Overseas student go home?

In this morning, I have read a newspaper is talking about the immigration office is going to cut down the number of immigrant. Since 2008-2009, there are 93500 peoples crowed into Melbourne. They afraid other culture is going to dominate their culture. That’s truth, every country should be protect and retain their features. It makes me much more understanding why there is some hate groups always fight for racial purity.


Let’s me write some information about Hate Group and Extremism which I learned in the lecture. “Extremism is characterized by dogmatic intolerance, expressed mildly or violently and inclines toward an inflexible obedience to an accepted authority, shaped by a common ideology or sense of group unity. (Gardner, 1997).”Hate group aims to fight for Racial Purity, Anti-Semitism, Anti-Liberal, and Anti-Government and so on. Nowadays there are a lot of hates group around the world. According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, they counted 932 active hates group in USA in 2009, they have their belief and practices to attack the people. Hate group activities can include criminal acts, marches, rallies, speeches, meetings, leafleting or publishing.( Southern Poverty Law Center ).



How can I define it is a hate group? The first time when I have a look of their website, I thought that it is a space for the Australian people group together especially the patriot. However, it is not. They are post a lot of article or ideas support the white Australia policy. They against the Asia, Africa countries arrive here. And they are using the website to notice their member of their event. “Overseas student go home” this sentence comes from the Australia First Party. They have published an article, the topic is oversea student go back which is under their website. Even that article hasn’t posted it but the topic is really attracted me. When I have a look of their other article such as Australia First Party to Oppose 'Islamic School' On Gold Coast, Overseas student go home and so on. They have put all the information in its website to transmit message and recruit new members. They put their rules and requirement of the organization in the website. (Through the rules of 3.1-3.7, you can know that their aim of the organization). Not only the rules and requirement also the movement of the organization, their activities, leaflet, their contact method, the profile of the group leader, publication, their future plan etc you can find it out in the website. One important thing is that since they are all-round organizations, they will include some external links in their website in order to strengthen themselves. When you have a look of the hate group thoroughly, you can find that they have a lot of common points in their website.

Although I know the purpose of the hate group (some of them just wanted to protect their country), I still can not understand why they have to use the extremist way to solve the problem. I believe that there are a lot of methods to express their view without violence. For example, blogging, facebook, culture jamming can also express their unsatisfactory. Fortunately, there are some organization is going to against the hate group. For example, The Southern Poverty Law Center educates the children to reject hate, embrace diversity and respect differences,tack and destory the network of the hate group.

Here are a video which is recorded from the CNN about the hate group!!
