History assignment How have Australian government policies and practices affected patterns of migration and changed Australia since World War Two? Changing government policies and practices have affected pattern of migration to Australia and changed Australia significantly since World War Two. Policies such as ‘populate or perish’ and the ending of the ‘White Australia Policy’ changed Australia from a largely British society to a multicultural one.
A Global Citizen is someone who is informed, purposeful, active, and law-abiding in their community. In “The Cove” Ric O’Barry displays how he is a good global citizen striving to raise awareness for thousands of dolphins being slaughtered across the world. When Ric O’Barry first discovered that twenty-three thousand dolphins get murdered every year in Japan he was horrified. He became an animal activist who does anything to save and raise awareness for dolphins. Although Ric breaks the law he is still an informed, purposeful, and active global citizen.
This analysis looks at refugees and the social justice issue of Australia’s discriminatory treatment of refugees traveling to Australia seeking asylum. Australia’s current treatment of Asylum seekers includes taking them from an already extremely stressful environment and detaining them in remote detention facilities where they have limited interaction with family and friends. In some instances, this includes children and young people. The University western Sydney (2016)
In Australia, refugees and asylum seekers are treated like the enemy in a war: the target of a highly resourced, military-led “deterrence” strategy complete with arbitrary detainment, detention camps, guards to terrorise them, forced deportations and the violent suppression of those who protest. Australia is failing to meet the standards required when regarding the treatment of asylum seekers. It is fact that asylum seekers make up less than 3% of Australia’s annual immigration yet the idea is being distorted to that of which they will overpopulate a country that prides itself on being a multicultural society. I want to shed light on the misconception that asylum seekers are not ‘legal’ when in actual fact it is a human right to seek freedom.
The second passage (b) selected above, shows how patterns of displacement are shaped by biopolitics. Walia describes those displaced as 'those bodies deemed illegal, undesirable and disposable', and the use of the word 'bodies' immediately relates it to biopolitics. The idea that a human being is reduced to simply a 'body', stripped of all sense of self and viewed simply in biological terms, is a view that is distinctly biopolitical. These 'bodies' are seen as 'undesirable and disposable because of the colour of their skin, gender identity, and inability to assimilate into a hegemonic way of life', which highlights the political aspect. These people are treated differently (politically, socially, etc.), because of their biological properties,
Great Evening women and courteous fellows, My names Johnson Tia, I am here to talk around an intense issues, that has put a huge number of individuals at danger of losing their properties, families, companions, friends and family and above all lives. This has gone to a point where it genuinely should be tended to and put to a stop. This issue is developing each day, even presently, it is developing, this issue is something that could go on everlastingly, if not managed. This issue has been distressing for Australia as well as it has left a considerable measure of unanswered inquiries, with respect to why they go to our nation and what they are searching for? Women and respectable men this issue is Refugees and Asylum Seekers.
Introduction Australia is said to be a multicultural and multiracial country. So why can’t we, as a country and as a nation, say yes to immigrants fleeing from a different country? As immigration to Australia is supposably apart of our history and it would be wrong not to continue on with the actions of our ancestors. Paragraph 1 As of 2014 – 2015, Australia accepted 13,750 refugees in total. Paragraph 2 • What are refugees and asylum seekers?
To me, citizenship isn’t just being a person that resides under a title that is shared by others, but to be part of a the community that one resides under. Members of communities are essentially citizens, and they dedicate themselves to putting the interests of their communities in front of their own. The same ideas apply to earth as a whole. Being a citizen of the global community means more than just living on the planet, but to also help others when they are in need. By being a citizen of the earth, I dedicate myself to bettering not just humanity, but everything on this globe.
Australia has been labelled as the country of mateship, fair-go and tolerance, but the mistreatment of Asylum seekers in Australia denies these values. In our anthem we sing “For those who’ve come across the seas, we’ve boundless plains to share”. It ironic isn’t it? As when Asylum seekers arrive in Australia we do not offer a hand of mateship instead we use punitive matters such as sending them to mandatory detention, which shows how xenophobia is manifested in Australia (Ariyawansa,
The treatment of refugees and asylum seekers in Australia is unacceptable and with mandatory detention it makes matters even worse. The treatment that families and children go through is a monstrosity. All of the reasons that have been listed is why ‘If I could change one thing about Australia’ it would be changing the way refugees are treated here and making them feel safe in Australia by connecting them to the
This quotation is significant because it represents Socrates’ ideas about death. He believes that fearing the unknown is unreasonable because we don’t know what happens after death. Socrates also believes that “being dead is one of two things” (Socrates 58); either you feel nothing at all or it is a “journey from here to another place” (Socrates 59). Fearing something we don’t now is not going to get us anywhere except limit our potential. Although, death is a frightful concept, it might also be a good thing.
Australia is known as a country of freedom and fairness, however many groups such as youth, the unemployed, aged, and ethnic groups tend to become marginalised because of their minority status. Certain groups are marginalised because they are perceived as being different or undeserving of equality in society. This is called stereotyping and it leads to prejudice and discrimination. This essay explores three marginalised groups and discusses some of the reasons why they are marginalised and the effects on those within these groups. Exclusion from areas such as employment and other services and opportunities that other Australian 's take for granted, is a result of the marginality of indigenous Australian 's, woman, and those with
Intro Name:Jayson lostaunau in the article pro/con: Are our school lunches healthy enough by McClatchy-tribute news service the genera is real problems. The article is about the first lady's choice in making school lunches healthier.the thesis is we could have healthy lunch but we could have something else that is not so healthy but can keep us eating lunch,because if the lunch is nasty then we won't eat and get sick from not eating.

Families entering the refuge countries suffer from displacement and separation, grief and mental agony, gross violence in their countries of origin and are needy, helpless and vulnerable who need to be taken care of. Australia for example has ratified numerous
Not only that, but they do it by the millions, moving in independent crowds step by step on the grounds that there is security (Acuesta, 2017). The explanations for their movement include issues such as social, racial, religious and political persecution, war, climate change, hunger and gender orientation. These vulnerable refugees have no other choice than to seek protection and we are denying their human rights and stripping away their human dignity. A United Nations Refugee Agency survey conducted in Australia in 2011 showed that 35% of people favoured turning back boats or detention of arrivals and deportation, while only 22% favoured eligibility for permanent settlement. Clearly there is much controversy surrounding this issue as it can create many effects within a nations, both positive and negative.
