DeKalb – DeKalb native Christina Cho will receive a prestigious award this Saturday at a star-studded People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals or PETA 30th anniversary gala in L-A. For nearly 2-decades at a moment's notice Cho has dropped everything and traveled anywhere in the world to protest cruelty to animals in the meat, dairy, and fur industries. Cho is a colorful figure she'll strip down to NOTHING but body paint if she believes it'll further PETA's cause. A warning to listeners, some of the sounds and descriptions in this story may be disturbing.
