Tomorrow I will be attending the Annual Juanita Neilsen Memorial Lecture, the 15th of its kind.

Juanita Neilsen was the publisher of NOW, a newspaper distributed in Kings Cross during the 1970's.

She opposed high rise development in the Cross and the destruction of old Victorian houses that used line it's streets. She published these views in NOW, and was kidnapped and murdered by thugs in the pay of big developers. No one has ever been charged with her murder.

The guest speaker will be Maha Abdo a Muslim woman speaking on Muslim women owning their own narrative without fear of being different. I am very much looking forward.

Now I'll just go smoke my denim jacket and pop a few HEMP buttons. Goodness me. Kidding, as if you didn't know, ha ha
