Pinkwashing
  • The Melbourne Queer Film Festival were asked to drop a pink-washing Israli film, and join in BDS against the aparthied state.
  • They didn’t, saying they wanted to remain “apolitical”.
  • The push to remove the film was spearheaded by Queer Palestinians like Lujayn Hourani.
  • MQFF co-president Molly Whelan and board member Nayuka Gorrie have resigned over the festival’s decision.
    • Returning hero
    • Former North Melbourne coach Dani Laidley returned to speak at the football club, representing her “old tribe and new tribe”.
  • Dani was outed as trans by police, who leaked photos and made transphobic comments.
    • Pride lobby
    • The Victorian Pride lobby surveyed 1,500 LGBTIQA+ people to understand their feelings towards police.
  • In 2019, police raided queer bookshop Hares & Hyenas, breaking a man’s arm (they also had the wrong address).
  • IBAC found it was okay though.
  • Get cops out of pride.
