Has Australia changed since the Cronulla Riots?

from The Daily Aus · host The Daily Aus

This week marks 20 years since the Cronulla Riots, when hundreds of angry young white Australian men descended on Cronulla train station and beach in Sydney’s south, attacking anyone of Middle Eastern appearance. In today’s episode, we explain the context surrounding the riots, including the role of broadcaster Alan Jones, the day itself, and explore how Australia has changed since then.
