Back to EpisodesHoward's Lasting Impact: Belonging
Description
The High Courts Mabo decision marked a turning point in Australia, recognizing native title for the first time. However, John Howard, then in opposition, capitalized on this, warning of threats to everyday property rights. He downplayed the nations past, labeling dispossession and violence as minor flaws. Instead of apologizing to the Stolen Generations, Howard focused on national pride. Now, thirty years after his rise to power, author Amy Remeikis explores his lasting impact in her new series, The Howard Effect. The latest episode delves into the theme of belonging.
