Racist Australia

One in 10 Tasmanians racist: So, 46.6% of people in NSW believe that some cultural or ethnic groups don’t fit into Australian society. This sort of figure is bound to shake off any naïve belief that Australians have fixed the scourge of racism. I guess, though, it wasn’t altogether surprising given the brouhaha at Camden and Bass Hill. What would you do to create a more tolerant society?

    The question is “what ethnic group does not fit into Australian culture”. I would say “none”, but if pressed, I would say “racists don’t fit into Australian culture.” And which ethnic group contributes the most prominent racists in Australia?
