  • Racial Discrimination
    Individuals 329 IX INDIVIDUALS Discrimination - racial discrimination - International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination - Articles 4 and 14 - Australian implementation On 21 August 1990 the Attorney-General, Mr Duffy, provided the following written answer in part to a question on notice (HR Deb 1990, Vol 172, p 1214): The only State which to date has legislated against racial vilification is New South Wales, which did so in 1989. No. Australia has made a reservation to Article 4. It is still too early to assess the effectiveness of the NSW legislation, and the Government is also awaiting the report of the Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Commission's National Inquiry into Racist Violence. Article 14 of the Convention provides for States Parties to declare their recognition of the competence of the UN Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination to receive and consider communications from individuals and groups within that State Party who have exhausted all available domestic remedies. Australia has not to date made such a declaration, but the issue is one that is on the agenda of the Standing Committee of Attorney-General for consideration, together with the related issues of the Optional Protocol to the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (the ICCPR) and the declaration that may be made under Article 41 of the ICCPR. On 21 December 1990 the Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade, Senator Gareth Evans, provided the following written answer in part to a question on notice (HR Deb 1990, Vol174, pp 4999-5000): Since 1983, the Australian Government has undertaken extensive consultations with the State and Territory Governments in relation to accession to the First Optional Protocol, both individually and through the Standing Committee of Attorneys-General.

    Bordering (on) Racism Migration, Division, and Consent in Australia By DANIEL COTTON Department of Political Economy Honours Thesis: Submitted as partial requirement for the degree of BACHELOR OF ARTS (HONOURS), Political Economy, University of Sydney. 11TH OCTOBER 2017 STATEMENT This work contains no material which has been accepted for the award of another degree or diploma in any university, and to the best of my knowledge and belief, this thesis contains no material previously published or written by another person except where due references is made in the text of the thesis. i DEDICATION AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS hank you to the Gadigal people of the Eora nation, on whose country I lived and breathed throughout this thesis. Their fight against the brutal imposition of a Tborder erected to exclude them from their own country, ongoing since day one of colonialism, remains an inspiration for all who challenge the colonial border which delineates ‘Australia’. Thanks to the Solidarity comrades and Canberra refugee activists who opened my eyes to the cruelty of borders, and with whom I stand in the fight against them. Special thanks to Geraldine who first challenged me with the case for open borders. Thanks to Stucco Housing Co-operative for providing an oasis of liveability in this menacing and exorbitantly expensive city. Thanks to my friends there who fed, sup- ported, and encouraged me. Especially to Lilia whose company escorted me through so many days and nights of study and my roommates who got me through the last trying days of thesis-writing. Thanks to the Political Economy department and those who fought to have it estab- lished as a bastion of critical economics.

  • Damascus Christos Tsiolkas
    AUSTRALIA NOVEMBER 2019 Damascus Christos Tsiolkas The stunningly powerful new novel from the author of The Slap. Description 'They kill us, they crucify us, they throw us to beasts in the arena, they sew our lips together and watch us starve. They bugger children in front of fathers and violate men before the eyes of their wives. The temple priests flay us openly in the streets and the Judeans stone us. We are hunted everywhere and we are hunted by everyone. We are despised, yet we grow. We are tortured and crucified and yet we flourish. We are hated and still we multiply. Why is that? You must wonder, how is it we survive?' Christos Tsiolkas' stunning new novel Damascus is a work of soaring ambition and achievement, of immense power and epic scope, taking as its subject nothing less than events surrounding the birth and establishment of the Christian church. Based around the gospels and letters of St Paul, and focusing on characters one and two generations on from the death of Christ, as well as Paul (Saul) himself, Damascus nevertheless explores the themes that have always obsessed Tsiolkas as a writer: class, religion, masculinity, patriarchy, colonisation, refugees; the ways in which nations, societies, communities, families and individuals are united and divided - it's all here, the contemporary and urgent questions, perennial concerns made vivid and visceral. In Damascus, Tsiolkas has written a masterpiece of imagination and transformation: an historical novel of immense power and an unflinching dissection of doubt and faith, tyranny and revolution, and cruelty and sacrifice.

    children’s cancer research unit 2018A year in review A Year in Review: Children’s Cancer Research Unit The Children’s Cancer Research Unit (CCRU) published their inaugural Year in Review in 2017 and now offers you 2018. You will find details of our research accomplishments, teachings, advocacy and fundraising activities as we strive to improve childhood cancer treatment and survival for children like Chase (pictured on the cover). Chase was diagnosed with a Wilms Tumour, a rare kidney cancer, in March 2018 when he was four years old. Over a 12-month period Chase had surgery to remove his left kidney, endured 16 cycles of chemotherapy and 25 blood transfusions. His brave, cheeky smile on the cover was captured by hospital photographers during his treatment at The Children’s Hospital at Westmead. The CCRU laboratories study genes underpinning childhood cancer, including Wilms tumours in patients like Chase in order to determine if there is a genetic predisposition. Chase is currently in remission. Thank you to all our staff, patients, families, carers, and photographers at The Children’s Hospital Westmead who contributed images to this document.
