Immigration nation: the secret history of us.

"It is the dawn of the 20th century and Australia has a dream. A newly Federated country, she wants to become the most progressive and egalitarian nation the world has ever seen. But at the heart of this bright utopian vision lies a dark paradox. Democracy, equality and freedom will be safeguarded for whites and whites only. It is a fundamental contradiction that will take almost a century of extraordinary evolution and struggle to overcome. Immigration nation – the secret history of us is the story of how modern multicultural Australia was forged against the odds"--Container.
