Women in Black - Silent Vigil

The regular Vigil for Palestine, this Wednesday 20th August, 5-6pm at Parliament House (Tarndanya). 

This week, in addition to our stance against genocide and the escalation of ethnic cleansing, we remember the brave journalists who have given their lives reporting from the most dangerous parts of Palestine during this genocide, including at least 25 women. Many of them have been deliberately targeted and murdered for their work, along with their families. 

Wear black, bring your flags, candles (fake flame only), keffiyehs, and tributes. Mouth tape and blue PRESS jackets also welcomed, along with the usual signage. 

Join Craig Nielsen for a talk on

Christian Zionism – Christian obligation or Christian heresy?

Women in Black Vigil for Palestine

Wednesday 9 July 5-6pm at Parliament House, Adelaide (on Kaurna Yerta)

With the situation in Palestine and the surrounding region shifting, expanding, and worsening this week, it is more important than ever that we stand as a constant presence for peace and an end to the genocide of the Palestinian people. Bring your keffiyehs and flags, bring candles (fake flame only!), bring like-minded friends, and stand with us. Wear black. No speeches or drums here, this is a silent vigil - our power is in our presence.

It is NAIDOC Week, so please feel free to bring appropriate flags, shirts and accessories to show solidarity to our Indigenous/First Nations communities as well as we support an era of Truth Telling - oppression and genocide are oppression and genocide no matter where the violence occurs, when, or against whom.

#FreePalestine #vigil #peace #CeaseFireForever

All gender identities welcome (keeping in mind that Women in Black is a women-led, feminist organization). No antisemitic, pro-Nazi, racist, Islamophobic, anti-Blak, or violent rhetoric will be tolerated at our events.

Rally, Adelaide/Tarntanya - Free Palestine! Hands off Iran!

Not content with perpetrating genocide in Gaza, Israel has embarked upon “regime change” in Iran. 90 million Iranians now face the likelihood of civil war, and the destruction of their country should Israel succeed. Israel’s attack, now intensified by the US’s egregious and illegal bombings of Iran’s nuclear facilities, is not about Israel’s security it is about Israel’s domination of the region no matter the cost.

The US attack on Iran is outrageous and breaches international and US domestic law, and illustrates again that American Middle East policy is made in Tel Aviv. The UN has been sidelined and reduced to a mere observer and commentator! Western governments offer full support to the US and Israel or complete silence. The Australian Government has demonstrated it completely lacks an independent foreign policy as well as a spine and is not only prepared to support US acts of aggression but act in the interests of a foreign state.

Join your fellow South Australians at this rally at 2pm on Sunday 29 June, to oppose these acts of war that are taking the world to the brink of a nuclear disaster! DEMAND that our government and politicians act now to condemn Israel’s genocide in Gaza and Israel's and the US's attacks on Iran!
