It has been about 8 months since I sent this message and thanks to @curiousjay, friends and other key folks, we launched Multicultural Collective. To date, we have had lots of great events, got two grants and are growing.

"As this Administration continually chips away at our democracy, we remain grateful for an independent judiciary that will dispassionately apply binding precedent to the facts."

Congratulations to Mr. Abrego. May the American people never forget how the United States came to be.

When you write in one #language vs another, does “a language hierarchy mirror a cultural hierarchy"?

This gives me hope that Australians, by and large, aren’t what #PHON is all about:

“Australian voters are sorting not on left-right economic axes but on openness-versus-authoritarian trait dimensions, and the sort is accelerating. Right-wing cultural populism, the One Nation product, mobilises the authoritarian end of that distribution. It is effective in cohorts where authoritarian traits are over-represented: older voters, voters with low formal education, voters in racially and culturally homogeneous areas, voters whose lived experience does not include being on the receiving end of the politics of race.”

In the context of a growing #MultiCultural Australia and the aging #WASPish voters, there is hope for a future without a threat from PHON and its current voters.
