Charles Perkins and the Freedom Rides, 1965

(1)
Modelled on the U.S. Freedom Rides in the early 1960s, Charles Perkins embarked on a Freedom Ride of his own with Sydney University students in 1965. The event was followed closely by the Australian media who reported on the disruptions to the life of country towns. In the longer-term, however, the road trip highlighted the racial inequities and discrimination against Aboriginal peoples. This Powerpoint presentation gives an overview of the ride and the impact on Aboriginal rights.
Non-Jewish Victims of the Holocaust

Non-Jewish Victims of the Holocaust

(0)
This Powerpoint presentation holds back no punches and has had a powerful impact on students. It gives as overview of some of the groups subject to Nazi persecution and execution during the Holocaust: ethnic Poles, Mentally and physically disabled people, Jehovah's Witnesses, homosexuals, ethnic Russians and Russian prisoners of war, Gypsies, political prisoners, Christians and asocials. I include embedded clips from YouTube and look at the survival/treatment of each of each of these groups today. Nothing in this presentation is my own. The content is disturbing, the images haunting. May we learn from the past
