[quote=Anonymous]I was in Australia for weeks and I noticed it quite a bit. In one incident we were given a special privilege at a tourist site by a man. We hadn’t asked for this and were confused by why it happened. When he shouted out to him (it involved a ride) he told us it was because we looked the part and winked. It was so odd. Though I can’t prove it, I’m almost certain it was because we were white. I was also really disturbed by the situation with the indigenous people in the outback and the openness in which many elements of society (including non-white) disparaged them. I don’t think you would experience any violence but I could see some discrimination occurring. [/quote]
