The Impact of Australian Immigration Policies on Multiculturalism.docxZunaisha1
Australia Australia, popularly known as the "Land Down Under," is a country noted for both its astounding natural vistas and its extraordinary dedication to multiculturalism. It serves as evidence of how many cultures, customs, and peoples can live in peace with one another. But this colorful mosaic of multiculturalism did not appear by accident. Instead, it is the result of intentional and developing Australian immigration policies that, through time, have shaped the very core of the country's character.
It was in the year 1840 that Chinese first came to Australia and the root cause of the same is attributed to the migration of criminals to the city of New South Wales. Then, it as in the 20th century that the migration from China to Australia grew much. In one of the reports of 1950s, it was seen that during 1854 there were about 2341 people from China who immigrated to Victoria. But, just 3 years later in the year 1857, the same number increased to over 30,000. During 1858-1859 the number of immigrants increased to 42,000 (Lockwood 1964). There were other places as well where Chinese people immigrated like Queensland and New South Wales. It was mainly because of the goldfield in Australia that Chinese people immigrated here. There were immigrants who managed to get into the manufacturing industry and there were some who ran their own gardens and sold fruits and vegetables
What is multiculturalism from below? What makes people live well with diversity in everyday life? How do ‘transversal enablers’ assist in situations of everyday multiculturalism? In what ways do multicultural subjects react to those who deny them a space in contemporary ‘super diverse’ societies? In what ways do people live their multiculturalism ‘from below’?
Australia has a long and complex history of immigration, with waves of migrants arriving on its shores from many different parts of the world over the course of several centuries. The indigenous peoples of Australia, the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, have lived on the continent for tens of thousands of years, but the first recorded European settlement did not occur until 1788.
The Racial State - Mobility and change Alana Lentin
Australia is often referred to as a society of immigrants and, since the 1970s, as a multicultural society. We shall look at the evolution from ‘White Australia’ to modern multiculturalism, and beyond, at the current ‘crisis of multiculturalism’. We shall also look at the problematic relationship between multiculturalism and Aboriginal claims for recognition. This shall lead us to question what forms race take today in a rapidly changing Australia. In particular, how does the immigration system, with its emphasis on ‘skilled migration’, contribute to writing a particular version of the national story and citizenship, one that arguably is still ‘raced’.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

7. White Australia Policy (1880-1973)
• Origins in anti-Chinese activism on the goldfields in mid-1800s and use of
Pacific Islander labour in Qld.
• An Act ‘to place certain restrictions on immigration and to provide for the
removal from the Commonwealth of prohibited immigrants’.
• Also restricted migration of criminals, disabled, mentally ill, those likely to
be a welfare burden, and ‘those of loathsome character’.
• Recent historians such as Alison Bashford and Henry Reynolds connect it to
the Eugenics Movement.
• Enforced with a dictation test that could be given in any European
language.
• In the first half of the 20th Century, the White Australia Policy was in full
force and widely popular.
• In 1919 PM Billy Hughes hailed it as ‘the greatest thing we have achieved’.
8. Assimilation Policy (1946-1960s)
• Immigration Department established in 1945.
• After WW2 ‘Populate or Perish’ became a key slogan
• New arrivals of diverse European origins (‘New Australians’ or ‘reffos’)
required as quickly as possible to:
• learn English
• adopt Australian cultural practices
• become indistinguishable from the Australian-born.
• The Good Neighbour Movement provided support at a
neighbourhood level help to new arrivals adopt the Australian
lifestyle.
9. Integration Policy (1960s-early 1970s)
• At the 1959 Citizenship Convention the notion of integration was first
introduced.
• Reflected an awareness that the first generation of immigrants was
unlikely to assimilate completely and their adaptation would be more
effective if their cultural needs were recognised.
• Began to recognise that:
• bilingualism was an advantage
• "older" Australians could learn from new migrants as well as teach them
• migrants should be recognised for their contribution to the development of
the Australian economy.
10. Multiculturalism Policy (late 1980s-present)
• First introduced at a federal level with state and territory governments
have subsequently developing their own multicultural policy.
• Key policy shift for Whitlam and then Fraser governments who were facing
increased migration from Asia.
• Core ideas:
• Individuals and communities should maintain their cultural/ethnic/religious identify
• Australian society more broadly should be tolerant and welcoming of diversity
• Barriers to full participation in society on the basis of ethnicity/religion/culture
should be removed
• Needs of migrants should be met by programs and services available to the whole
community and special services.
11. Reactions to Multiculturalism (late 1990s-present)
• Multiculturalism has been a contested policy and concept since its
introduction in Australia in the 1970s.
• Late-1990s debate focused strongly on Asian migration and
integration.
• One Nation Party
• Cabramatta as a hotbed of Vietnamese gang crime
• 2000s debate shifted to concern about Islamic terrorism and the
challenges of ensuring social cohesion.
• Cronulla Riots
• Boat People, Queue Jumpers, Border Protection
