Building Solidarity. Amplifying Voices.
Committed to Honouring First Nations and Challenging Imperial Narratives
As settler immigrants on stolen country, we pay our respects to all First Nations people everywhere, especially the Noongar people on whose land we live. We stand in solidarity with our siblings here in Australia and in places where lives and livelihoods are under attack. We came together in the crisis of genocide and in the aftermath of the violence inflicted on creatives who dared to stand against dominant imperial narratives. Our solidarity is both unconditional and non transactional. We aim to build a bigger table and hold the door open for those who are ‘deliberately silenced or preferably unheard.’ As bell hooks says, ‘sometimes people try to destroy you precisely because they recognise your power. Not because they do not see it, but because they see it and they do not want it to exist.’ We exist. We resist. We dissent.
