Adelaide Voices has always championed the Palestinian cause, acknowledging the Palestinian people’s ongoing struggle for recognition and redress under their occupation by the Zionist apartheid regime.

Adelaide Voices’ most recent issue headlines an article giving voice to the magnificent Palestinian speakers Adelaide Writer’s Week was privileged to host  in March this year. After concerted and strident attempts to silence the voices of these authors, our paper wanted to give an added pathway for people who could not attend in person to hear their voices in their own words, describing their lived experience of life under daily brutality.

The distinguished dissident Israeli historian Ilan Pappe, contends that Palestinian civil society was ripe to become a State, before its potential was cut off by the British repression of the Great Arab Rebellion (1936-39) and the ethnic cleansing of Palestine during the Nakba catastrophe.

We have 42 photographs of late Mandate Palestine (1920-1948), and are exploring how they might be published.

In April of 2024 I will be taking 3 months to walk from Parliament House Perth, Western Australia to Parliament House Adelaide, South Australia - a trip of some 2,700km.

The walk will help to increase awareness of the Palestinian cause for justice, self-determination and human rights and raise money for a program supported by the Near East Council of Churches.
