I recently came across this website:
http://www.australiansall.com.au/australias-dangerous-fantasy/
It's by Eva Sallis, called "Australia's Dangerous Fantasy."
It deals with racism, and the kind of society we want to
have in Australia. It was first published in, The New York
Times, Dec. 2005, updated Nov. 2006. I think it's still
relevant today. As Sallis sums up:
"...A volatile part of our community is living in deep
alienation, unable to belong, and another volatile part is living
back in the irretrievable past with a fantasy of an all-white
Australia. If contemporary Australians are to live at ease with
ourselves, we need more education, less fear mongering and, not
least, greater honesty about the culture of racism that is so
damaging us."
