I hate how every grieving and heartbroken Palestinian in Gaza has to have a camera in their face. I hate that it’s the only way the world will even begin to humanise us. And still it’s not enough.

Start of the Unimelb for Palestine encampment calling for University of Melbourne to divest from Lockheed Martin, Boeing, BAE Systems and all companies supporting Israel's genocide in Gaza

A whole lot of people who've spent years calling the younger generation 'snowflakes' now apparently want armed guys in riot gear to protect them from teenagers sitting peacefully on the ground

Today I saw a photo of an infant who had to be pulled out of the corpse of her mum. Orphaned before her first breath - her family brutally murdered. What fucking world is this. What else is there to say. Free Palestine.

Despite being a decorated serviceman, my grandfather Stewart Murray was denied the Soldier Settlement Land grant typically afforded soldiers. It was a blunt reminder of how little had changed in his time away.

“Every day, a father walks under bombardment to feed us. A mother stands against bulldozers and tanks to protect her daughter… A grandson carries his grandmother and never thinks of leaving her behind for even a moment. A sister pulls her brother out from under the rubble”

By Palestinian poet Najwan Darwish.

Real energy and political clarity at the Gaza encampment at University of Sydney, in solidarity with Palestinians and the global Gaza solidarity movement. Not supporting genocide is the bare minimum that could possibly be asked of Sydney University - or of any other.

The children in the mass graves had their hands zip tied behind their backs.

The doctors in the mass graves had their hands zip tied behind their backs.

They were executed en masse, 300 of them.

300 people who people who lived, breathed, loved, laughed, mattered.

From Columbia to USyd, can we agree once and for all that 'diversity and inclusion' is nothing but a box ticking performance meant to divert from any real, meaningful change?

Make yourself look. If you aren’t talking about Palestine at every thing you do, every coffee, dinner, class, you’re failing. You’re not just failing Palestinians, but the future freedoms you say you care about. You’re failing your humanity You’re failing being someone that cares

A UCL alum and Palestinian professor and writer, Dr Refaat Alareer, was assassinated last year. The uni has yet to acknowledge it, despite student pressure, vigils, & attempts to name the student centre after him. But this is what the renowned Institute of Education decides to do

It’s easy to forget, amid all the violence and repression, that we also live in an age of unimaginable courage.

Seeing way too much “college kids are out of control” and not enough “they’ve uncovered multiple civilian mass graves in Palestine”

An inquest into the deaths of the two Indigenous teenagers has erupted into emotional scenes as a coroner found a drunk white man did sexually molest a 15-year-old as she lay dead after a horrific crash in the Outback. mol.im/a/12807759

the fact that the 40 beheaded babies lie received global news coverage for days on end, while the mass graves of handcuffed people in hospital grounds has received next to nothing, should teach you a very important lesson.

I haven’t even heard this reported in Australia. New depths of horror each day more than 6 months into the genocide

Three hundred bodies exhumed from a mass grave *in a fucking hospital* including the bodies of medics *still in scrubs and wearing handcuffs* and the loudmouths are sucking up all the energy arguing over whether students and other people are protesting the correct way

What we are seeing for Palestine is unprecedented across university campuses. New faces, new collectives, new generations but what remains constant is the freedom vision: end the Zionist racial enterprise, liberation, life, dignity and justice for Palestine. Solidarity, respect
