Thinking about the marches tomorrow. I’m an immigrant. I’ve lived in Australia for 40 years. No one has ever told me to go back to where I came from. I guess I’m one of “the good ones”* *white

A few years back, I was on a train when a drunk racist called out, lets count the Australians on the train. I went up to him and said, I think you counted me, he nodded. I then pointed out I was a Kiwi, so skin colour is not a judge of being Australian. This was also 1 stop before I got off.

Kia Ora. Some people pick my very slight accent - most don’t. Being a pākehā they never pick I’m not one of them.

I'm a white Pommie, been here 48 years. Only a few years in I had a financial disagreement with an Armenian mechanic. He told me to go back to where I came from 😁 That perhaps surprisingly endeared me to multicultural Australia. We are all equal.
