Notice how it's antifascist researchers unmasking and naming neo-Nazis in Australia, not Zionist organisations.

“Wianamattas’ emus are a testament to the importance of caring for even the ordinary parts of our living world—the parts that we take for granted.” As part of our series supported by @Co_Power_ , Andy Mason goes searching for Sydney’s last “wild” emus https://t.co/9Rh5OkKnDs

Everybody knows there used to be emus all over Western Sydney. It’s called Emu Plains, for flip’s sake.

The Albanese Government’s ‘one-off decision to wipe 20% off student debt (is) akin to addressing the housing crisis by paying off 20% of every current mortgage without doing anything to reduce the cost of housing.’ https://t.co/FTpMQTFQA0

Thanks to the Job Ready Graduates scheme, an arts degree today will cost over $50,000. How have five decades of government policy taken us from free education to this?

For the last day of our Subscriberthon we have set aside something *very* special: a gallery of stunning portraits of Palestinian activists by Tia Kasambalis, with an introduction by Tasnim Mahmoud Sammak. Here’s PORTRAITS OF RESISTANCE. https://t.co/pm8w1oocwM

Hard to overstate how important this is: we've been told that USyd is an antisemitism hub, and Palestine supporters are the reason. That's been widely contested, incl. by Jewish people. Now, it turns out that the uni itself has *no evidence* of it, despite Zionist complaints.

We have put a lot of effort recently in making available the entire archive of OVERLAND’s 70+ year history. In that spirit, we bring you a previously unpublished interview with historian Humphrey McQueen on state violence and the arming of the police. https://t.co/KrH9GlH2Nc

In this interview with Rock Chugg, commissioned some twenty years by then-editor Nathan Hollier for a monographic issue that didn't eventuate, Australian historian Humphrey McQueen discusses the...

'The parallels between Israeli and Australian violence are useful because the concept of settler colonialism encourages us to think about structure rather than events... conflict unfolds because of the structural incompatibility of settlement with the way of life it displaces.'
I’ve got a piece up at @OverlandJournal about Gaza and colonial Australia as part of Subscriberthon. Take out a sub and show your support! https://t.co/pDPJhoErah

I am so upset. Last week Time Magazine solicited a piece from me on Zohran Mamdani & anti-Muslim hate. I pitched a framing re the dehumanization of Muslims & how Mamdani’s inclusive, socialist campaign in its content resists that. They agreed. I wrote the piece. 1/
Tfw you’re invited to write a piece about racism only for the edits to be racist. New level unlocked.

The people who zip-tied children’s hands and feet before burying them alive in Gaza, who lined Palestinian men on the ground and ran them over with tanks, who bombed refugee tents and beheaded nine-month-pregnant women are now asking if Palestinian society can be “deradicalized.”
Can Palestinian society be deradicalized? What does that even mean? Is the problem a religious one? A political one? Should Israel play a part? In a new episode we turned to Dr. Einat Wilf to talk about the conflict, the history of the two peoples, and Israel's foreign policy. >
