The Port of Newcastle was held up for 7+ hours last night by people taking part in the #BlockadeAustralia mobilisation.
73-year-old legend Sarah surfed a coal train into the moonrise.
Later on, strapping young champion Sam, age 21, swung from a railway bridge and praised indigenous ways of being while cursing the dominant system now acting as Australia,
“It’s supposed to be a symbiotic relationship, it’s not supposed to be an oppressive, dominating relationship between the state and the land.”
“There is nowhere I’d rather be right now than right here stopping this f***ing disgusting coal train!”
The climate crisis threatens all life on earth and the continuation of the human species. Relentless extraction and exploitation of the land and people that make up the foundations of the Australian system perpetuate this crisis and must be blocked.
