On this May Day episode we focus on solidarity with the unhoused and Iranians. Hear all about Melbourne cities council authoritarian bullying of rough sleepers with Homeless Persons Union Victoria. These are our cities and suburbs peoples! We can't allow this ICE-like treatment of other human beings deserving of dignity and access to public space!

Follow this hear a speech I recorded of Ali Keshtkar at Public Meeting (Geelong): Stop the Imperialist War in Iran, End Australian Support, hosted by Maritime Union of Australia, Socialist Alliance and Independant and Peaceful Australia Network. Where is the left and worker solidarity with Iran right now? Why aren't we hitting the streets in mass action? Hear why we must be mobilising right away!

 

The Image reads Kill Your Lawn and Kick Your Fence. The letters are cut out from from magazines. There are more magazine cut outs of Kookaburra's and an Owl with flowers groing out of their heads in a psychadelic fashion. The background is cardboard spray painted with orange and green. There are cut outs of bush fires and an 'idealic' suburban lawn.
Friday 9:00am to 10:00am
Why are we so behind on greening our cities and suburbs? What happened to communities, where truly no one is left behind? Where is justice for communities that have been abandoned? Kill Your Lawn and Kick Your Fence, talks to and with communities, about how we can learn to share and care for each other and our beloved planet.
