First Peoples were the first to experience militarised harm on this continent and the killing has not stopped. Militarism enforces extractivism through the dispossession and violent suppression of First Peoples. Militarism enforces ecocide. State violence against First Peoples in West Papua, Palestine, the Philippines and on this continent protects climate destruction and intends to erase indigenous resistance. Disrupt Land Forces stands with the Senior Elders of Yuendumu, the Institute for Collaborative Race Research and Sisters Inside in their call for a CEASEFIRE on this land. We publish their statements here after consultation with the authors, and with commitment to continue our active solidarity with First Nations peoples of this land.
In a chilling parallel, we stand with the people of Palestine as they demand a CEASEFIRE – and an end to the genocide, ethnic cleansing, and occupation of their lands. From Wurundjeri to West Papua to the West Bank, #LandBack #Sovereignty #Ceasefire

We back the Warlpiri voices calling to disarm police.
We understand our organising and resistance as one of many possible responses to this powerful call to anti-racist action.
We are disrupting Land Forces in the context of an ongoing genocide in Palestine. For more ways to disrupt the flows of capital that sustain the zionist entity, check out BDS Australia.
