Disrupt Land Forces 2022


Listen Later

Land Forces is the largest land based weapons expo in the Southern Hemisphere. Wage Peace is organising, for the second year, a festival of resistance from October 1-7 in Meanjin-Brisbane. We speak with Walpiri elder Ned Tjampijinpa Hargraves about the Karrinjarla Muwajarri campaign that is a calling for a ceasefire and no police guns.  The campaign started after 19 year old Kumanjayi Walker was shot dead by a Police Constable Zacharly Rolfe in Yuendumu in 2019.   Rolfe was charged with murder and the case went to the supreme court but in March 2022 Rolfe was aquitted.  The community is still seeking justice.  Uncle Ned has taken the Karrinjarla Muwajarri campign to Meanjin-Brisbane for Disrupt Land Forces because the main manufacturer of police bullets is the company NIOA, a major sponsor for Land Forces 2022.  NIOA formed a partnership with Winchester in 2021 and together the two companies dominate the law enforcement market.  In 2021 they successfully tender for the bulk of armaments supply to the NT police worth a total of $1.8 billion.We also speak with peace & anti-military campaigner and event organiser Andy Paine about what's planned for the Disrupt Land Forces 2022 festival of resistance.
