‘‘The bullets didn't stop with Blackfulla's, we have to be united against oppressive power structures and their morbid sense of entitlement to our bodies and countries.

The Aboriginal, Torres Strait Islander and Palestinian people are one and the same, from the Gamilaraay 500 to Gaza today, it's especially apparent when evaluating the treatment of our people - and the wider (whiter) 'australian' response.

Standing with Palestine is standing strong with your sovereignty pressed against the face of bombardment. It's standing for the memory of all Indigenous people across the globe who bare the scares that genocide forces you to limp away with.

We've had since 1788 to recognise the demon in the detail, 'israel' holds as much weight to mob as 'australia' does. I disrespect the notion that either one exist in any so-called civilised capacity. You should too.”
