Highsnobiety’s Honors Week is a celebration of the women particularly the trans and BIPOC women who have pushed our culture forward. This Women’s History Month, we’ve tapped six guest curators to go deep on the issues they care about and to spotlight their favorite women and nonbinary creators.
Today, we re kicking off Honors Week with Amrita Hepi, a Bundjalung and Ngāpuhi choreographer and activist making art with experimental dance. In many ways, we couldn t have chosen a more fitting creator to inaugurate a week devoted to championing BIPOC women and non-binary changemakers.

Widjabul Wia-bal traditional custodians are deeply concerned about a rescission motion proposed for Rous County Council’s next meeting on Wednesday 17 February. This motion would overturn the recent decision to cease all work on the Dunoon Dam, rezone the land and begin the disposal of Rocky Creek properties.
‘In December we welcomed the decision to stop the dam which has caused us anxiety for years,’ said spokesperson Cindy Roberts. Senior Elder John Roberts and his niece Cindy Roberts. Photo supplied.
‘After that historic meeting we felt that worry lift, we could breathe easy knowing that the graves of our ancestors and important heritage would not be drowned by the Dunoon Dam,’ she said.
