This panel discussion was recorded following a screening of the Khaled Hourani's film Picasso in Palestine (2012). Hear Miriam Deprez (photojournalist and PhD candidate, Griffith University), Dr Jamal Nabulsi (diaspora Palestinian writer and researcher), and Remah Naji (Member, Justice for Palestine, Magan-djin) in conversation, facilitated by Dr Samid Suliman (Senior Lecturer, Migration and Security at Griffith University).
This discussion contextualises the film against the decades-long history of the occupation of Palestine, reflects on the im/mobilities that it documents, and instigates an important discussion of the role and duty of the arts to act (transnationally and transversally) against dispossession, occupation, state violence, and genocide.

Audio Meditation | Kylie Caldwell: How to meet a plant
Casino Wake Up Time member, Kylie Caldwell, shares three poems which she has written about native plants and the diverse waterways which sustain them on Bundjalung country in the Northern Rivers.
Nanna You Remember! is a poem about wetlands, and the animals and plants within these wetlands. It’s a place where the weaving fibre, buckie rush, is collected. Kylie shares that wetlands are one of the most valuable ecosystems which act as reservoirs to collect water during big rains, reducing the effects of flooding. They protect coastal areas from storm surges by securing fragile soil and sand, and purify water by acting as a filter. Kylie dedicates this poem to her ancestors, who held a wealth of knowledge about these ecosystems.
Picking Again is a poem about Casino Wake Up Time collecting rushes and other plants for weaving.
A Survivor is a poem about lomandra, a plant that plays a significant role in supporting the banks of rivers and creeks and keeping these waters healthy and strong.
