Hands off 18c: Sign the petition!


Racism is on the rise around the world – and Australia is no exception. Together, we must resist.

Watch the video explaining how the far-right's attack on section 18c of the Racial Discrimination Act is an attack on the safety of Aboriginal, Torres Strait Islander and multicultural communities – and what we can all do to fight back.


GetUp members are pulling together to fund a campaign to defend against the attacks on Section 18c.

So far, nearly 1300 people have chipped in, allowing us to put up posters and billboards across marginal multicultural electorates.

By standing with affected communities, we can send a strong message to politicians that pandering to racism and xenophobia in the short-term has long-term consequences.

Our racial justice strategy is going to harness the power of local communities, traditional grassroots organisisng, and cutting edge digital tactics to fight growing xenophobia and right-wing populism.

SIGN THE PETITION!

We call on all members of the Government to preserve section 18C of the Racial Discrimination Act.
