Dipping my toes back in the Twitterverse. Mostly here for the pet pics, and hopefully some company on the PhD. Art. Law. Geography. Decolonial. Abolitionist.

A friendly reminder that Christmas is the celebration of the birth of a Palestinian refugee who was born fleeing a genocide. I'd call that political.

[Jacinta Allan @JacintaAllanMP]

I am furious that a small group of people have chosen to politicise a beautiful event for children.

I’m just as mad at all the others who have quietly stoked this division and egged them on.

The day she was killed, Ms James was set to confront a local Catholic priest, Father Anthony Bongiorno, about the sexual abuse of her younger son Adam.

Dangerous escalation in policing at the @fpmelbourne rally in Naarm today. PORT sent a snatch squad into the crowd and used OC spray. OC spray is meant to be used as an alternative to lethal force, but can be lethal itself. #freepalestine

Carceral feminists we hear your deafening silence as Constance Watcho’s children and family fight for justice.

Ending violence against women includes Aboriginal women.

We see you standing in silence alongside police & supporting their racial gendered violence. We see you taking up space as self proclaimed “experts” to end violence against women #shame

RIP Constance Watcho

Proud of @FitzroyLegal for stating this so clearly. Justice is key to community law.

@Sarah__Schwartz @hierobadge This sent shivers down my spine when I read it.

Black babies are ripped away from their mothers in hospitals across the continent:

“Letters are left on the hospital bed… Others are encouraged to go out and have a cigarette, only to come back to the hospital to find that their baby has been removed”

Great article on the impact and policing of fines. Currently drafting notes on the classist and racialised impact of fines. Fines as an extension of family violence are also well understood @MVLegalService @IMelbCL @WEstjusticeCLC @CLCsAustralia
