Anti-racist rallies all over on October 19, in response to the next round of these 'Marches for Australia'. Get to your one. It's your opportunity not only to stand up, but to start meeting and making plans with other anti-racists. Your presence matters. Share it around.

"So, how do you turn a $90 million surplus into a $142.5 million deficit?

Right now, Donald Trump, Kash Patel, Kristi Noem, and other officials are participating in a panel about "Antifa," threatening to "destroy the entire organization [sic] from top to bottom."

ANU interim vice chancellor today announced no more forced redundancies under the Renew ANU program. Cuts are ongoing, but forced redundancies are off the table. It’s been a hard slog. Harms are ongoing. There’s still more work to do. I’m so proud of my colleagues, ANU community.
