Got to see Lucas ‘Granpa’ Abela play in Boorloo a few nights ago. He’s incredible! He makes noise through modular synths with a shard of glass to his face. Very moving.

Israel has cut water, electricity and food to Palestinians in Gaza. They are buying 10.000 M16 rifles and plan to distribute to civilian settlers in the West Bank to hunt down Palestinians. They're bombing the only way out of Gaza through Egypt, after telling refugees to flee through it, and have threatened the Egyptian government in case they let aid trucks pass through. Entire families, generations, are being wiped out and left to wander the streets hoping they don't get bombed.

Palestinians are using their last minutes of battery to let the world know about their genocide and are being met with a wall of "What about Hamas? What about the beheaded babies? Killing children on either side is bad!" even though the propaganda claims have been debunked over and over again. How cruel is it to ask somebody to condemn themselves before their last words? Or before grieving the loss of their entire families? When there's no such disclaimer to Israelis even though their government has shown over and over genocidal intent? Like who are you even trying to appease? What will your wishy washy statement do against decades of zionist thought infiltrating evangelical and Jewish stablishmemts?

Take action. Israel will fall back if public opinion turns its tide. The UK fell back on its bloody decision to cut aid to Palestine under public scrutiny. The USAmerican empire spends $3.8 billion dollars annually solely on this proxy war while its people suffer under a progressively military regime as well. News outlets are canceling last minute on Palestinian speakers while letting Israelis tell lies unchecked. Palestinian refugees are being targeted in ICE establishments and mosques are already being hounded by the FBI. France and Germany have banned pro-Palestine protests, while Netherlands and the UK have placed restrictions . You have the chance to stop this from turning into repeat of the Iraq war.

I want to do something but there's hardly anything for me to do from Brasil besides spreading the word and not letting these testimonies fall on deaf ears. I'm asking you to do this same ant work from wherever you are.

Free Palestine graffiti painted on the ABC Radio office in Boorloo/Perth, Western Australia to protest the unjust firing of Antoinette Lattouf over her reporting of the Israeli genocide against the people of Palestine.

This act of censorship by ABC management is an affront to the very idea of journalistic integrity. While the ABC cower in the face of external pressure, 100 journalists have been killed while reporting on the genocide being committed by the state of Israel.

aboriginalproductions We'd like to thank @harrystyles and his whole team for their warmth and respect in asking for a Welcome to Country before performing on Nyoongar Country, here in Boorloo (Perth, Western Australia).

The Welcome is a cultural practice that has been conducted for thousands of years by Aboriginal people across Australia, and is a process of inviting people onto your ancestral Country. In Nyoongar protocol, our Elders often ask the good spirits to watch over the person and keep them safe whilst travelling through our Country. 

It was an honour to conduct this Welcome for Harry and everyone that was present. The silence and respect from the crowd was also very heart-warming. 

We look forward to more artists, local and international, including these important protocols when travelling throughout Australia, to different Aboriginal Countries. 

Thank you Harry and team, thank you @livenationaustralia , we are feeling very grateful and proud to share our culture. Respect. Respect. Respect.
