flag Australia's race commissioner warns that prioritizing "social cohesion" over addressing racism may hinder efforts to combat discrimination, especially after a 2024 Hanukkah attack.

flag Australia's race discrimination commissioner, Giridharan Sivaraman, has warned that the growing use of "social cohesion" in political discourse may indirectly promote assimilation and distract from addressing racism, including anti-Semitism. flag This concern follows a 2024 report by the Australian Human Rights Commission showing governments increasingly prioritize the term over direct discussions of racism. flag The shift intensified after a December 2024 terrorist attack at a Hanukkah event in Bondi Beach that killed 15 people. flag Critics argue that focusing on cohesion instead of confronting systemic racism risks minimizing discrimination and slowing progress toward true inclusion and equity.
