The Collingwood venue has been criticised for hosting a pro-Palestine event by Indigenous activists where a banner was made calling Israelis “dumb white dogs”.
A Melbourne wine bar and community radio station has come under fire for holding a pro-Palestine event at which a banner was made that called for the abolishment of the state of Israel and described Israelis as “colonising dumb white dogs”.
Dvir Abramovich, chair of Jewish-Australian community organisation the Anti-Defamation Commission, said he was distressed by the banner. He said it was one example of skyrocketing incidents of antisemitism unfolding in Australia, including children being harassed at school and “stomach churning” online abuse and trolling of Jewish people.
Australia’s Islamophobia Register has also reported soaring reports of abuse among Muslim community members since the attacks.and who reported that they have been verbally abused in their businesses.
