Acknowledgement

We acknowledge Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the Traditional Custodians of the lands on which we live, work and tell stories. We pay our respects to Elders past and present and extend that respect to all First Nations peoples.

Sovereignty was never ceded. This always was and always will be Aboriginal land.
What We Stand For

The Mantrums stand with all women—including trans women, First Nations women, women of colour, disabled women, queer women, migrant and refugee women, sex workers, and women of every faith or none. We also stand with non-binary and gender-diverse people harmed by the same systems of inequality.

We reject racism, misogyny, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, and every system that forces one group to have less so another can keep power. Feminism that excludes the most marginalised is not feminism.

We are here to challenge power, amplify voices pushed aside, and help burn the patriarchy down thoughtfully, loudly, and together.
