2 days agoIt’s amazing how much isn’t taught in school. And I know that won’t be surprising to those in other colonial states like the US and Canada but we learned about US segregation, Jim Crow, read/watched To Kill A Mockingbird, but didn’t know we’ve had the same kind of de facto segregated towns here in Australia within living history, complete with our own Freedom Ride in 1965. Luckily the union movement and communists eventually put a dent in it through boycotts and shoved the government into action.
Out of touch, exactly. We aren’t the target audience.
