This article is an excellent example of how European fairytales and folklore have been used to co-opt Indigenous cultures and spiritualities. Us witches, pagans and magickal practitioners need to be mindful and critical when following our spiritual beliefs on colonised land π

I HIGHLY recommend the #YouTube channel Andrewism ~ an Afro-Trinidadian solarpunk anarchist. His videos offer invaluable social, cultural and political commentary on topics such as #ClimateChange, #Racism and #Colonisation, #Patriarchy, #Anarchism, #Solarpunk and #Communism while offering constructive solutions to various systemic issues. Truly inspiring and comforting content to reminds us of how capable we are in fighting back against all the struggles we face π

Event brief: "A Truth Telling & Treaty forum In conversation with Senator Lidia Thorpe, Uncle Gary Foley, Uncle Jim Everett and others.
This event aims to provide an opportunity to hear from First Nations Elders and leaders about where to go from here on First Nations Justice.
We will be discussing the importance of Truth Telling as the first step β looking at current developments, and what a national Truth Telling process would contribute. We will also discuss what genuine, inclusive Treaty processes would look like, from the grassroots to National & International levels.
Treaty must be for the people, by the people. It has to come from the ground up, and each of us have a role to play in making it happen."
