Barbara_Hart_and Linda on 'Subversion' Community Radio 4ZZZ

The story they told men was a cunningly devised fable; the gospels they preached to them were not an account of man’s real position in this world, but an incoherent fabrication, of dead ghosts and unborn shadows, of traditions, cants, indolences, cowardices,—a falsity of falsities, which at last ceases to stick together. Wilfully and against their will, these high units of mankind were cheats, the...

“You cannot buy the revolution. You cannot make the revolution. You can only be the revolution. It is in your spirit, or it is nowhere.” ― Ursula K. Le Guin, The Dispossessed Linda speaks with Barbara Hart on 4ZZZ's 'Subversion' in 2018 soon after Le Guin's death.

We were standing on the railway tracks. It was 9pm. Over a 100 police lurked in the shadows. Special Branch was all around. The ABC evening broadcast came over the radio. The suave voice of an evening news reader declared we had been removed from the tracks. Yet here we stood blocking the uranium train. The police commander bellowed over the loud hailer that we should relent. From the middle of ou...

18 years ago, on March 20th 2003, Australia joined the United States, the UK, Denmark and Poland in a military invasion of Iraq, a sovereign country, in flagrant violation of the United Nations Charter, with no authorization by the UN Security Council and based on lies propagated by the political leaders of those countries. The invasion and subsequent war devastated the country, causing over 500,0...

Brian pays tribute to the work done by women counsellors who try to get violent men to realise that what they are doing is wrong. Men’s power plays are hurtful to everyone, to society at large. At one point it seemed like he was making fun of "woke" people but when he explained it it turned out what he was saying was really good. And that he might have even taken on board what some woke people wer...

0:00 We're angry at the hyper sexualization and objectification of our girls, which sets them up as victims of male violence. 0:11 We're angry that no one ever mentioned war, or the prostitution of women as factors in boys and men sexual violence against girls and women. 0:22 And we're angry at the ongoing failure of our politicians and our courts and a place to deal properly with domestic violenc...

International Working Women's Day You don't often see events for this day with the word "working" in their title. But for ourselves it is a very deliberate inclusion. We're here demanding for and building a movement that is for all of us, not just for a privileged view. So on that note, I'd like to acknowledge that we are gathering today on the land of the Yuggerra and Torubul people and pay my re...

In a week celebrating International Women’s Day, we might well look for the political reasons behind the attacks on women by the federal government. Australia has long had family political dynasties that have benefited from capitalist exploitation of workers, women, blacks, and minority groups. The Porter family ‘dynasty’ Attorney General Christian Porter says he remembers very little of events du...
