RESIST AUSTRALIA'S CLIMATE
DESTRUCTION
Okay, Day 9 and it's been a wild evening!
2pm: After Luke's morning action, Heike jumps on a coal train halting trains in and out of the Newcastle Coal Port.
11pm: Skye climbs into a tree-sit tied to the rail, blocking traffic for a solid 5 hours. She is kept company on her livestream by a few passionate supporters from around the world over night.
4.30am: Nate steps in at dawn for the next 3 hours, hanging from a bipod over 2-mile creek bridge leading into the world's largest coal port.
#BlockadeAustralia is a growing network that knows direct action is effective when it's targeted and sustained as it challenges power where it operates on the ground.
As long as Australia continues to exploit this continent and those who call it home, our resistance will continue.

Blockade Australia Has Shut Down Newcastle Coal Line for 10 Days Straight: Interview With Grace
The climate defence network that police designated as public enemy number one has made clear it will continue to fight for the future generations.
BREAKING: 21 year old Laura has been sentenced to 3 months jail in Newcastle court after shutting down the loading facility at the Coal Port on Sunday.
After more than 30 arrests as part of a sustained Blockade Australia mobilisation, Laura is the first to be sentenced to jail.
In the face of repression action becomes more important than ever. There are risks inherent in challenging this system but to risk standing idle is to risk everything.

Anonymous submission from a group of antifascist networks in so-called 'melbourne':
"In the wake of the heinous & racist riots in the UK & the NSN feeling emboldened to attempt to normalise their presence in the streets of our cities, a solidarity action was held to say
FCK NSN, FCK EDL, N@ZI SCUM GO TO HELL!
Systems of oppression always work to uphold one another and we cannot rely on the state to keep our communities safe. Community safety is maintained when we take to the streets and fight back.
Don't rely on any entity that claims authority or experience over you, liberation is a community effort, take autonomous action. Join your local antif@scist network, train, organise and bash fash."
