@gazaheart #MSO this is depraved. Seriously? Israel has hunted and murdered more than 113 Palestinian journalists in 9 months, each murder a war crime, and this cannot be mentioned or their lives honoured? Pathetic.

Striking gap between the work Aboriginal women do documenting the life shattering reality of white supremacy and colonist violence and the wall of silence from settler historians in the colony. Same as outside academia, colonists thrive, yes, thrive, in this system that kills.

@StrewthQueen I actually had a landlord do this to me. But they only said it when I told them i was leaving due to their attempt to limit my guests. they said 'well hey I won't give u the money I've been saving for you from your rent' (!) And they didn't give me anything.

@DrBlackDeer I sit with them in that question. Ask them what world they want. discuss that. ask how we can get there together. ask if we can start to move that direction in the classroom <3 (and i teach exactly to make that space for their change!).

When I was a fellow at the state library vic with what some staff referred to as 'the Aboriginal project', a librarian in the archive reading room checked my bag for manuscripts before I left the room. This never happened before or after the fellowship.

Last night's #QandA highlighted again that there is no lack of truth telling, but a failure of colonisers to listen to the truth. Truth telling is hard work when colonists hardline refuse to listen. Over and over. Structural and endemic.

Am I missing something? Are all the white historians of 'Aboriginal Australia' in some pocket of the world fighting against the ongoing violence?i only see them at book launches and in TV docos. If murders are the colonial project and not their ARC project, they don't care?.

@StrewthQueen I actually pressed my landlord on it at the time and was like 'how much? Have u kept it aside or ?' And they admitted they just made it up in the moment out of anger at my leaving. Pure control attempt.

@lesbiayen 100% Also, tangata tiriti, people who are settlers who are also part of the (non-Indigenous side of ) the Treaty of Waitangi, can uphold their part by respectfully doing the Ka Mate Haka, so if someone was tangata tiriti (white included) it is not automatically wrong.

White supremacy is being a yt researcher, making a question in colonist language, then going to 'other' communities and making them work to respond to the same question, huge conceptual hurdles/knowledge ignored.
