Twitter Blue: the worlds greatest education campaign on the importance of fact checking your sources.

You know what isn't happening? Being driven off Twitter a week before #TransAwarenessWeek. #TransgenderAwarenessWeek is Nov 13-19 this year. Flooding timelines with #TransAffirmingTweets is absolutely a thing, so let's do that. #IndigiQueer #IndigiTrans

I’d pay $8 a month for someone to smack the phone out of my hand any time I open Twitter.

Meanwhile, a 15-year-old boy was killed while walking home from school and his community are begging us to pay attention. He was walking while Black. That’s it. There are some massive issues in this country that we just keep papering over. But made up culture wars- all over that

A non-exhaustive list of ways you can show up as an ally right now: - Ask the Blackfullas in your life – how can I support? - Educate yourself - Listen - Resist the urge to be an expert - Financial contributions to pay the rent/Dhadjowa/grassroot orgs. (1/3)

This beautiful child was taken from his family with unthinkable violence. We must demand #justiceforcassius and all Aboriginal women and children. gofundme.com/f/justiceforca…

Parents: Ok I just have to fit my entire work week into an eight hour day today since last week I had four appointments, car trouble, and school was closed for conferences for two days..but I think I can do it if I skip lunch and ignore some things Kids: mama? I frowed up

My heart goes out to the family of Cassius Turvey. I can’t imagine the thought of a loved one being taken from me by a racist with a metal pole. The racist is a murderer. But the racism of the Australian public is also complicit for creating the environment for this to happen

If you missed it - you need to watch. #MMIW abc.net.au/news/2022-10-2…

Just finished watching @4corners I don’t think I even have the right words for the emotions felt listening to families of murdered and missing Aboriginal women. @bridgeyb shared these stories cantering the humanity of the women. They are loved, missed and should still be with us.

Racism kills. Violence against First Nations people in this country must end. I stand with you, I will fight for you and do everything I can to bring justice to the family and community. #justiceforcassius

Thorpe’s treatment is a clear demonstration that the standards of political accountability are determined by race and gender in this place.
