This story is massive and atm there’s one piece out there that nails it.
What’s happening today is going to have ramifications for Australian art and speech for a long time.
Read @NourHaydar’s reporting on it.

It must be our priority to exit AUKUS immediately—we cannot tie our security to American imperialism, not only because it directly endangers us, at exorbitant cost, for no gain, but also because they are demonstrably engaged in crimes against humanity.

So much respect for @antoinette_news' , her composure and tenacity in the face of such hostile ‘gotcha’ line of questioning from ABC’s defence is formidable.

"Ita Buttrose pushed for Antoinette Lattouf to be taken off-air, asking why she could not 'come down with flu, or COVID or a stomach upset?' after receiving a tranche of complaints about her."
Ooft. Can't wait to hear what Ita has to say on the stand.

Whether a ceasefire occurs in Lebanon or not, the situation at hand is unchanged: Israel is an apartheid state committing a genocide in Palestine and it is upon all of us to resist their horrific crimes against humanity. All states need to end trade and enact sanctions.
I'd love to talk to a librarian in Australia about their fave Aussie kids books this year for an article I am writing. Know anyone? Please get in touch bysarahayoub(at)gmail(dot)com

I'm finding it very hard to comment on events in the Middle East. The indifference and even enthusiasm towards the indiscriminate bombing of Arabs and Muslims speaks to something deeper and dark. It never went away. But I never thought I'd see it presented so unapologetically.
