<span style="margin: 0px; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: black">Replicas of colonisation and the ‘foundation’ of nations by colonisers are not new topics; indeed, such matters have been discussed widely in recent times. Truth-telling has been at the
centre of major protests challenging the continued commemoration of the people, symbols and narratives of colonisation. The winds of change are blowing - In the lead up to Australia Day in 2017 a statue of James Cook and a memorial to colonial ‘explorers’
Burke and Wills were targeted in Melbourne. Pink paint was poured on Cook’s head and the words “no pride” were painted beneath his feet. In Sydney the statue of Cook in Hyde Park was also targeted with spray paint, “no pride in genocide” and “change the date”.
Monuments of Lachlan Macquarie and Queen Victoria were also targeted with similar messages. In all cases, the defenders of the symbols of colonialism have employed similar rhetoric to argue against either retelling stories or removing the symbols of colonialism,
ethnic-cleansing, genocide, oppression and dispossession.</span></p>
