No baby formula has entered Gaza for four months because of Israel’s genocidal blockades. There is nothing left to feed babies and their mothers can not produce milk as they themselves are starving. There is no defending what Israel is doing. No justification.

Shillan Shebly, Natalie Ironfield and Elizabeth Strakosch write about the policing of Palestine solidarity and the intensifying climate of political repression at the University of Melbourne, all “operating in the name of ‘antiracism’.” overland.org.au/2025/06/rebran…

As Cornell historian Enzo Traverso argues: “equating anti-Zionism with antisemitism kills three birds with one stone, striking at anti-colonialism, anti-racism and Jewish nonconformism” overland.org.au/2025/06/rebran…

Universities: “we are committed to social, cultural, and moral service” Also universities: “we are replacing our philosophy, ethics, history, and literature departments with an expanded business/crypto double major”

1/ The outcome of the Antoinette Lattouf Lattouf case needs to prompt a much wider conversation that extends beyond the media to academia. Why is it that managers so easily cave in to lobbying campaigns instead of protecting academic and press freedom?

FYI: if you "feel unsafe" when statistics show that you're more safe and privileged than any other minority, you need a therapist specialising in anxiety, not the lobbyist who told you you're unsafe.

that they organised this press conference to talk about their antisemitism plan during NAIDOC week, that they refuse to mention settler-colonialism & its enduring shaping of race relations, is illustrative of the violence at the heart of their plans

this is a clear attack on university education and research, including the ARC. every academic institution needs to be coming out against this. we all need to demonstrate, collectively, that we will not allow our work to be monitored and controlled in this repressive manner.

Some people get fired, cautioned or ostracised for sharing human rights content relating to Palestine, others get appointed to national sporting boards after sharing content describing Muslims as “Satan worshipping cockroaches that need to be eradicated”. smh.com.au/national/anti-…

The fact Nova Peris OAM OLY can share tweets calling for the eradication of Muslims & maintain her position on a government-funded sports board shows that Australia still has a huge problem with institutional racism.
