In case anyone in Australia thought that our cops were even remotely ok. They aren’t. Police Kettled a bunch of peaceful protestors in Sydney central station and then pepper-sprayed them. We aren’t guiltless and this isn’t ok. Black lives matter everywhere. I know it’s easy on Tumblr especially to focus on what’s going on in countries like the US and the UK - it’s easy to get swept up in the noise and the outrage at how people in other countries are struggling and sympathy for them, but remember that we also have our own battles to fight. We aren’t guiltless. Keep an eye on the news, and on social media, listen to other people’s points of view, try to get all the information and then make up your own mind. I’ll be making a few more posts like this - and trying to post more Australia - centric news. Idk if there are any Aussies that follow me, but I think it’s important that this is talked about here, since I haven’t seen anything about this so far. It may just be the people I follow.
