- Jews fenced in by Aussie intolerance
 Given that eruvs are inconspicuous, and religious freedom in Australia is a fait accompli,
there can be only one explanation for the prevailing sentiment, and
that is a subtle prejudice which represents the great big elephant in
the room for anyone living on Sydney's North Shore.

- Keeping vigil for slain Indian student
 They came to stop the violence. Four, maybe five of them, in hooded jackets and pale, worn jeans. Hovering in the car
park. Shadow-like. Haunted. We
were gathered outside the place to which he had come, bleeding, begging
for help. Wrongly, we assumed they had come to join us.

- Carols in the gangland
 Men of dark hair and olive skin travelling in packs, bound by an unbreakable tradition. They have found a niche for themselves in South-West Sydney, and no matter how they are stereotyped, they continue to
meet, greet and roar as they beat, pa-rum-pum-pum-pum, on their drums.

- Back to the future for international students
 Visits by our senior politicians offering glib reassurances
will not halt the turndown in Indian enrolments in our tertiary institutions. We need to revisit the days when we treated international

- Race riots and the multiplex
 The boys of Lebanon have found a niche in Aussie pop culture. Several recent films deal with Arab-Australians as the 'other',
examining the extent of their assimilation, the codes they live
by, and their functions within a 'tolerant' society.

- The economic cost of race violence
 The Reserve Bank now places education behind only coal and iron ore as Australia's most important export. It is difficult to understand how the targeting of
international students is not viewed with greater urgency.

- Why we're losing the war on racism
 When discussing racism, the response is as important as the
accusation. The slow response
from police and political leaders to the recent spate of
Indian-bashings demonstrates what can occur when racism is tackled
passively.

- Between the Department of Immigration and a hard place
 Justice for Sanara's family has become a point of debate. For some
it demands removing them to their homeland. For others, that they be allowed to make a home in
Australia. Sanara, three, just wants food in her belly and a house that is safe.

- Life of a perpetual migrant
 The Rudd Government's rationale for cutting migration to Australia is economic, rather than humane. Migrants are forever tapping at the window of the past, unable to ever truly go home.
