Racism in the context of Australian Multicuturality

1. Dorothy and her dog Toto are caught in a
tornado's path and somehow end up in the
magical, beautiful, dangerous and technicolor
land of Oz …

2. Cultural Diversity…
Always accepted?
Presented by Oscar Trujillo

3. Australia is one of the best places in the
world to live while you learn. The standard
of living is amongst the highest in the
world, yet costs remain competitive. On
your breaks from study, you will have a
wide choice of activities to enrich your
experience - from cultural festivals,
concerts and museums, to major sporting
events.

4. Australia has a unique history that has shaped the
diversity of its peoples, their cultures and lifestyles
today.
Three major contributors to Australia's demographic
make up are
a diverse Indigenous population,
a British colonial past and
extensive immigration

7. Racism is the belief that race is the primary determinant of
human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce
an inherent superiority of a particular race. In the case of
institutional racism, certain racial groups may be denied rights
or benefits, or get preferential treatment.
Four steps to combat racism and related intolerance:
An quot;integral education that includes ethical and spiritual valuesquot;
that quot;favour the empowermentquot; of vulnerable groups.
The need for a quot;new examination aimed at making the various
approaches more incisive and efficient.quot;
The universal ratification of major instruments against racism
and discrimination.
Fair national legislation that explicitly condemns all forms of
racism and discrimination and enables all citizens to participate
publicly in the life of their country on the basis of equality in
both duties and rights.quot;

8. quot;Without a Change of Heart,
Laws Are Not Effectivequot;
