The day author Ren Wyld was due to receive the Black & Write $15k Indigenous fellowship she was told it had been rescinded. A journo from the Oz seemed to know before she did. Appalling to see QLD govt cave to Murdoch press to punish a First Nations writer for speaking out in support of Palestine.

Raising concerns for the genocide of Palestinians is truth telling.

At art school now we performatively acknowledge country and First Nations people but we cannot acknowledge Palestine lest we offend “someone”.
