Black Peoples Union
The Black Peoples Union is a revolutionary organisation that aims to empower Indigenous people in so-called Australia to pursue full self-determination and Sovereignty.
They collate, create and provide an enormous number of educational resources that are invaluable to all who are working to understand racism, colonialism, capitalism and resistance. We highly recommend their library of resources for all looking to sharpen their critical thinking skills, political analysis, and understanding of First Nations’ Sovereignty.
All of their resources are available for free, however we strongly recommend making a one-off or regular donation to support their work and their communities.
Independent Indigenous journalism focusing on justice as defined by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander People.
“BLACK WITNESS is a Substack publication that has gone through many iterations over the years. It began during the COVID-19 pandemic, launching during the historic Black Lives Matter protests, and has continued under a couple of different names like ‘Presence’ and ‘Black Justice Journalism’. It was always my intention to use this platform as a form of independent media which centred on fighting for Indigenous rights and uplifting voices of Black Witnesses.
The website takes its name from my book Black Witness: The Power of Indigenous Media, published by University of Queensland Press. The book critiqued the violence of Western imperial media and argued for the foregrounding and centring of the Black Witness, who is continually spoken over, for and is deemed illegitimate or disbelieved unless first accepted by the White Witness.
It is my belief that diversifying imperial and colonial media was never the answer. In fact, black media has been aligned with Indigenous advocacy and activism, and it has always been used in the fight.“

The Sunday Paper is an anti-imperialist print periodical and podcast. The most recent issue “The Pitfalls of Liberalism” includes a piece by one of our co-founders.
The Sunday Paper was born during the popular uprisings of May 2021 as an art project and an act of protest. Specifically, it was created in opposition to Zionist-owned Schwartz Media, a company that has for years monopolised ‘progressive’ media, weaponising its power and influence to suffocate criticism of the Zionist entity.
Print media is a powerful way to inform and resource communities. The Sunday Paper is totally reader funded, and refuses corporate funding or influence.
We highly recommend this series of zines produced by Keiran Stewart-Assheton under Yillamin. They are fantastic, accessible educational resources, engaging with a range of topics in easy to understand language.
