"A robust, not to say muscular, defence of Australia against the fashionable claims that it's a racist country established on stolen land, with a chronic cultural cringe. Anyone who loves Australia will appreciate Sufi's rebuttal of such bunk."
Niall Ferguson
"For a long time, the debate about Australia's past has been torn between a Left that says it was all too shameful and a Right that sometimes struggles to acknowledge that which was shameful. In this book, Dr Sherry Sufi has struck the balance just right. He argues that Australia is not a racist country built on stolen land and it certainly has a way of life worth defending. I agree with these conclusions. This book should be prescribed reading."
Warren Mundine
Many on the left reckon Australia is a racist country built on stolen land that doesn't even have a culture or way of life. Many on the right reckon we have plenty to celebrate, the left has lost the plot and wishes to guilt trip us all for perceived and actual wrongdoings of the past, for which the current generation can't be held responsible. This book hopes to take you beyond the usual left-right argybargy in plain lingo. It brings you a balanced point of view that makes a modest attempt at bridging the gap between competing interpretations. This isn't a history book. It's a book aimed at regular folks to help us think through present-day challenges we face together as a nation due to stuff that happened in the past and continues to impact our lives.
