Well done to the courageous Donnell Wallam & the Diamonds 💜 Their stance led to important discussions on historical racism, sport & climate denialism, use of sponsorship to silence athletes/sports & a positive outcome for all. 🙌 ⁦@visitvictoria⁩ abc.net.au/news/2022-10-3…

Restraint positions like this were banned in Queensland due to the risk of suffocating and killing a child. But "folding up" is common in WA youth detention. From Grace Tobin Meghna Bali Mary Fallon and me. abc.net.au/news/2022-11-1…

They cant resist when you have 4 men on them, thats just said to cover their arses for harming little kids. Stop treating #IndigenousKids like this and breaching their #HumanRights #HumanRightsViolations

State governments know that detaining children as young as 10 is traumatising and makes them more likely re-offend, putting the community at greater risk. So why does Australia continue to incarcerate children knowing the harm it causes? Tonight's investigation on #4Corners.

We need a national call to protest, to take to the streets to force the royal commissions findings and raise the age to 14 yrs and end solitary confinement. Child detention centres need scrutiny

Women of maths! We are advertising a women-only ongoing Lecturer (Assistant Prof) position in the QUT maths school. We are so excited about this opportunity, and can’t wait to mentor a new female colleague to grow her research team. Please apply, or reach out if you need advice

The other reality is that #RaiseTheAge will force Govts to actually invest in prevention. It’s simply too easy to send a kid to prison than do the heavy lifting of preventing it.

I do wonder if Mark McGowan considers how being locked up in isolation for this long would lead to "severe.. and I mean.. severe behavioural issues" or if he realises his policies are the cause of them... The level of community silence after that #4corners is deafening 😢

Real Y2K jibes right now, but don't feel twitter is going anywhere. It is owned by a person I don't align with, enough reason to divest. If there's 435mil active monthly users here, he bought your account for US$100. If we all bail we could make him broke! #mastodon

🧵Let's be clear. No 'talking to', sacking or liberal fantasy of 'reform' will change the fundamentally racist design of #QPS and its violent role in maintaining the colony #DefundQPS Our expert report to the inquiry bit.ly/3ErEa1M

Did not expect the AFR to come out swinging... but it's a welcome addition. "Forrest displays a startling lack of coherence here. He is mining someone else’s land without a land-use agreement, and he doesn’t want to pay them 'cash for nothing'!" afr.com/rear-window/an…

A reminder that there are still people on Nauru who’ve been there for 10 years. Away from their families. It’s inconceivable that Australia could treat anyone in this way. This is Kaium who has asked for his photo to be shared. We must get everyone off Nauru immediately.
