Adorno, Minima Moralia </p><p>"The referendum, Mr Sivaraman said, had "mainstreamed a torrent of racism" and emboldened people to "immediately challenge" any small measure granting self-determination to Indigenous people. People feel like the defeat of the Voice has given them licence to espouse their racist views...Racism towards First Nations people within Australia had been a "constant" for 238 years that "escalated dramatically" when there was something to attach it to, like cultural heritage protections or the Voice referendum." <br>>><br><a
