I raised my experience with the Human Rights Commission, and Race Discrimination Commissioner Chin Tan offered his full support
"The conduct of individuals that is race based, there is no place for it in Australia, but we need to work at it and taking a stand is a very important first step." "Calling it [racism] out is important for a number of reasons. it confronts unacceptable attitudes and behaviours and it is saying, 'Hey, this is not OK'," Mr Tan said.Times I should have called racism outAbout a decade ago, I was reading news headlines as an ABC journalist in Newcastle when a talkback caller managed to get to air, only to slam me racially.
Let's hope that in the coming years all these new arrivals will get the hint a go back home.
What are the chances of a Bantu woman in a pool in a small suburb in Newcastle being spotted and identified by a couple of white South African teenagers that remember a song from the distant past. It doesn't add up.
If shd never forgets it , then she will see it again & again .
More divisive shit from the ABC. How about giving it a rest for one day of the year?
Can't follow U any more. Always the same type of stories. Australia is racist, Australia Day is bad. Every year it's the same. Come to Alice Springs if U want to see people attacked for the colour of their skin.
Yeah that is pretty shit, but we should not fear words
Lucky she’s not white and living in South Africa.
Without wanting to be insensitive, what does Aunt Maree mean in this context? I hope she goes back to the pool- most Australians aren't racist-useful to consider all the people that haven't racially vilified this lady- the vast majority in this case. Take strength from that. ❤
What about the Bushfire victims LivingInTents ThreeMonths AfterFires WheresTheMoney AussieMedia NotReporting BushFireVictims
She is an alleged victim, there was no proof put forward that is she was a actual victim. is there any witnesses or CCT footage to back up her series of events? And What child uses the word upper class? it’s not the 1800s😂
Australians can & should do better than that.
GiselleWak I’m so sorry this happened to you. I read the whole article and am weeping as I write. Stay strong and may you and your fine son find happiness.
How on earth would central coast teenagers know those derogatory words? I know young, educated adults who barely know anything about apartheid. I’m shocked.
A teenager called her a mean name and she makes it seem like she was publicly lynched. Don't be so fragile.
