Instead of scrutinising how horrific this is, that a young Aboriginal man with disability is killed by police in a supermarket, in front of shoppers, the mainstream media uses passive language, Man ‘lost consciousness’ during supermarket arrest’. open.substack.com/pub/amymcqui...

We don’t need to turn our iconic natural wonders into gas fields. We need to prioritise Australians over exports.

Cancelled my Airbnb account today.
Reasons:
1. As stated by Amnesty International, Airbnb's decision to allow listings in illegal settlements on occupied Palestinian territory is "reprehensible and cowardly".
2. Palestinian campaigners have called for a mass boycott of Airbnb.

Palestinians do NOT need the "Axis of resistance"
Palestinians do not owe Syria’s Bashar al-Assad anything. An oppressor cannot be a true ally of a liberation movement.

We always try to be productive & spontaneous, responding to whatever situations we're in. The station began as a way to do something, & now it's developed to allow us to raise awareness about what Palestine & other places in the world are going through. Solidarity is at the core of Radio Alhara.
The founders of Palestinian online station Radio Alhara talk with Resident Advisor about the station's evolution from a project to maintain local connection during COVID quarantine to a hub for global solidarity during the accelerated genocide
