Solidarity Against Racism
Peter Boyle argues that broader alliances are needed to build solidarity with Palestine and against racist attacks.
The racist March for Australia (MFA) movement emerged after a large solidarity march for Gaza, with up to 300,000 people marching across the Sydney Harbour Bridge.
The mass surge of solidarity was understood by the racist right as a deadly threat to its dreams to build a mass anti-immigrant movement.
Far-right and white supremacist activists aim to build a mass right-wing populist movement in Australia, similar to those in European countries and the US.
