On Father’s Day I enjoyed the most authentic Italian food I’ve had in Australia and I wanted to share something about the experience. But this post is not really about food. This is about the value of immigration at a moment in history when immigration is being criticised, including – incredibly – by immigrants andContinue reading “Rich Food, Rich Life”

Queenslanders Better Hope Billy Be Woke
Preface: I wrote this article while overseas when I left the country two days after the failed Referendum. In saying that I am well aware of my privilege in being able to escape the issues that lie behind the failed Referendum, not only in being fortunate enough to afford to travel, but also in not carryingContinue reading “Queenslanders Better Hope Billy Be Woke”
Woke AI
I only learned about the latest anti-woke attack by the Technofeudalist Elon Musk Tuesday evening as I watched Jonathan Ferro and Lisa Abramowicz on Bloomberg. Ironically a few days earlier I had decided to interrogate Open AI’s Dalle 2 about wokes by asking it to draw “a pencil sketch of a person being ‘woke’” whichContinue reading “Woke AI”

This past year I have opened my eyes and heart more than ever to the need for progress towards true reconciliation. As the Uluru Statement From The Heart website says, First NationsContinue reading “Redeeming Imposter”
The Great Reset: Inevitable, irreversible, deep-rooted in connection
The Great Reset is the era in human history that we entered (or which accelerated) in the COVID-19 pandemic where connection with ourselves, within society, and to the natural environment, and fairness, equity, inclusion and compassion superseded accumulation of material wealth and ‘winning’ as the primary aspiration within societies leading to more balanced and sustainableContinue reading “The Great Reset: Inevitable, irreversible, deep-rooted in connection”
The Great Reset: Humanity demands leaders walk while chewing gum in the 21st century
The criticism most often levelled at President Franklin D Roosevelt – President of the United States from 1933 until his death in 1945 – is that he did not tackle racism and inequality. Excuses are made that the Great Depression and then World War II were such serious issues that political capital and attention hadContinue reading “The Great Reset: Humanity demands leaders walk while chewing gum in the 21st century”
