Australia’s race discrimination commissioner has raised concerns about the growing threat of white supremacy after a neo-Nazi rally in Corowa, New South Wales.
Approximately 50 individuals, masked and armed with a banner reading “white man fight back,” gathered at a war memorial, alarming residents and prompting condemnation from political leaders.
Australia’s race discrimination commissioner emphasized the need for a national strategy to address white supremacy and racism, calling for anti-racism action to combat such ideologies.
The Australian Human Rights Commission plans to urge the government to lead national anti-racism efforts in November through the National Anti-Racism Framework.
NSW Premier Chris Minns condemned the neo-Nazi rally, asserting that such behavior is unacceptable in the state and will be met with police intervention.
No arrests have been made as authorities investigate the incident, with the public urged to report any information to Crime Stoppers.
