Stand Up for Multicultural Communities
|
Racism will not divide us
Moreland Community - Rally and March 12pm SAT April 1st Crn Glenlyon and Sydney Rd (Outside Brunswick Town Hall) After ten years of playing the race card, Howard and Costello have made recent comments singling out Muslims as antagonistic to "Australian culture". Tony Abbott, recently interviewed on Lateline said that," the purpose of multiculturalism is not to say that all cultures are equal". These comments represent new heights in promoting community division. This new wave of divisive politics deserves a community response. The Moreland area typifies multicultural Australia. Let set an example and send a message that Muslims and migrants are welcome in our community. More info: Socialist Alliance Wills Branch | Jody Betzien 0425 887 078 |
