SUMMARY:Care/Resist: Merawat Diri Kita & Perlawanan (Care/Resist: Taking Care of Ourselves & Resistance)
DESCRIPTION:“Caring for myself is not self-indulgence\, is a self-preservation. And that is an act of political warfare” – Audre Lorde \nHow have we been finding ourselves and our communities in recent days? Audre Lorde reminds us that self-care and collective care are inseparable parts of our resistance. In commemoration of IDAHOBIT 2026\, PurpleCode Collective and Kolektif Merawat Ingatan present a space to share stories\, feelings\, and hopes about the interweaving of care and resistance by watching and reflecting on the documentary A Litany for Survival: The Life and Work of Audre Lorde (1995\, Third World News Reel\, restored version) and a short film compilation by Koalisi Kebebasan Berserikat (KKB). \nThe session will continue with a creative response activity co-facilitated by the organizers\, where participants are encouraged to respond to the life and works of Audre Lorde and the three short films through writing\, creating\, or other forms of response.

As our region continues to be ravished by conflicted inflicted by the US and Israel continuing patterns of colonialism and destruction\, today we revolt\, and we use our street language to say FCK homophobia\, FCK l’homophobie and in our tongue ك س م الهوموفوبيا\nWe intentionally used street language\, passing under META radar through missing vowels and irregular text spacing (arabic) the colonizer who brought homophobia into our communities understands only street language\, and we are here to stand our ground\nThe song we used is also a very popular underground song\, where the singer asks her lover that they elope\, in our case it was a perfect match: “Baby\, would you like us to get married in secret\, and go live away from everyone…”

SUMMARY:Podcast episode about IDAHOBIT
DESCRIPTION:The International Day against Homophobia\, Biphobia and Transphobia is observed every year on the 17th May to show solidarity and take action for LGBT equality. \nIn 2021\, Scotland made history in becoming the first country in the world to commit to embedding LGBT inclusive education across the curriculum\, for all ages. But Scotland’s journey is far from a linear story of progress\, and we still have a lot of work to do. \nTaking a closer look at this journey serves as a good reminder of the importance of IDAHOBIT – and the importance of continuing to address the underlying attitudes and behaviours\, in order for us to have a more fair and equal education system. \nIn the latest episode of our Still We Rise podcast\, EIS National Officer (Equality) Selma Augestad talks to Jordan and Liam from Time for Inclusive Education about IDAHOBIT\, Scotland’s journey to LGBT inclusive education and our joint plans to tackle the new threat of rising prejudicial disinformation.
