Today we will speak about:What really happened at Gallipoli? Separating the history from the myth.The  Anzac  Legend  has  been  the  subject  of a lot of debate  between historians,  but  there  has been not enough  attention  given  to  the  highly  contested  nature  of  Anzac  from  the  very beginning  of  its  history.Anzac  has  been  a  site  for  intense   political  debate  and  social  division,  as  well  as  a focus  of  national  unity.The labour movement and working - class Australians have been in the front of this debate, refusing to allow conservatives to take over its cultural and historical meanings.
