Hi, I’m Luke Pearson. You might remember me from such social media platforms as Twitter.
A couple of Palestinian journos who had been reporting for Australian media for the past few years have managed to get out of Gaza with their families but now need support getting set up in a new country (not Australia) where they have no resources and don’t speak the language. gofund.me/d02926541

A few days ago the australian ran a number of hit pieces against the ‘Blak Sovereignty Movement’ who they were claiming, based on very dubious assertions, wanted to use the word ‘genocide’ in a group statement… Super curious to see if they now come out and accuse Patrick Dodson of ‘calculated evil’.

In the 70s and 80s Aboriginal people asked for Treaty, but we were given reconciliation instead...
Cupcakes and platitudes are not reconciliation.
Reconciliation action plans are not reconciliation.
Reconciliation is not Treaty.
Reconciliation is not justice.

They can rescind my award, take away my prize money, rip up the contract but I was still one of two winners of the prestigious Blak & Write Fellowship for 2025. A panel of peers read my manuscript, and selected my work as worthy of winning. Haters can not rob me of Blak joy

Did you ever wonder why so many white South Africans came to Australia after the end of apartheid?

First, they didn’t come for the white South African farmers, and I didn’t speak up because it wasn’t happening but also because ‘white genocide’ is a made up white supremacist conspiracy theory used to justify white supremacy and to oppose immigration and multiculturalism.

The same Sussan Ley who, in her Australia Day speech this year, compared Captain Cook to Elon Musk and then listed all the ‘amazing’ things about Australia that were either just straight untrue or only eventually came about thru activism and then shat on activism as being unAustralian? Cool.

This piece from Boneta-Marie Mabo - granddaughter of Eddie Koiki Mabo - is a really cool little intro to radical Blak activism. It obviously doesn’t cover everything, but I reckon it has some neat little nuggets to chew on.
Well worth taking the time to sit with it.

This is incredibly powerful from the WHO’s Emergencies Director, Dr Mike Ryan, on the world doing nothing as the children of Gaza die.

Remember when the referendum failed and certain conservatives were saying “we voted no to [insert anything and everything Indigenous]” and we were all, “well no, Australia voted no to very specific constitutional change”?

Had a staff member racially profiled on our way to deliver anti-racism training yesterday. I wrote a complaint to the organisation and was told by management that racism and prejudice definitely don’t exist within their organisation but that they’d investigate.
