Should we keep Australia day on January 26 ?
Today we delve into the controversy surrounding Australia Day, commonly referred to as 'Invasion Day.' The discourse revolves around whether Australians should feel shame about their British heritage or if there's a valid space for celebration. Historical context is provided, shedding light on the foundation of Australia by the First Fleet in 1788 and acknowledging the historical issues of land theft and exploitation of indigenous people by the British Empire.
The discussion extends to the positive impact of British colonization, asserting that Australia has evolved into a leading nation with values such as the rule of law, liberty, and democracy.
The video also addresses the appreciation for indigenous people and their culture, acknowledging existing gaps between remote indigenous communities and the rest of Australia. It explores proposals aiming to empower indigenous communities, promote a strong work ethic, and recognize the limits of state power in addressing social issues. Former CIS colleague and Senator Jacinta Nampijinpa Price is a leader - rejecting victimhood, separatism, and symbolism in favor of empowerment and a strong work ethic.
