Was so honoured to be a part of this important piece for the ABC. Our most vulnerable - low income, regional and rural areas - are being left behind when it comes to mental health, and the impact of this inequality is life altering. This needs to change.

The intellectually dishonest definition of antisemitism adopted by Australian universities has basically loaded a gun and pointed it at Palestinian and Arab academics first and foremost. The only way we are permitted to exist as Palestinian and Arab in the academy is if we acquiesce to genocide, occupation, apartheid and settler colonialism. We are expected to bear witness silently, to surrender to the blows dealt on us and not name our oppressor, occupier, genocider. This is a shameful capitulation that not only betrays the core principles of intellectual freedom but exposes the contempt with which Palestinian and Arab lives are held. We have never been safe.
