  • How did we get to the White Australia policy in the first place? In Episode 2 of Australia Fair, host Janak Rogers dives into the long and turbulent history of Australia’s relationship with China. From today’s sensational media coverage stoking fears of Chinese invasion to the discriminatory fallout of the COVID-19 pandemic, the episode explores how these issues intersect with Australia's historical prejudices and contemporary anxieties. We delve into the dark legacy of anti-Chinese sentiment from the Gold Rush era, tracing its influence on policies like the White Australia policy and its modern manifestations. Featuring interviews with filmmaker Corrie Chen, historians Natalie Fong and Anna Kyi and more, Janak tries to upack the complex relationship between Australia and China, and reflect on the historical roots that continue to shape our nation's approach to race and immigration.
