Emma Garlett provided a valuable insight into racism.
I was on a social outing to a park. I noticed two toughs. White, male, overweight. Tattoos, studs and yes, mullets. Quintessential bogans.
A young kid ran past them, slipped and fell.
within seconds these bogans were with him. They made sure he was all right. Gave him words of comfort, helped him up, dusted him off and smiled as he ran on.
if only I had had Emma's advice. I would have known that these bogans were racist thugs.
instead, I made the mistake of judging them by their actions.
