Artist statement: Flowers grow, the world revolves, and we make it through another day. While the sun sets, the diminishing rays ignite our own introspection on the status quo and our part in that. As we take stock of where we are, intertwined is a wealth of knowledge and strength.  This is the destination, and now is the journey. 

We have new stock of our Radical Radio Tees featuring the iconic antenna design by artist Emily Floyd. As well as our basic black there's a range of great pastel and primary colours in a variety of sizes. And, for those radical little people, we have a short run of kids tees available too. For just $30 adults or $20 kids you can get yourself a local, ethically manufactured and printed tee that supports radical community radio. We can send one out in the post, and there’s click and collect from our 21 Smith St Fitzroy Studios. Or, if you are fully vaxxed you can drop in and browse our tshirt rack during business hours. Buy one online now. 

We’re thrilled to have Margin Voice join our program schedule each Wednesday 6.30-7pm. The show provides a platform for Sudanese current affairs, arts and culture, bridging the gap between generations in the Sudanese community in Australia and abroad. Najeem Musa and Eltayeb Ali provide a space to talk about politics and news from Darfur and beyond, as well as local information and interviews for and by the marginalised Sudanese diaspora in Australia. The program also features modern and traditional music in Arabic and other tribal languages. Listen back to their latest show now! Presented by the Darfur Community Association of Australia.
