This film focuses on difficulties some Africans face in moving to Australia and what we can do to fix this.
Exploring the barriers placed in front of African youth such as mis-representation in the media and perceptions in the community and how this impacts peoples lives.
Showing programs that many organisations create and run to help empower youth.

As a young African Australian I never get picked on or bullied at school. And by the way it’s a good thing that no one sits next to you on the train , lol.
What did you expect stop looking for there approval ffs come hang out with us natives
@@ComaToast1 I'm thinking about moving to Australia , I'll see you around.
That happens to me alot, if I even come sit closer to a white person, they would stay for maybe seconds or never and move to another spot.
Hey you're awesome mate
Shut your mouth, your kind of Africa who don't mate the facts
IM AFRICAN AND MINE FAMILY AND I LOVE AUSTRALIA !! I WAS LIVING IN USA AND LEARN THE STRENGTH TO LIVE ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD BESIDE OTHER RACES !! NEGATIVITY IS ALL AROUND THE WORLD BUT IF YOUR ADJUST TO THEIR CULTURE YOU GONNA START LOVING AUSTRALIA 🇦🇺 !! VERY GOOD COUNTRY TO LIVE !! DONT BE DISCOURAGED !! THERE ARE MANY ASSOCIATIONS THAT CAN HELP YOU !! ANY DOUBTS YOU CAN CONTACT ME IN MY CHANNEL !!
@@julitasorensen6813 why dont you shut up!
He can choose where to live while you dont have this option. The world is globalized.
Get out of my country nobody wants you people here
As an African American, would you rather live in the US or Australia, does the US have more racism
In Australia it's not easy to get a job if you are a person of colour, other than that I don't have any problem with Australian people( the white people).
HAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHA LOL GOOD JOKE
It's always been that way! If you were born in a non-English speaking country it's as difficult to get a job. Irrespective of skin pigmentation issues.
@@KeyboredCoward why should it be hard when we're all the same. Migrants from Africa speak way better English than some of the white ppl born in Australia. You also have to consider that when you're coming to Australia from Africa, there's a high chance that you're a professional in your field and have passed English Exams.
And why should anyone give you a job? Local people should always be preferenced over the Johnny-Come-Latelies.
What a beautiful poem from that young man. Keep it up and may God bless you!
"Peace not violence, love not hate, us and not me." That's really lovely.
Y'all really need to come together and work together. Communication is the only key which can unlock the doors of questions such as "what can we do to make Australia a better place?" and not just for Australians but for all people who live in Australia.
All these comments of hate I read here are just wasting of time, "also living in fear of each other, or waiting for these sudden people to be deported," will never happen. Start loving each other today and you'll all live in peace and harmony. Flush all that hate down the 🚽 let it go for good, hate is there to rob the happiness in you. Remember hate is your number one enemy. "Not the Africans." 😃😂
Hey fackwit no one's cares if you're black so stop making up bullshet to beg with
How are Africans going to be treated better when the aboriginals who have been here for thousands of years aren't?
Are you talking about dead people? Australians today bend over backwards for the natives, and you're implying that Africans should be treated better than aboriginals, I think your wording was unintentional but that's what you wrote. Also no one needs to treat you like anything, I think you are talking about benefits don't lie
About 20 years ago I married a black man from America We were on the train in Mellbourne when it was time to get off the train This older white guy spat at us and told him to go back to his own country There u go !!!
candy cane TAKE HIS ADVICE AND FUCK OFF!
It‘s so Sad !!!
But fool assholes are everywhere
some people do not want to see a white woman with a black man
i once had a black girlfriend & we once got odd looks when we were together .one white man even told me to stick with my own race so it works both ways .in fact i have had sex with four black women & they never compared my dick with the black men they have had
candy cane ,when old white man do anything like that,next time beat the fuck out of him and piss in his face , I do it all the time up here in northern Australia.
Blacks in Australia will feel better as their population increase and they become more successful and open their own businesses and employ their ppl
They will feel better if they go back to Africa and start their own businesses there.
@@chriswatson1698 go back to Europe and whine there.
Open businesses in Africa
@@chriswatson1698 you better be Aboriginal 👀
@@Bryn_Raschaul Why should I be Aboriginal? The blacks of Africa kicked the whites out, so why shouldn't we kick the Africans out? Africans come to Australia to benefit from generations of white taxpaying. They fly into a country that has power stations, clean water piped to every home, telecommunications, power distribution systems, education, healthcare and welfare systems, all built by white people. The first British settlers did not. White people are entitled to have the fruits of their labour go to their own descendants, not to latecomers who have stuffed up their own countries with excessive breeding.
I have a friend from the Caribbean who lived in Australia for 3 years I believe he lived in Brisbane. He was an engineer and he told me he never once experienced racism or felt discriminated in Oz. If we as blacks can go to other countries and behave and contribute something positive to those countries then we'll be fine.
I've never ever seen whites or asians migrate to other countries and do some of the schitt that blacks engage in.
jay C true
jay C 👏👏👏👏👏👍
jay C Blacks like you are in a minority and your voice gets subdued. You should teach your compatriots that it takes hard work and patience. Keep it up mate.
Jay C, I am from Trinidad
Jay C your friend may have never experienced racism because of a couple of reasons . Australians even tho they might not admit are fascinated by , African American and Caribbeans and treat them differently from Africans.Secondly, he gets more respect probably because of his profession and he may have come here as a professional already.Did he move from a different country like UK or US and had a british or American accent? Did he move straight from the Carribean with a Carribean accent and Carribean qualification.these little details surprisingly affect the chances that one would experience racism or not
Learning about more in the world. I am. Thanks.
I'm Hatian and I love the Australian people. The fact that the police would be willing to help you, says a lot. Compared to the United States of America where their job is to kill and arrest you. I live in America and when I compare America to Australia. It's night and day. Yeah. Every countryi has its problems.
But I've noticed, when I started interacting with people from other countries like Australia, Germany and Canada.
I found a new joy in living. I plan to study abroad in Europe or Australia next year and study Music. I want to be a composer.
I'm a Hatian kid living in the USA and I hate it here. The reason why I missed Australia is the people. I really missed the people.
Youre an idiot.
Keep the positive spirit youngster as you go about the world. It sounds to me like you have the right attitude. Ignore the ignorant. As a matter of fact block them. Notice that they are not “real people” . They have made no contributions on TH-cam. Nothing. Only negative comments that bring people down. Real people have real experiences of life that they learn from and want to share with other people. Why? So that other people will find positive inspiration and go and have a better existence. People who think the opposite aren’t worth your attention. Keep believing in yourself and do great things. Let me know how it goes. www.lafayetteharrisjr@gmail.com
David James you are a fool
@@davidjames2024 fuck you, just admit you’re racist and move on.
@@davidjames2024 look who has liked their own comment
Racist asshole
As a white Australian I can say that white Australians are pretty cold in general when you don't have a relationship with them. It is not just the skin color. I have lived next to so many other whites and they literally don't want to talk to you. I remember one guy, I would say hi and smile at him just to get under his skin. I have lived for many years in asia and they are far friendlier and everyone smiles more easily. It is not that all Aussies are better or worse than other people but they are not that open. I can imagine that an outsider (such as the guy at the beginning) would feel that there is something wrong with him. Being on a bus in Asia, you can talk to someone and they will talk back. Being on a bus in Australia and talk to someone and they will get suspicious of you. Not always but generally. That said, it doesn't help their (African) cause by rampaging through streets and smashing up things and people.
That was not my experience of Australia at all.
Well I will not call you names such as you have called me names. You obviously didn't read my post. I have been travelling to different parts of the world since I was 21. I'm now 50+. I am now living in Asia, have been for nearly 5 years. I have two daughters who are half Arab and a son who is half Filipino. Read carefully and answer carefully next time instead of blowing steam out you ears and hitting the keypad. I was making an observation only. My observations are based on living on the East coast of Australia. The fact is Aussies are not that open when you first meet them. But when they get to know you there are some awesome people there.
You don't even read my posts. I'm a white Christian male who doesn't like the Muslim religion. I never said that Aussies are racists anywhere in my post. I just said that they are harder to get to know than Asians. Not sure what is racist about that. I don't think Australia in general is racist as they let in so many people from so many other countries around the world. Unlike as you said many Middle Eastern countries who let in no one. I think you need comprehension skills. And maybe some soap for your mouth. Chill out.
haha.
zotta1 point of correction your are not from Australia pls correct yourself.. Australian is a black nation and it belong to aboriginal why can't you white go back to Europe.
I wonder if there is a difference between Chinese and Lebanese or Sudanese in the way they approach work, study etc. If there is someone in my family causing problems, we deal with it in the family, we don't expect others to do it for us.
To hear this young man describe how difficult it is to be black in Australia truly angers me to a very intense level. No person should try to do harm to any other person. And the idea that this young man has experienced so much trauma while living in Australia definitely reflects extremely poorly on the whites in Australia. And I must say Australia's reputation does precede this young man's time in Australia. I know very successful wealthy Black Americans that conducted business in Australia and some of those people later said, never again! The financial return wasn't worth dealing with a society that is stuck in the 1950s. This conclusion was the result of working within a antiquated society.
Hear hear!
Black men should stop living in Australia if it is difficult. It wasn't their parents or grandparents that paid for all the stuff that they are enjoying.
There are many variables at play. Just because someone doesn't sit next to you, doesn't mean they are doing this because of your race.
I'm African-Australian, and I haven't had a single problem with race or discrimination at any point whatsoever...
Mwaura Weru I doubt that you’ve ever lived in Australia
@@truthteller9005 I live in Perth right now...
@@truthteller9005 lol shut up. Every experience is different
Get the hell out of our country we don’t want Africans here
Different people have different experiences. It won't be the same for everyone
how do i contact the guy at the beginning talkin about his experiences on trains
Thanx a lot guy. He is an old room mate of mine. Glad to have found him again
Did you shoot the doco in 2014 or recently. Interesting subject matter, one I am familiar with all to well unfortunatley.
No problems, thanks. shot it in 2014.
He's not African Australian, he's not even first generation, you can tell because if he was born in Australia, he'd have some sort of Australian accent
Facts
Don't let nobody control you or ya talents. Period.
ok just a comment, no one generally sits next to anyone on the trains or bus's etc
I wasn't born here but I feel like I feel more at home than everybody. I understand this is the largest multicultural home ever and that most people are still in the process of co-existing as family forever there for don't give up or encourage any member of the family to.
Excuse the name I'm just a rapper
no UK and US are the mist multicultural and France
to the first guy, bro life is just one to be lived. lift your spirit high, have enough respect for yourself, keep a high self esteem. if possible, move where you’re accepted. simply be yourself and chill out bro
You have no idea how painful it is.
are there as many blacks in aus as u get in london?
Still have it better then Australian Aboriginals, Torres Strait Islanders, And Polynesians
@Eastern Star Because there is less of them there
It's not just African people who have trouble getting jobs after University. A lot of people who've gone to University have trouble getting jobs. Quite a few well educated people are doing jobs they never expected to.
You have no idea. Check the stats and not just say stuff for the sake of saying stuff.
Why should Australians employ Africans? Africans should return to Africa and give Africans the benefit of their education.
There are certain african nationalities that even we Africans in Africa preferably stay away from..simply because of their beliefs and nature. In the southern part of Africa people generally calm and peaceful and some other nationalities are more aggressive than we are and it causes a rift/divide. So I understand it's not about racism But certain people that have bad traits compared to others. I lived in a former Soviet country for 6yrs so I know what racism is. Eventually they warmed up to us or we learned to ignore them. And I don't think this is racism. If any person is willing to persevere, work hard and put their best foot forward, doors open.
African/West Indian immigration is the worst thing to ever happen in England...Australia will regret letting them in.
Man i dont care where you are from what skin colour you are i will treat you the way you treat me and have a few cold beers with you .
Its about time everyperson is held accountable and responsible for thier own actions and behavior to wards other people.
And not made to be held responsible or accountable for because someone who is of the same race or culture or religious beliefs or skin colour or gender as them have done .
As an African African black man I can bravely say thank you, but most of us don't truly care that there are people like you out there. Because you come off as being neutral. Even though you sound like a great person you are the minority. The problem with this statement is that you might want to receive differential treatment or recognition for being a non-racist non- bias, but so many of non racists are just as bad for allowing their constituents of their same color to maintain their racist behavior. You don't want to be lumped in with the bad apples or you don't want to be held accountable for what they do. That's a privilege we can't afford because we are constantly viewed in stereotypical fashion no matter what we do to overcome those notions. Non ethnic people, within their circles, know what is said about us by Anglo-Saxons and the like, the Good, Bad, and Ugly yet you probably don't confront the offenders. You'd probably be called a nigg3r lover. The problem is you're good but maybe your uncle isn't, maybe you'r mom isn't, maybe you'r 3rd cousin isn't, and so on. (And im generalizing, not you, but anyone this applies to) So basically, you may be for equity and equality but who around you are you trying to influence to be the same. You just want to have a cold beer and forget about the problems, which aren't yours to deal with so you don't. And by no means am I saying your obligated to fight with us or for us because you probably don't and probably won't. But thanks for not being racists.
@@kingrhun i under stand what you are saying .
I have been in a situation with a friend and a couple of low life scumbag bigots started thier racists shit talking and we sorted them out.
And i will stand up with anyone against any person who believes that thier race or skin colour is more superior than other races or skin colours .
Known matter if they are white or black or any other colour or race .
@@stephenjohnson6632 It's great that you are standing with us it's appreciated. I might not have been clear enough about that. Thanks for sticking up for us. I guess my individual feeling is that we're all tired of this fight. It feels like even when we have allies it's never enough. I just wanted to point out how being neutral won't help, I'm sorry I assumed you were.
@@kingrhun thats ok what my post was about is any person who comes in my home is treated the same as people would treat me in my home and i will not tolerate anyone even family members who disrepect any one who has been invited to my home known matter who they are .
@@kingrhun so fkn true
It's amazing life will continue to go on as long as there's a race so probably always be racism. The only thing anyone can do is just keep going on and do the best they can.
I finished Uni too, it took forever to get a job, but i got a job at a call centre, started at the bottom, like everybody else. I didn't blame racism, i didn't blame anybody else. YOu just have to work had. And I NEVER went on welfare. I'm Indian.
Then of course you belong in a call centre.
But have you changed your name to an Anglo-sounding one and still got turned down? That is the claim that is being made, but you haven't provided anything to counter that. It is not that they are complaining of lack of employment, but that having an Anglo-sounding, name or lack thereof, makes a different. You missed that very nuanced point.
There is work for anyone who is willing to work. It my not start out with the work you want but it can and does lead to work you prefer if you show responsibility and a good work ethic. Anyone who says that is not true is a bold faced liar and should be immediately removed from any position they hold that promotes lies against the truth stated above. Full stop.
I feel sorry for them to a point I know what it's like to be labeled by a lying media
God bless Germany and England France Canada Australia I don't need to talk about my, you are always the leader and the top, greetings from Hollywood
There is no successful African businesses in Melbourne.
This is one side of a story that is very complex which the Australian government should have planned far more rigorously than it did. Yes, African's will be identified as black even as I will be identified and stereotyped as an older white man. We are all susceptible to being stereotyped and while the powers that be in Government and media continue to play identity politics these issues will continue. The media and government are so busy classifying the population into factions instead of dealing with individuals. I have connections to Africans in Perth. One is my foster son. He was dux of his school. Another calls me 'Uncle', another has murdered his girl friend and is in prison, another smashed up his girlfriends father's car and is also in prison, another is at Uni studying architecture, another is a teacher aide at a school that provides education to those that Government schools can not deal with, another came to Australia illiterate as a teenager and has learn't to read and write English, he is getting married to another African who is working as a nurse Another won millions in a lottery, another works in the area of housing the mentally ill, another is a bricklaying apprentice, another is a youth worker, another is studying psychology. In the midst of all that you have Islamic terrorism centre stage in the world and Islamic black North African men predominantly, flooding Europe, you have ISIS soldiers trying to make their way back to Australia and the USA. Did the government really believe that the lack of foresight was going to result in a neat and tidy multicultural experience that would muster support and the integration of black Africans into Australian culture?
We might have our own problems in the US but when I travel in some other countries I feel like I come from the futur...
I think the human race have many cultures and many creations of way of living so when someone come in and risks that way, it creates confrontation. So Destruying the things that creates that division and fear like religion, politic and lack of a decent economic life is the best way to live in a tolerant world.
im from Sydney bankstown im greek aussie inmy late 20's and male Africans like me I never met one that didnt from the ages 15 to 45 i see them drinking in the parks untill midnight in groups of 10 plus hangen in alley ways under bridges...but i do look like a loco vatos Chicano gang member shaved head goatee with my los angles styles of tattoos & gangsta gear..they always smile at me & wanna shake my hand & call me nigga..and i respond sup my nigga....and we act like american gangstas..they are very touchy feely people...on the verge on being gay they way they touch each other tho lol, i cant speak on melbourne niggaz i neva been...
I am a white emigrant and I found very hard to feel welcome in Australia and to make friends , I also felt very lonely , so my thoughts are moving to another country and leaving all that you know behind you is very hard , personally I struggled so much to get a job and make friends , my opinion is it not your skin colour but how you react to people , my problem was I kept looking for negative people and not seeing the positive people , once I stopped searching for the negative life became much easier and started seeing the glass half full , I got a job which helped me to make friends but I had to be a bit pushy to meet people, black, white or Asian it is a different culture , I have know doubt your journey will be hard one but it's a one worth taking , smile and talk to people be the first to say hello , I hope you grow to love Australia as much as I do
With all due respect Africa is a continent with so many countries.. the issue is not with Africans but south Sudanese people In Australia. the Australian government needs to focus on the concerns of the Sudanese community in order to get the problem solve . I am not trying to single out the Sudanese people because we are all African and we are one but at the same time the issues is prevalent within the south Sudanese community and the media is generalizing will not get the issue solved.
"Focus in the concerns of the Sudanese community..." What about the needs of the population already here? We shouldn't let anymore in at all.
@@richardwitherow5289 its worked out well in Perth. But it was shocking to see people with macheties go into peoples houses and terrorise them. It was sudanese. Not african. Its like beimg blamed for yank crap.
They are to lazy to fix Africa rather run to a developed white run country and cry racism
So what are you begging for? Do you want money? A job or career handed to you? Or do you want more police protection in your neighbourhood? What exactly do you want to beg for?

You need to stay in Africa and work to improve it.
i have seen many black people working in mcdonalds
Thats bullshit.

That is so revealing. It only makes sense that when people are denied a chance to earn a living, they'll certainly turn to crime.

I'm from Newcastle, Australia I can say that the ignorance shown towards non whites and immigrants may be a bigger social problem than our problem with meth
My African brothers and sisters...did you see what these people did to the aborigines people the original people of Australia...because of their skin and their feelings of superiority...
Why do you think they would welcome you with open arms...
Now that you have pointed to the misdeeds of white people, acknowledge the brutality of Aborigines to other Aborigines, and the violence of black Africans on other black Africans.
Not racist at all l was in Australia for a year and not once l got any racist comment. I am black British and l loved every moment.as for not getting jobs it's everywere even in UK a lot of peoples can't get jobs let's stop with the racist cards
I am a black British too but my experience in Australia was horrible comparing to others countries I lived before. You can only speak for yourself and share your own experiences. Glad you didn’t experience racism but You can’t speak for everyone. Just because you didn’t experience racism in Australia doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.
There are several people in this video that hold a very different experience. But at your will, you can continue to see things from only your perspective. Develop some empathy, otherwise you're implying that everyone in the video is a liar. You should also consider that you just may not be a perceptive person. Consider that you could lack awareness or common sense. Or consider that you don't pick up on micro behaviors and social cues.
@@yahnessayisrael6777 I bet you live in a comfortable home saying this
Just because you haven’t experienced racism in Australia doesn’t mean you can dismiss other people’s experiences. It’s not ‘using a race card’ when people share factual stories about being stereotyped or discriminated against. There’s plenty of black and brown people who’ve travelled to Australia and experienced racism. It’s not relevant to just say you’re Black British and you were okay. I’m Black British and travelled to different countries, just because I didn’t experience racism doesn’t mean it didn’t exist in those countries. You sound naive in your comments.
There is a difference between staying there for years and being there for a year. It is hardcore hard if you stayed here for long. They will show you that you are NOT wanted.
The man in the beginning is so handsome. He makes me want to go to Australia and catch the bus😍
What country are u from
Hahaha
White Aussies look quite aged, and African Aussies much darker, could it be sun perhaps?
"Being black is very very hard."
But not impossible
Not in Africa

People learn from life experiences and their environment. It’s written in the DNA of all living things and a tool of survival. So you can’t blame people of being weary of a particular group that’s always victimizing people. Instead of being upset at people for being cautious of being victimized start trying to change the cause.
Africans are fairly new here. Its all new for us to create. We have never victimised them. Thats America
@@Josh-rn1em Its Australia too

@jon holloway when a black man punches and knocks you out cold and he pisses in your filthy pink face, you stand up with pride and kiss his big black left nutsack with white pride
Jest Passinthru of course the do, White people stole that land from black peoples.
Now you want to be racist come on now man lives in London Uk so in a white country like England you want to discriminate against blacks and in a Black Country like Australia you still want to discriminate against blacks. Joke ting SNM
NO....they don't.
@@nuffuptv3075 Aborigines didn't build the land. Nature did. So who are you to say who owns it. Africans aren't Aborigines, so there is no reason to allow Africans to live in Australia. If they are productive, their African countries need them.
The Aborigines that were living in Australia when the whites arrived were the ultimate winners of millennia of low level warfare. They or their ancestors gained their occupancy of the land, by killing Aborigines.
So if whites 'stole' the land that nature built, it was from thieves and murderers.
If I didn't like the people where I was living, I would move somewhere else. Problem solved. Why does everyone complain so much?
alot of people are poor and can not just move..people like me...who lives in bankstwon full of muslims...
Yet as you can clearly see here, people with dark skin can't up and move anywhere in the world because they are all hated on any continent. Even Africa itself!
Would you tell that to a white Afrikaner in South Africa who complains about how they're being mistreated? Hell no. Why the double standards?
@@Tiggaknock you’re not hated on every continent. Stop being a loser and work.
@@Tiggaknock that’s not true. Black people are viewed as a threat because despite everything that has been done to us, we are still strong. The myth is that we’re hated but we’re envied. It all depends on how you look at things and how you view yourself. It starts by not seeking approval from anyone and being proud of who you are.
Why not come clean and say that some people and cultures don't fit with our society?
South Sudanese seem to be the ones that have problems
I would have a guess that white Australians suffer similar problems when trying to find a meaningful job.
A good example of reverse discrimination.
A good place to start would be to control the element in the "Community " for these African people that come here otherwise you will always be labelled.
As far as the media goes if they reported all the instances black people would be too scared to go on the streets I think.
Why should they be treated any differently?
Do the crime, pay the time.
Don't forget you people, you came here, you strove to come here and benefit from our society the same as whites.
In some cases you are treated better than the white poor people here.
Maybe you should have gone to England because you certainly have the runs on the board as far as whinging goes, especially if things were as bad as what they say in regards to where they came from.
My take on this is that they think Australians are stupid and they will milk us for all its worth, get homes, cars, make babies , erode our culture and get paid for it all the while not working.
I would guess that if we reduced the levels of support that the do Gooders agitated for that they would integrate and contribute to survive howw ever, as it stands now they don't have to.
Ah Australia, the land of milk and honey where you can live well and do nothing.
If they had a go instead of whinging it could be different
Damn!😬...and I'm actually moving to Australia soon from Zimbabwe. I don't know why white ppl hate Africans or anyone different from them. Gotta reconsider moving to Auz after watching this.
Its not easy. Socially, it is not easy at all. You will feel like you are really not part of the community. Find other Zims to connect with. In Zimbabwe, people are very social and talk freely to each other and strangers but NOT in Australia.
The most inhumane people in the world are those men who start children when they are unable to provide an acceptable lifestyle and safety to the children they already have. Africans have failed to restrain their reproduction as the members of western countries have done. I resent that Africans are allowed to use Australia as an overflow tank for their selfish greedy over reproduction.
Things like this make me afraid of leaving South Africa , would I rather stay in this sinking ship and be treated like an actual human being or go to a thriving country where I’m treated like less than
You will definately be treated better in a thriving country friend. Countries like Australia new Zealand and Canada are getting alot better
Yes I feel for you'll. Don't forget years earlier other migrant groups had it difficult.

realstreetninja why would mufusa fight his child?
before the government decide to bring people from a complete different culture than Australians ,white/Christians .European mostly..they should ask the citizen if is OK to do so..After imposing blacks,and Muslims into Australia..disrespect the majority ...Why people can not have a choice whom to mix with? so we MUST like them just because they impose them on us? same with food or anything ...We have choice or not??
dude man You’re a bloody idiot. Australia only exists cause whites came here and pioneered a country we called Australia.
You’re a total nutter. 🤦♀️🤦🏼♂️
did white Europeans give the same courtesy to the aboriginals?
For those of you that are saying “deport them “ you should know that some of them where born in raised in Australia just like you was, so it just as much their country as it is yours .
Man these people should be great full for being here if it where up to me there would be 0 of them here
I always went out of my way to meet and greet these new people to our country...I give up now though.....
Why
there r black ppl in Australia OK all around the interior and in the north...
Aborigines are Australian, Africans are not.
If a lot of them didnt threaten us we would sit next to you but how do we know which one you are
First of all referring to people as ‘them’ is disrespectful and secondly, does that mean we should treat you based on our bad experiences with white women just in case you could be one of them? What a crazy mentality to have. How about treating people as individuals. Besides, nobody is begging you to sit next to them.
What is sad is the long term harm that affects the victims of racial bias. Depression, stress, low esteem,anger...leads to pbysical illness and negative social repercussions. This suffering is unecessary and can be eradicated with empowerement,education and unity.
If you come down west Sydney best place there’s a lot Indian aboriginal Africans Polynesians and white Australians and more but it’s sad seeing racism in Australia.
aaron hopppitt i agree and im a black mail myself in the uk looking to come to Australia
Don't let anymore in, and send back the ones that are there already.
You sound so bitter
Dude shut up, stop living in your authoritarian fantasy world. Our population is increasing so deal with it or leave.
I agree Africa doesn't have racism
Work hard to build your own business then go back, booming economy.
Shut up
This comment if for those who have commented and those who will in the future.
Regardless of bad experiences or long standing cultural belief, the second anyone says 'filthy ' is the second they lose all credibly to be able to comment on racism, because they are stating quite clearly that they possess prejudice views against someone or a people based of their ethnicity.
Cultural assimilation has never been an easy process, not in any country across the history of mankind. Australian's born and who have gained citizenship across the generations of migrants do understand this and that is because time and again we have been through this with new ethnic groups who have come here seeking a home. Many of those generations of migrants have also come from war torn, oppressed and impoverished countries. So there is no excuse for the hate against the country and the people who have taken you in when you needed a place to go, where your children can live a good life and potentially affect the world.
Culture is influenced by heritage. defined by language and is constantly adapting to new circumstances. Australian's as a people believe in a fair go, we a love the underdog and we absolutely hate arrogance and mistrust people in power. We come to hate people who demand from us and claim our respect without having earned it. We are proud and we are fallible.
If you want the Australian's who have become mistrustful and angry to change their views, then you will have to work for it. Because another thing Australian's are is stubborn. If you truly care and want that stubbornness to fade and go away realize that Australia is not the place you come from, our culture is different from the one you come from. Ultimately it is your choice how you influence the Australian culture.
Just bare this in mind, whatever your choice may be: for every action there is a reaction, there are consequences to your actions.
This goes for everyone from all ethnicity and cultural backgrounds.
No one is exempt.
I like your ideas of African Communities in Australia, that presents as one African people, but in America African people are not together everyone is more about his/her forma country or tribe rather than Unite, congratulation African Austrians for having a powerful tools to protect your selves.
This is so weird why do you expect to be treated better than the aboriginals?
Wanting to be treated like a human being means to want to be treated better than anyone else ? Lol
Hate this damn music. Really 😡
Unlike these recently arrived Africans, the first British settlers didn't sail into an established society with infrastructure and institutions in place to get a share of the wealth built by the people of another country. Those early waves of migrants, including the very few Asians and Africans, who did the hard yards of building Australia, are entitled to have the fruits of their labour go to their own descendants, not these Johnny-Come-Latelies.
How can Asians and africans build Australia if they were prohibited to go to Australia until 1975?
You are a stupid nazist!
@@taradaombc Africans and Asians had plenty of opportunity to discover and settle Australia before the British did. They just weren't interested. They could have had an industrial revolution before the British did.
@@taradaombc There were a few Africans on the First Fleet. They were convicts that the ships picked up along the way. They may have left descendants. In which case, those descendants are entitled to keep their inheritance.
its the same everywhere huh
True
There is racism in Australia. It's real
Yes
I wouldn't like to be white in Africa. I would always be European in the eyes of Africans
Well whites in Africa are racist and segregate themselves so the average African doesn't see white people as African.
Because you are white...
You will never be an African it not just about nationality it's race and DNA...
But Africans we are very welcoming to white people...
Too welcoming...
That's why colonization, slavery and oppression happened....
African people are very welcoming
@@nubianthought69 Same as Africans in Europe will never be European
@@nubianthought69 Slavery existed in Africa long before white men got there. Still goes on till this day. Every civilisation had slavery.
@@proudinfidel2194 The slavery that existed before contact with the white man is not the slavery l am referring to...
Please don't go there...
Waring tribes took servants ...
That's not the slavery, colonization and oppression l am speaking of...
How to look for pity and to become a victim is what this should’ve been titled.
Of course Australia's racists isn't Africa Asia arabs
I like bashing racist whites in Australia.
I suppose you consider any white person who isn't a leftist liberal fair game?
I'm white and I wish I was black :'(
stop that.
I object to Australia being used as an overflow tank for Africans who have refused to limit their reproduction the way we have.
They come here to use roads, hospitals, water supplies, power supplies that neither they, nor their parents or grandparents, have paid for. They are like burglars. They come to take a share of wealth worked for, and built, by another country.
We need a government that will protect us from the selfish, greedy over reproduction of people on other continents.
Your relatives must go back to the UK!
White Europeans are not natives from Australia.
You are a nazist idiot!
Unlike modern migrants, the first British settlers didn't sail into an established society with roads, buildings, dams, ports etc. and education, health and welfare systems in place to get a share of wealth created by the people of another country. They started from scratch.
Modern migrants are like burglars. Burglars want better lives. That is why they move into other peoples' homes to get a share of the wealth that the original residents have worked to pay for.
I'm Australian, please for you European That are living in Australia don't bring racist in my country,apart from the blessing Europeans country Germany England France
there a lot of countries that don't want white people to bring their racism in their countries even Europe
Brother don't mind them those who are doing that they are stupid in sense
africa media will get funded by abc i bet lol
No excuses...Society doesn't owe them anything... they must pull up their socks.. and get on with it...
Couldn't have said it better myself
6:33 irrelevant - it's the difference between buying Air Jordans or stealing them, they can afford Dunlop Volley's on their dole payment.
6:35 if the crime relates to stolen property, drug possession or weapons charges which would be revealed by a body search then that is interesting enough, there are things of greater importance such as; violent crime, sexual assault, home invasion, carjacking and so forth which should be unpacked and discussed frankly
If it's true that they demonstrate 40-70 times more criminality within their community, they are beyond salvation and they need to leave asap.
6:15 Soy.
This is bullshit! As an Asian immigrant i encountered racism too. But i got past that, educated myself and now have a stable job in IT industry.
It's as if they're talking about something pandemic.
Why should we accept them as Australians? I don't want them here. I had fewer children than I wanted to have because I couldn't afford a third child. Naturally, I deeply resent my taxes being used to support big families of foreigners who have stuffed up their own countries by having too many children.
you are a nazist!
You white?
@@alibolink0719 I am of the same ethnic group as the people who were kicked out of Africa by black Africans. I am also of the same ethnic group as the people who started the industrial revolution and who paid for Australia's power stations, water and power distribution systems, telecommunications, roads, ports, bridges etc. I am also of the same ethnic group as the people who established Australia's education, health care and welfare systems. Africans don't come to Australia for the benefit of anything that Aborigines worked hard to build.
I'm african and i've lived in Australia since i was two and I've never experienced racism and I think Australians are really nice and welcoming people (well the ones I've met) I honestly don't blame white people if they're are afraid to sit next to a black person i too am afraid sometimes.
Same here like wtf there not racist (people that I’ve met)
Look in the comment section of this video
ItzMe Onlyme the fact that u may not have experienced racism doesn't mean it doesn't exist people are facing real struggles that might make you shed tears when you hear them, you may not be aware that Africans with an African accent are sometimes treated differently than those that were born in Australia or have Australian accent,people are cautious to try and bully or be racist towards African with Australian accent this may be the reason why you haven't experienced it.I am curious to know why you are Afraid of black people sometimes.
Daddy Bee clearly this person isnt african or perhaps a brainwashed african. Its hard to deny the racism that exists here.
You just demonstrated that you’re racist with your last sentence. Why would you be afraid of someone based on their skin colour? That doesn’t tell you that the person is dangerous. Just because you’re African it doesn’t give you the right to make statements like that. Also, you can only speak about your experience and not anyone else’s. Just because you haven’t experienced racism doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen to other people. It makes no sense when people try to talk about a country as a whole based on their individual experience.
Hi
U can’t handle being in west
there is good & bad in all races
Come to Australia where I live you will be welcomed with loving arms Bless you
Let's met then *kisses*
As a white Australian the racism that i witness in this country blows my mind even just reading the comments here makes me cringe its just embarrassing. I would leave this country in a heartbeat if i could. Was built on bullshit and remains as racist and ignorant as it started out.
You here all these complaints from many people, that they are qualified for a job and they send many applications for employment and they don't get a call back, so please stop using racism.
There are many black people who are successful like there are many white that are poor. This racism claim is just rubbish. Africans should be willing to integrate into Australians society, not just remain with their own, and that goes for every migrant coming to Australia.
Black is so nice on a pair of shoes or a nice black Mercedes car & brown is ok too but black people from other countries, forget it. I am white but when I am in the sun I turn brown LOL chuckle chuckle
what? you alright there?
You good?
Australians are not migrating to Africa, so don't migrate to our country.
That’s really not cool mate
your criminal ancestors literaly migrated to Australia lmao 🤣
Every person on earth is the descendant of migrants - unless your family has never left the Rift Valley (or northern Botswana). Migration has always been the result of overpopulation at a particular time and place.
Aborigines were migrants, but after having Australia all to themselves for 40,000 years plus, there were no more than about a million people spread over the whole continent. Clearly their children weren't making it to adulthood, or they were periodically being decimated by drought or they were killing each other off. Probably all three. Nobody has been able to offer any evidence that they had effective means of contraception.
@@chriswatson1698 So Brittish must leave Australia and go back to the UK! Fucking idiot racist!
@@aaronsingh8513 you crying about dead people you beggar
Discrimination on the basis of race is unfair because none of us can choose our race or change it. But racism is no better or worse than sexism or ageism.
We have no obligation to be fair when choosing people with whom to share our inheritance. Migrants come to Australia to get a slice of the wealth that earlier waves of migrants have built.
We are very unfair when we entice trained people to come here. One of the really nasty ways in which rich countries sponge off poor countries, is by poaching their trained people.
Doesnt matter to racists
