Great crowd last night at the Pacific Human Rights Film Festival to watch YUMI, the brave story of how USP students inspired a global movement to demand accountability for climate change at the ICJ. Inspiring story.
In this is why I love that Fiji requires you to have a permit for your “protesting”
Do that thing in your own spaces and stop pushing it on everyone else.
