Aired on 16.02.25, 10:00am

From Larrakia to the Levant, we hear stories of fighting for the sacredness of land and the righteousness of anger. 

Continuing our collaboration with The Sunday Paper, an independent anti-zionist press championing the connections between First Peoples struggles across the globe. Hosted by Toobs and Bipasha Roy - we begin in Lee Point, poet and activist Laniyuk on the land rights fight up in Larrakia country and the role it plays in our collective survival in a climate crisis. To the Levant and it’s diaspora, we hear Mell Chun in conversation with artist Alisar Seyla on the conceptual space of Rage Cafe and the possibility of anger as a productive emotion towards self preservation. 

We also allude to black feminist writer Audre Lorde on the Uses of Anger , and Mimi’s Zhu’ work Be Not Afraid of Love
