Abstract
It occurs to me, following the backlash to Safe Schools, and more recently in wider politics with the rejection of the Uluru statement, that it is when practices go beyond tolerance to celebration or affirmation that the greatest backlash occurs. Why is this? Because it requires work on the part of the accepted and neutralised majority. As the adage goes, when you're accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression.
