through personal stories, everyday activism, and a child’s fearless honesty, this talk is a reminder that you don’t need superpowers to be a superhero — sometimes, all you need is your voice.
