Say no to Islamophobia, war and attacks on our civil liberties!

A speech I gave at a rally in Perth, 18th October 2014.

Since the theatrical police raids on the homes of Muslims in September 2014, in the name of security/fighting terrorism, Australia has witnessed a tide of religious bigotry directed at Muslims. This rally, with about 200 people participating, was a public demonstration of opposition to Islamophobia, the government's war drive and attacks on civil liberties, and the use of the terror hysteria to distract community attention from the government's unpopular austerity budget.
