Kim (33) has jumped onto a train saying, “we have to get to the root of the problem, which is the system, we need to organise ourselves differently to create economies that prioritise people’s needs.”
“It’s all connected, the genocide of first peoples, the exploitation of land and the climate crisis.”
“Whether it’s through stopping coal as we hurtle headlong into climate collapse… or showing up in solidarity for Palestine and getting in the way of corporations who are enabling genocide for their own profit… we have to get to the root of the problem. We need to organise ourselves differently to create economies that prioritise people’s needs.”
Australia, Israel, and the USA are a part of the same financial, military, and ideological system of exploitation that maintains power through extraction and military force. Power that serves only the elite at the expense of the needs of the many and the climate that sustains us all.
“The global systems that Australia supports are continuing genocides and dispossession using militarised state-sanctioned violence. I’m here to say that ordinary people without real access to decision-making power can and should intervene directly to stop the flow of resources.”
