RACISM IN AFL
EUNOIA by Bell
Episode notes
WHAT A GAME! It doesn't come as surprising Australian rules football is in the constant spotlight of the ever occurring racial attacks towards Australian Indigenous players. In the significant moments such as Adam Goodes being called an "ap*," from a young Collingwood fan. Nicky Winmar creating a snapshot in history, raising his jersey. Feeling proud of his heritage.
There has always been an unconscious negative bias cast upon the indigenous players and the general public has sadly accepted as the new norm. There are deeply embedded levels of racial structures in Australia and it's now time to re-educate before we fail our young generation.
In this episode your host, Bell. Will talk about the generations of racial structures in Australia that have carried into its sports, AFL.
