  6. What is driving racism, hate and violence against Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people?

    * "The Voice campaign...brought racism many First Nations people experience daily to the fore."

    A parliamentary inquiry "follows several violent incidents, including the attack on Camp Sovereignty in Melbourne in August 2025 (and importantly, a new attack on August 2 2026), and the alleged attempted bombing of an Invasion Day rally in Perth."

    "At public hearings around the country, First Nations people and organisations have described racism in workplaces, schools, public institutions and online. They have also warned racist abuse is becoming more open, more organised and easier to spread."

    "...Political campaigns don’t just reflect existing prejudice. They can create moments when hostile ideas become easier to express, repeat and share.Around Anzac Day and the March for Australia, more than 96% of the hate detected directly targeted First Nations identity. White supremacist claims (that is, posts implying or explicitly asserting the superiority of White, settler or European Australians) and dehumanising language made up almost 90% of the total hateful posts.Around March for Australia alone, white supremacy accounted for 69% of detected hate."

    "The findings show something important: online hate follows recognisable patterns. It builds around political campaigns, public controversies and events connected with national identity."

    "The parliamentary inquiry now has an opportunity to move from recognising the problem to acting on the evidence. " >>

  7. Have you at any time... rewritten the settler narrative?
    Foundational narratives facing the murder board

    “When historians talk about reframing a traditional narrative, we don’t mean erasing it...We mean adding the evidence, the voices, the objects, that earlier tellings left out, so that more Americans can see themselves reflected in the national story.” >>

    * Rentierism
    describes an economic or political system where individuals, corporations, or even governments generate wealth by controlling and extracting "rents" from scarce assets, rather than by creating new products or services

    * Financialisation
    "is the process by which financial markets, institutions, and motives gain increasing influence over the broader economy, society, and corporate decision-making. It represents a shift from an industrial economy—where profits are generated primarily by producing goods and services—toward one driven by financial engineering, speculation, and wealth.

    * Expansionism
    Go West - Westward movement refers to the historic 19th-century migration of American settlers to the Pacific coast. Driven by "Manifest Destiny". Colonialism is the physical practice of establishing settlements and taking direct political control over a foreign territory,

  9. Illumination in dark times
    A genealogy of modern Western selfhood and a post-Western world

    "Smith ... outlines a genealogy of modern Western selfhood: a radically individual, hypermasculine character that was formed during the rapid nineteenth-century expansion of the white man’s world. “Bold, conquering, and altogether assertive,” it was “dedicated to action,” hostile to reflection, indifferent to community and the environment, and guilty of possessing, Smith writes, an “undeveloped heart,” a term borrowed from E. M. Forster’s assessment of the British elite." "

    " “We must alter our very relations with the world around us.” This means giving up the exalted and exaggerated idea of the West that boosts a masculinist self-image but severely constricts thought and feeling. “We should welcome our era’s uncertainties,...the not-knowing of how the post-Western story will come out.” Smith’s final warning—that “we will not survive the Western notion of the individual much longer”—should resonate today, as nineteenth-century individualism reasserts itself in the degraded Nietzscheanism of Peter Thiel and Stephen Miller." >>

  10. Social cohesion and gritted-teeth tolerance

    "In 2022, for the first time in decades, the government commissioned a review of multiculturalism, Towards Fairness. It found Australia had muddled on, but squandered its world-leading status and recommended the government create a minister, a permanent commission and department for multiculturalism. Labor MP Dr Anne Aly was appointed multicultural affairs minister in 2025."

    She delivered a powerful speech last November:

    "Aly declared it was time to end “the conditional form of multiculturalism, that kind of gritted-teeth tolerance that,

    'You are welcome here as long as your food tastes good,

    your celebrations are colourful, and

    your music is present to the ears.’"

    "But any questioning, any speaking out, any disruptive participation in any practice of citizenship will not be tolerated. Instead, acts of citizenship afforded to the broader community are viewed as acts of defiance when performed by the other and are met with cries of, ‘Go back to where you came from,’ and ‘Love Australia or leave it.’ " >>

  13. Truth-telling and justice

    * “I can understand how Corowa is now known as the place where we have 40 neo-Nazis march up and down our main street on a Saturday morning. Now we’re starting to remove flags. I can understand how someone can see it cascading.”

    * "The rise in voting support for One Nation, which mirrors the success of populist politicians in the United States and United Kingdom, provides further evidence of the rise of a more hardline, right-wing populism, which often celebrates rather than questions the history of European imperialism.”

  14. Are 'ordinary mums and dads' making 'bad apples' ?
    Caught up in tight-knit webs of hate

    “There was a range of grievances on display about perceived immigration rates on Sunday, but it was clear for many that the return to an imagined white Australia was a central theme...It’s not that white supremacy, which was present clearly yesterday, is something that the neo-Nazis in some evil, secretive fashion introduced into the political mainstream. It is something that has always been present in parts of the mainstream." >>
    theguardian.com/australia-news

    "The March for Australia’s racism can’t just be blamed on far-right ‘extremists’ - it has been enabled by the mainstream." >>

  15. "Indigenous leaders have called for Sunday's attack on Aboriginal protest site Camp Sovereignty to be investigated as a hate crime."

    "Counterterrorism police will help investigate the attack, according to the Victorian government. About 40 men dressed in black, some armed with flagpoles and sticks and led by known Neo-Nazi Thomas Sewell, violently attacked Camp Sovereignty following Sunday's anti-immigration March for Australia rally. "

  16. Bat-wielding gangs and a sense of decline

    "Camp Sovereignty organisers said four people were injured in the incident, which they said was unprovoked. The Victorian government has condemned an attack on a First Nations protest camp in Melbourne by far-right demonstrators following an anti-immigration rally.They came armed with poles to attack a group of predominantly women at a peace camp,"

    abc.net.au/news/2025-09-01/cam

    "A group of men, including some members of neo-Nazi group the National Socialist Network, attacked the standing First Nations protest site, Camp Sovereignty, in Melbourne’s Kings Domain on Sunday evening, Four people required medical attention and two were taken to hospital with severe head injuries, one with a deep gash to their head, the camp said...They alleged the men yelled slogans such as “white power” and “white man’s land”, as well as sexist and racist slurs."

    "Schlagertruppen" (bat-wielding gangs)
    or "fighting troops". Examples include right-wing Freikorps and later, Sturmabteilung (SA), which engaged in political violence and were instrumental in the rise of Nazism.
