Ethan Floyd on Freedom, Fear, and the Flotilla Honi Soit
Violence and the Kuyili Karthik State of Exception Trauma Healer
The Global Sumud Flotilla is a civilian-led humanitarian aid effort which aims to break Israel’s illegal naval blockade of Gaza. Ethan Floyd is a Wiradjuri, Ngiyampaa,
and Wailwan activist, student at the University of Sydney, and ex-Honi Soit editor. They will be joining the Global Sumud Flotilla in the middle of April.
The instruments of violence are legitimate only when they are wielded by the agents of the state. The irony is that the sacrificial ritual has transmuted into
a bureaucratic architecture of violence, where the state stands at the altar, playing the role of executioner, judge, and jury.
