Kia Ora! Apologies for a lack of regular new issues for the past few months. We’re a small team here at Partisan and life gets in the way of things pretty easily.
Nevertheless, we’re resuming our monthly bulletin here and starting in a week you’ll see a fresh new series of articles. Thanks for waiting, see you soon. -The Editors Now, onto the important stuff… Living Wage University Council Action | VUW For Living Wage Where: Victoria University Council chambers When: Monday the 16th of June at 8:45am (meeting in the Hunter courtyard off Kelburn parade) What: Victoria University refuses to pay over 500 of its workers a living wage. By definition, that’s 500 people who are not being paid enough to live off of for their labour. This is completely reprehensible, as is the university’s consistent refusal to so much as acknowledge the issue. Students, teachers, university workers and others who stand in solidarity with the underpaid workers and against their mistreatment will be “attending” Victoria University’s council meeting this Monday morning as a group to make our feelings heard and to call on the University administration to pay their workers enough to live with dignity. Find out more at https://fb.me/e/288q21XQx All Out for Gaza Where: Te Papa Museum Courtyard (Marching to Parliament) When: Thursday the 27th of June at 11am What: Palestinian solidarity demonstrators from all across Aotearoa are coming to Wellington for a mass protest, calling on the government to stand against the genocide of Palestinians by condemning and sanctioning Israel, granting visas to Palestinian refugees and recognising Palestinian statehood. They’re calling on anyone who can make it to gather outside Te Papa museum at 11am on the 27th of June, from where we will march to Parliament. For more information, head to https://fb.me/e/csZHWGD56 Seminar: The Crisis in New Caledonia and the Struggle for an Independent Kanakay | Workers’ Educational Association Where: Trades Hall, 124 Vivian St, Te Aro When: Tuesday the 17th of June at 6pm What: One of a series of “radical seminars” held in Trades Hall and put on by the Wellington Workers Educational Association. This seminar, given by senior lecturer of Pacific History at Victoria University Dr. Adrian Muckle, concerns the current uprising of indigenous Kanak people against French colonialism in Kanakay.
