Claims of anti-white or “reverse” racism are based on a shallow, misguided and inaccurate understanding of what racism really constitutes.
‘Reverse racism’ focuses on prejudiced attitudes towards a certain (racialised) group, or unequal personal treatment. But it ignores one of racism’s central markers: power.
The far-right claims mainstream media is the “enemy of the people” but they are happy to use mainstream platforms to spread their message.
Muslims in Australia need to be recognised as full and equal citizens whose faith is not an obstacle to citizenship.
