Arkangel (magazine)

Arkangel was a British-based bi-annual animal liberation magazine, first published in the winter of 1989. The magazine, which was sold internationally, covered global aspects of underground and overground animal rights campaigning, and promoted a vegan lifestyle.^[1] The magazine ceased publication in 1999.^[2]

The magazine was the idea of Ronnie Lee, the founder of the Animal Liberation Front (ALF).^[3] While in prison, he regularly received letters of support and details of unreported actions by ALF activists. Lee decided to publish these in the form of a magazine, with the first edition put together by Vivian Smith.^[4] The magazine continued to be written largely by activists associated with the British ALF.^[5]
