This book investigates the issue of racism in sport to understand how racism is manifested in Australian daily life. In doing this, it considers Indigenous history, social justice and equity, government policy, the media, everyday life, football culture and the emergence of Indigenous players in the game of Australian Football. It does this by drawing on a variety of social, cultural and historical themes and arrives at a greater understanding of what it means to be an Indigenous person living in Australia for the last 220 years. These social issues are explored through the genre of biography and the story of the Noongar footballers, Jim and Phillip Krakouer, who played for Claremont and North Melbourne in the late 1970s and 1980s. This book, in looking at Jim and Phillip Krakouers careers, engages with other Indigenous footballers contributions prior to the AFL introducing Racial and Religious Vilification Laws in 1995. This book offers a way of reading cultural texts and difference to understand Indigenous and non-Indigenous relationships in an Australian context.
