advocate and make noise!

I am saddened and horrified not only by the real life genocide and oppression we have playing out in Palestine right now, but also with the blatant censorship that is happening in the Australian arts industry.

Those who know about the history of oppression and genocide, speak up and get silenced, like First Nations Author Karen Wyld who lost her Fellowship for tweeting about Palestine.

I stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people. I stand in solidarity with the Indigenous people who have also experienced genocide and oppression. I stand in solidarity with Karen Wyld for speaking up for those who can't speak for themselves. I stand in solidarity with Michelle De Kretser who used her Stella speech win to speak up and inspire! I stand in solidarity with all those wonderful people that show up on my feed and advocate and speak up. @TessWoods and @paddyoreilly.writer and @randaafattah 

Tess Woods has a link on her linktree to write to the PM which I did. I have donated to the Palestine Children's Fund.

Advocate where and how you can!
