Are we ready to redefine Australia Day?

The cliches about our identity get rolled out every Australia Day. But in recent times, what, and more importantly, who counts as Australian has been co-opted by far-right fringe groups with a view to exclusion. Undeniably, Australian pride is not as simple as many would like to think. This week on Please Explain, national editor Tory Maguire examines Australian identity in 2019 and how Australians might redefine what it means to be proud of their country. Guests:  Lisa Davies - Editor of the Sydney Morning Herald. Stan Grant - ABC's Global Affairs and Indigenous Affairs analyst. He is about to release his book Australia Day. Michelle Simmons - 2018 Australian of the Year and quantum phsyicist at the University of New South Wales.
