Wukalina Walk
MIICA BALINT, PHOTOGRAPHY ALEC BAKER 22.04.2025

What the Palawa people have done with land rights in Wukalina to Larapuna returned, marks how custodianship, guided by reciprocity, respect and relationality, is the way to heal. 


Aafia Ali Shah’s exhibition ‘To Love The Empty Cup’ can be seen at the Lismore Regional Gallery until the 27th of April. 

A  philosophical look at the depth of personal identity and spirit, and its colourful translation onto canvas.



When the river runs black
TOM WOLFF 22.04.2025 

A confronting acknowledgement of the suffocating death that blackwater brings to our river systems. A reality that can leave one feeling devoid of hope, but a call to action nonetheless.  

“Rivers bear the greatest brunt of collective mistakes made over many generations.”

An Open Letter to the Premierof NSWTOM WOLFF 28.03.2025
Sent this morning with 763 signatures to Chris Minns. 
I wish you saw with your own eyes what I have witnessed every day this week: eels, crabs, fish and prawns gasping for oxygen; literally suffocating in the river that is their home. These animals are the victims of a history they played no part in creating.

on my second coffee, black, by the time 
I met Jill and Nic at ten am.
