2 August Rally. Hands off Lebanon! youtu.be/uWf0JHoPEfc?si… We gathered tonight for a snap rally. This speech was tough to deliver. I shook the whole way through. I am sad & anxious. I am worn out by 300 days of this. Some women hugged me afterwards & and we cried a little.

"If colonial law usurps and claims the centre (nomopoly) and from there exerts violence over Indigenous life and lands (nomocide), justice cannot possibly flow from it." Maria Giannacopoulos writes on decolonising law in the time of genocide for the SLR Forum. sociolegalreview.com/post/on-decolo…

this move by Jason Clare MP & the Australian Research Council is outrageous. Our grants and work cannot be subjected to this political interference. All academics, our universities (Macquarie University) & associations (TASA) need to stand up against these attacks. archive.md/2025.01.31-093…

It has been two decades since I first heard of Randa Abdel-Fattah through her literary work, then coming to understand the reach of her scholarly work across law, sociology and beyond. Randa is a formidable thinker on power and colonialism in the age of genocides. I stand with her.

The attacks on Randa Abdel-Fattah are absolutely relentless and horrific and her institution has continually failed to protect her from racist and anti-Palestinian attacks. Stand with Palestinian and Indigenous people in this moment
