about

Twelve refugees and asylum seekers have died while in Australia's offshore detention system operating on Manus Island and Nauru since the reintroduction of offshore processing in 2013 under Abbott's "Operation Sovereign Borders". There are many more who either died under previous iterations of similar immigration policies that are currently in place, or were released and died from lack of adequate support, grief, or psychiatric disorders. More will die as long as this barbarous approach to refugees and asylum-seekers continues. This murderous streak that runs through Australian history, unacknowledged, silently terrorising the vulnerable has not gone anywhere in this supposedly compassionate era we are living in and will not go anywhere without a fight. I urge you to please contact the offices of the prime minister, Malcolm Turnbull, or the minister for home affairs, Peter Dutton; though they are both true cowards unfit for office, we must use our voices. This release is free and any money you might wish to pay for it should be donated to the Asylum Seeker's Resource Centre, RISE, Refugee Council of Australia, or any other relevant cause that might benefit those still trapped within the system. Below are links to relevant organisations and information on Australia's asylum policy as well as Turnbull and Dutton's contact pages.
