Black and Proud by Matthew Klugman,Gary Osmond Pdf

It is one of Australia’s most iconic images. On 17 April 1993, the Indigenous AFL footballer Nicky Winmar stood up against racial abuse and made history. Facing the Collingwood crowd that had taunted him all day the St Kilda player pulled up his shirt, pointed to his chest and declared: ‘I’m black and I’m proud to be black’. Published the next day, the photos of Winmar’s gesture sparked an intense debate that forced the AFL, the fans and the nation to confront their prejudices head-on. Black and Proud takes us behind the searing image to the stories of those who made it happen – the Indigenous team-mates Nicky Winmar and Gilbert McAdam and the two photographers, Wayne Ludbey and John Feder. Bound by a love of the game, the four were brought together by acts of courage and vilification that show how far we have come and just how far we have to go. ‘17 April 1993 provided our most powerful image of Uncle Nicky and this book takes us to the stories behind it. These stories are courageous, inspiring, intimate and eye-opening. This is a book all Australians need to read.’ – Adam Goodes

Why I Am so Proud to Be a Black Man by Mr. Michael,Ms. C Pdf

In the beginning, when God created the black man, He gave all his wisdom to his first creations without boundaries and fears. Unfortunately, for far too long, black men have been portrayed negatively in our society and by the daily rhetoric that surrounds us. In their comprehensive study compiled with facts, stories, and historical experiences, husband and wife team Mr. Michael and Ms. C illustrate to all black men that they should no longer feel degraded, but instead be bursting with pride about their heritage.

By encouraging black men to face racial hatred and demand respect, Mr. Michael and Ms. C lay a foundation intended to help all black men find the purpose of their existence. Also included are biographies of famous black men who overcame obstacles and changed the world. Why I Am So Proud to Be a Black Man shares the knowledge that can open the eyes, minds, and hearts of the African American community, enabling all to embrace Gods first, primal purpose.

Black and Proud by Matthew Klugman,Gary Osmond Pdf

At a time when racial abuse was entrenched in Australian sport but rarely discussed, and indigenous AFL players still received regular death threats, Nicky Winmar was photographed lifting his jumper and pointing with pride to the colour of his skin--an image that changed the nation. Controversy erupted, race and football dominated public debate and the AFL announced that racial abuse was reportable, setting the scene for the first ever sporting racial vilification laws. Once 'part of the game', racial abuse by AFL players and spectators became socially unacceptable. Yet the enduring appeal of this image also lies in the continued racism and discrimination faced by Australia's indigenous peoples, who endure appalling rates of disease and crime, life expectancies 20 years below non-indigenous Australians, ongoing struggles for social and cultural recognition, and controversial government policing strategies and welfare interventions. On what is now the 20th anniversary of this image, Black and Proud (working title) traces a story of triumph and enduring social and cultural loss.
