“Nationals leader #DavidLittleproud says one of his “proudest” moments of his #leadership has been to oppose #TheVoice to # parliament.

Speaking to the #NationalPressClub, Littleproud says it wasn’t a decision that was made quickly by his party room.

Within our party room, in a #respectful way we undertook a #committee within our party room to listen [to the] yes and no case, to understand what the machinery would look like, what it would mean for us who represent some of the most #disadvantaged #Indigenous #Australians in remote areas.
Littleproud says the voice would have repeated “mistakes of the past” and was not the way to empower local communities.”

A reminder Littleproud has no tertiary #education, a rarity in leadership teams in #Labor, #LNP, #Greens and #Independents.

the Guardian · Pocock calls Coalition’s planned public service cuts ‘pure Canberra bashing’ – as it happenedThis blog is now closed

What the world needs now is loving connection
Communication that’s respectful
and kind and good natured
What our world needs now is courage and bravery
That’s healthy (not toxic, not harmful or hateful)

To be continued… as these are the first lines of a poem I wrote recently. I usually sit on rough drafts for several days, weeks or months - then polish before sharing publicly - these few lines feel needed now though. #writing #unity #kindness is #resistance #courage #respectful #poetry

Tourism in Japan - Geisha, Photography and 「心のフィルムにやきつけた」

My thoughts on 'Overtourism' in Japan particularly affecting local communities like the Art-Culture: Geisha community.

Photography with consent and respect in public places ensures that photography is an enjoyable activity for everyone involved.
Consent may not be legally necessary, but it's a standard that people should seek as respect to other fellow people.
Where consent is rejected, then it is rejected.
Where consent couldn't be sought, then be respectful in your approach - are they showing their disapproval by their body language, emotion or other non-verbal gestures?

My photo here - taken from behind a 30-strong crowd of other tourists - back in December 2008.
I couldn't explicitly seek consent, but you can see the difference between when the subject of your photo is open to being photographed vs all the recent videos and photographs taken without consent as seen on Instagram/News

Keep photography open and enjoyable for everyone.
If you miss out the photo opportunity, then don't make a fuss: put down your camera and burn that picture into your mind's film instead.

There are hundreds and thousands of moments that we miss on photographing. If you make a fuss, then you not only miss the opportunity, but you also ruin your mind's film as well.

It’s been quite awhile since the #nickname was officially dropped in 2012, but those additional details are still important for understanding the wider practice of US sports teams appropriating #indigenous #culture.

(1) The strongest predictor of support changing the nickname was perceptions of it being #respectful or #honorable. The obvious conclusion to draw is that in order to change this practice, people have to understand that such symbols do NOT honor their targets.
