Slutwalk Narrm/Melbourne

Queering The Air

On this episode of Queering The Air, we’re excited to introduce you a long time volunteer from SlutWalkMelbourne, Mev. Mev discussed the significance of the event and provided us with a comprehensive overview of its history. Sasja and Mev delved into why this rally is so important.Mev (she/they) is a neurodivergent queer creative and activist living and working here on stolen Wurundjeri land. They’ve been volunteering with the SlutWalk Naarm/Melbourne collective for years, motivated and informed by a history of trauma.They believe in the importance of continuously learning and improving, valuing human rights, consent education, intersectional feminism, anti-racism, decolonisation, LGBTQIA+ rights, decriminalisation of sex work, accessibility, mental health, environmental sustainability and animal rights.Join SlutWalk Naarm/Melbourne on 25 November 2023 to march against slut-shaming, victim-blaming, and rape culture in the CBD. This global movement started in Canada in 2011 after offensive comments by a police officer. SlutWalks have since taken place worldwide, including annually in Naarm/Melbourne for 12 years. The demands are simple: end slut-shaming, victim-blaming, and rape culture. We fight against all forms of bigotry and hierarchy. Let’s prioritise survivors and our lives over profit. We’ve seen the prevalence of rape culture in recent news stories, and it’s time to stop using rape and assault as weapons of control. Meet outside the State Library Victoria at 12pm, with speakers from diverse backgrounds and Auslan interpreters.https://www.facebook.com/slutwalkmelbourneSLUTWALK NARRM/MELBOURNE25 NOVEMBER 2023 - 12:00PMSTATE LIBRARY VICTORIAMusic:Papi (Bhabi) by Eden ShalevEderlezi feat Dikanda by Dj Dark & MD DJUrfa'nin Etrafi Dumanti Daglar (Anatolian Sessions Remix) by DJ Kaikhan
