25.01.2022 You know who cant panic buy and stockpile household goods? People on low incomes, living week to week on very little cash. Runs on essential items hurt peopl...e in poverty. So, please: stop and think about others before you empty out the supermarket shelves.

24.01.2022 Letting people out of prison right now is the responsible & safe thing to do. Most people are in for minor crimes & many are yet to be sentenced. This means we...ll stop #coronavirusaus spreading & saves thousands of much-needed hospital beds. Sign the petition to Stop COVID-19 Aboriginal Deaths in Custody before its too late > https://buff.ly/2R0cf0G See more

19.01.2022 All of Kangaroo Island is currently under threat. Solidarity with all currently effected and all firefighters who whilst, still unpaid for the most part and underfunded, have have fought this catastrophe.

18.01.2022 Elders from the Gweagal-Bidjigal community today invited Students of Sustainability conference (SoS) attendees, First Nations people from across the continent, ...and other members of the Australian Students Environmental Network (ASEN) to come to their land to listen, learn and strengthen our relationships and capacity to work together into the future. This gathering particularly discussed the upcoming once-in-a-generation mobilisation to protest and disrupt the Governments planned celebrations of 250 years since the start of colonialism and ongoing genocide in so-called australia. On 29 April 1770 Captain Cook came to these shores claiming to have discovered a new continent. 18 years later, on 17 January 1788, the first ship from the first fleet sent by the British Government to colonise this continent arrived. Today, the 17th of January, is the 232nd anniversary of the first boat of the first fleet arriving to these shores. We pay respects to the generations of staunch First Nations people and communities and the resistance movements built in the face of colonial, racist government oppression. This continent was kept in ecological balance by First Nations people for tens of thousands of years, until the colonists arrival here on this day 232 years ago started the Frontier Wars and sparked ecological crisis. In just two and a half centuries of illegitimate, colonial, violent capitalist rule, the continent is now in ecological disarray and barraged by unprecedented bushfires. In 1988, over 30,000 First Nations people and supporters converged in La Perouse to protest the colonial governments celebration of the bicentennial since the first fleets arrival. The australian Government is spending $6.7 million on a replica of the Endeavour ship, which will in April 2020 circumnavigate the continent to celebrate 250 years since Cooks arrival in the Endeavour in April 1770. Drawing inspiration from the 1988 convergence, this year the Gweagal-Bidjigal community are inviting Aboriginal people and allies from all across the continent to converge on their land from 25 April to 3 May 2020. The event, supported by Fighting In Resistance Equally (FIRE) and ASEN, will mark 250 years of Aboriginal resistance since Cook landed at Kamay (Botany Bay), and to send the message that the Endeavour replica is not welcome and the revisionist circumnavigation must be stopped. This always was and always will be Aboriginal land. There can be no climate justice on this continent without justice for First Nations peoples. ASEN members were so grateful and honoured today to be welcomed to Gweagal-Bidjigal land by Aunty Yvonne and her daughter Kim, direct descendants of the warrior Pemulway. After sharing her knowledge, experience and time with us, and making space for the voices of First Nations and other activists from across the continent, we collectively observed a minute of silence in respect for the day, and then Aunty Yvonne took us to show us the place where the Endeavour arrived to her ancestors land. ASEN will be working with First Nations people and communities across the continent in the coming months to help mobilise for Aprils convergence. We encourage community members and activists to get in touch and join the effort to fundraise, organise and mobilise in solidarity with the Gweagal-Bidjigal community and First Nations communities across the continent.

16.01.2022 Anangu traditional owners have blockaded the entrance to Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park in protest of more than 40 passengers who arrived on a Jetstar flight (J...Q667) from the hotspot Brisbane to Yulara at about 10:00 am this morning. The Mutitjulu Community Aboriginal Corporation (MCAC) has been calling for the immediate closure of Uluru, however, the Director of National Parks James Findlay has refused to close the park despite growing fears of tourists arriving from hotspots. The Northern Territory government stated they would prefer any Yulara flight to land in Alice Springs first.

16.01.2022 Today! See you there :)

16.01.2022 Today is not just Valentines Day, its also the anniversary of when Native Hawaiians killed British invader and coloniser Captain James Cook on February 14, 1779.

15.01.2022 A brand new mural! Happy New Year - 2020 "This is offensive!", quipped the anti-graffiti Moonee Valley Council representative as I was finishing up this 11m x 4...m mural somewhere in Melbourne. "What is more offensive?", I replied. "Millions being choked from bush fire smoke in Sydney, or this mural?" I wanted to go on: "And what of the deaths of fire fighters?", but he bantered about the illegality of the piece, and to scare me, was threatening to call the cops (even though I had permission to create it). Either way they would be painting over it asap when they returned with the anti-graffiti vehicle. Lucky the artwork was finished. I imagined continuing the debate QandA style as I drove off: "What is more offensive? PM Scott Morrison ignoring the declaration of many scientists and firefighters that climate change is real and the catastrophe is now!?...And the fact that he refuses to pay all volunteer fire fighters a decent, living wage, while continually attacking the wages of all workers, and berating unemployed and homeless people while newstart barely pays rent? What about how Sydneys NYE fireworks display is going ahead simply because millions of dollars have already been transacted, ignoring the real dangers faced by so many in the Sydney region? What about the fact that Australia is the biggest exporter of coal internationally, continuing to add a great deal of CO2 into the atmosphere, further exacerbating climate change? Where does this offensiveness end? Billions is being spent per year on the imaginary threat of refugees and hundreds of billions on military hardware, while the real, existing, catastrophic terror is literally burning us alive in our loungeroom and workpkace? We know, without a doubt, where this money could be well spent. But market forces are dictating otherwise. Big corporations want their massive profits to continue flowing with little disruption, and within that process, governments are tightly bound, right down to local government transactions that make strangulatory private property laws seem part of nature. The climate change induced fires and floods around the world are pulling these elements further apart and revealing a capitalist system in perpetual crisis. It literally cant sustain us. We have no choice to fight against it before it consumes us and takes away our kids futures. In conclusion, it is not offensive or barbaric at all to fight back. It is extremely logical and smart, and (catastrophically) important. So excuse me if you find this mural offensive." See more
