Excellent, practical list! I've already followed through on the Vic Uni one and will do more. As I was out rallying for Palestine on Saturday, I realised it is exactly 60 years since my first protests against our involvement in the Vietnam war. Plus ca change, plus c'est la meme chose! Yet, we must keep on speaking up, working together to create a saner, kinder world.
Thank you so much for this Emily. This is a perfect way to see what actions we can take, or top up what we are doing. It’s easy to be so overwhelmed and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for this list.
If anyone is looking for something else they can do, the Law Commission is currently taking consultations on a historical piece of work that would explicitly extend human rights protections to trans, non-binary, and intersex people in Aotearoa. The Free Speech Union and the rest of the anti trans lobby are mobilising people to oppose these changes - thankfully, the Commission have been clear they're not looking for thousands of copy and paste submissions, but are interested in people's genuine thoughts and considerations. One individual submission in your own words is likely worth 100 of the FSU's astro turfed submissions, and will go a long way! https://www.lawcom.govt.nz/our-work/ia-tangata/tab/issues-paper
Once again, thank YOU for making it easier to have a voice - so often we yell at the TV or the internet & feel helpless, and it feels empowering when we can do SOMETHING - appreciate all your work, but these posts are the most valued 👏🏾🫂
Thanks so much for this super helpful guide Emily! You make it so easy - I submitted a complaint about the Hobsons pledge as whilst eating my toast this morning 👌🏼
