Guest Editor Celeste Liddle says:

“It doesn’t matter whether people are talking about community-building and mass movements, or merely getting out of bed each day as a socially-marginalised individual – when it comes to ‘resistance’ itself, it is consistently about the reinforcement of the right to exist. This right is always precarious for certain sections of the community, and through knowledge and networking, we push to ensure more people have access to it.”

“We should ask about our methods of resistance because they do – or they should – embody the world we want to make together, the one in which we want to live together.”

– Judith Butler

“Palestine is an idea; Palestine is a people. People have left their shitty jobs to be with Palestine, deferred semesters, and delayed weddings to be with Palestine. They hold each other.”

– Tasnim Mahmoud Sammak

“…I’m more interested in how this stage of global recession and of late capitalism, after spending two years predominantly on our phones, has created a way in which all communities are feeling hyper individualistic.”

– Travis Alabanza

Join us in the spirit of RESISTANCE.

Palestinian resistance. Blak resistance. Trans resistance. Sex worker resistance. Resistance against racism. Resistance against ableism. Resistance against patriarchy. Resistance against colonialism.

Archer Magazine’s new issue, RESISTANCE, launches on Friday 30 August at Studio Take Care, Brunswick (Naarm).

This event will be a space to learn how to fight back. To connect. To gather strength. To platform voices that deserve to be heard.

Come together to hear orations from guest editor Celeste Liddle and other speakers, as well as musicians and DJs each spearheading their personal brand of RESISTANCE.

Support independent media. Support lesser-heard voices. Support resistance.

This event is a safer space, which means that when entering it, folks agree to work against homophobia, racism, transphobia, classism, fatphobia, ableism, and other forms of oppressive behaviour. Please let someone from the Archer team know if this space isn’t upheld.

We acknowledge our event will take place on the stolen land of the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin nation. We pay our respects to Indigenous elders past and present. Sovereignty was never ceded. Always was, always will be.

Studio Take Care is wheelchair accessible (including the bathroom), and the event will have Auslan interpretation and a low-sensory space. If you have any other access requirements/things that would help you feel comfortable, please advise us at checkout or get in touch at info@archermagazine.com.au.
