  • Heritier Lumumba Reclaimed His Name and Found Strength in African History
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Heritier Lumumba reclaimed his name and found strength in African history. Will it change Collingwood and the AFL? By Russell Jackson 5 Dccember 2020 Former Collingwood star Heritier Lumumba now lives in South Los Angeles, where he's surrounded by black culture and thought.(Supplied: Renae Wootson/Milan Wiley) On May 31, 2020, a sea of people filled the streets of the Fairfax District in Los Angeles. Five police helicopters circled above their heads. Two LAPD squad cars were set alight and burned. Days earlier, the world had watched George Floyd take his last breaths. Now emotions reached boiling point — anger expressed in a cacophony of dissent. Riot police arrived with rubber bullets, batons and tear gas. Played through car windows and chanted by the crowd was the anthem of the uprising, YG and Nipsey Hussle's 'FDT': "F*** Donald Trump!" Two hundred metres away, a 33-year-old man and his wife anxiously peered out their window, their one-year-old son playing with a toy truck. In the days that followed, they 2 would join the crowds on the streets of LA, demanding an end to the dehumanisation of black lives. In another time, the man achieved fame as a sporting champion in a foreign land — an All-Australian footballer, a premiership hero of the Collingwood Football Club. Now he marched upright, a bandana shielding his face from the pandemic sweeping the planet, a Congolese flag draped over his shoulders. "I read the words 'BLACK LIVES MATTER', surrounding me at every angle imaginable, and my mind turned to my family in the Democratic Republic of Congo," Heritier Lumumba says.

  • Should the AFL Ban Booing? What They Said… The
    Should the AFL ban booing? What they said… ‘Each and every one of us understands there’s a point where it’s a step too far…Pull ourselves back from that, but otherwise enjoy your time at the footy and make sure that everybody feels included and safe’ The AFL's head of football, Steve Hocking, expressing his belief that fans know what is appropriate ‘We know the toll it takes on players; we read about it every other week. We affect to care, but don’t. Concerning umpires, we don’t even pretend. We just boo’ Sports commentator for The Age, Greg Baum, commenting on fans’ indifference to the effect of booing The issue at a glance On April 25, 2019, Collingwood defeated Essendon in the ANZAC Day game at the MCG. After the game, Collingwood captain, Scott Pendlebury, was awarded the Anzac Medal as the game's best player; however, Essendon fans booed throughout his acceptance speech. https://www.msn.com/en-au/news/other/booing-controversy-hits-afl-as-abuse-of- collingwood-captain-scott-pendlebury-tarnishes-anzac-day-game-as-his-coach-says-fans- should-be-ashamed/ar-BBWhQcW Collingwood coach Nathan Buckley then chastised those that took part in the booing, stating, 'Shame on anyone that booed a champion - (I'd) just like to acknowledge the fact that we are blessed to have an opportunity to play on this day to represent the AFL.’ The booing was seen by some as particularly concerning as it came directly after that directed at Geelong’s Gary Ablett during the game against Hawthorn on Easter Monday, April 22, 2019.
