Boycott Max Brenner - protest in Newtown

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on Wed, 07/09/2011 - 4:59pm

Date and Time:

Sat, 10/09/2011 -

1:00pm to 3:00pm

Location:

Meet outside the Newtown Neighbourhood Centre (just across the road from Newtown station) to march to Max Brenner on King street and then to the ‘I have a dream’ mural.

Max Brenner is owned by the Strauss Group which proudly proclaims its support for the Israeli military, the enforcers of Israel's dispossession & oppression of the Palestinian population. Max Brenner has become the symbol of the campaign for Boycotts, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) against Israeli apartheid in Australia.

Disturbingly, at the last BDS protest in Brisbane, the Zionists organised a counter-protest where they stood shoulder to shoulder with members of the Australian Patriotic Defense Movement - a group linked to the fascist English Defense League

Zionist and fascists mobilise to support Max Brenner and Israel

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on Thu, 01/09/2011 - 3:40pm

See email below from Melbourne. Please spread the word about the next Boycott Max Brenner rally. It appears the fascists will be joining the Zionists to support Israel in opposition to the next Boycott Max Brenner protest. And they try to smear supporters of Palestine as "anti-Semites" while linking arms with the genuine article!!!

Free Palestine! Boycott Max Brenner

1pm Saturday 10 September

Rally outside Newtown Neighbourhood Centre (opposite station), march up to Max Brenner, King St Newtown.

Gurindji Memorial Day in Sydney

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on Fri, 26/08/2011 - 10:58pm

On 26/8/2011 a protest was held in Sydney on the 45th anniversary of the Wave Hill walk-off, when Aboriginal people walked off a cattle station in 1966 and became pioneers of the Aboriginal land rights movement. Just over 100 people demonstrated outside the Sydney electorate office of federal Minister for Social Inclusion Tanya Plibersek in an action, organised by the Stop The Intervention Collective Sydney, calling for an end to the discriminatory Northern Territory intervention. 1000 were at a re-enactment of the walkoff in Wave Hill, the protesters were told by phone from Wave Hill, NT.
