People need to stop misusing, misappropriating, distorting the principle of cultural safety. SA Premier has no idea what this model of care is, and has been weaponising it. Reporters need to stop being stenographers. Ask him flat out what he thinks that term means - I dare you.

First Nations man Jai Gray was a vulnerable person but his sister says when he went missing, there wasn't a sense of urgency from authorities, forcing the family to conduct their own enquiries and searches. abc.net.au/news/2025-08-08/j…

Family of 'disappeared' man says police 'wiped their hands clean of him'

Jai Gray disappeared from his home in Morayfield, north of Brisbane, in June last year. His body was found in a quarry about two weeks later.

Now, can I have my Black&Write Fellowship back? Taking that award from me was also unjust and disrespectful. It was an illogical incident that created ripples of damage to numerous Blak creatives, recklessly caused by ridiculous men caving into whims of bad faith lobbyists

Yesterday I informed the @slqld @QldLitAwards of my disgust at the news @1KarenWyld’s black&write! fellowship had been rescinded after interference from the Qld Minister for the Arts John-Paul Langbroek in a clear attempt to punish a Blak writer for speaking on Palestine.

Please read this entire thread. Another storyteller alleges she was punished for not being ok with daily war crimes. Another hit job from The Australian. Another gutless art institution seemingly capitulating to pressure. Another stain on our democracy.

Last night, I secretly flew to Brisbane to attend the 2025 Black & Write Fellowship announcement. Which is supposed to be happening right now at SLQ. At this event, I was to be named one of the recipients. Woo hoo. This is a huge career milestone!! However.... 1/

Fuck them. I WAS a recipient of the prestigious Black & Write Fellowship award. SLQ can take my award away and withdraw my prize money, but they can't take away the fact that Blak literary peers read my manuscript and judged it worthy. Much love to mob who supported my work ❤️

The Melbourne Storm have paid a huge price for their last-minute axing of the Welcome to Country ceremony at their NRL Anzac Day fixture, with major partner Victorian Aboriginal Health Services (VAHS) cutting ties with the NRL club. 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
