Summary
“And compared to other countries, we confer extraordinary power to the minister of immigration.”Australia’s modern history began with it as a recipient of harsh immigration policies, with Britain sending tens of thousands of criminals to Australian penal colonies for 80 years, before it stopped the practice in 1868.When Australia formed its first federal government in 1901, one of its first orders of business was to pass the Immigration Restriction Act, which was designed to keep out people of color from Asia, the Pacific Islands and elsewhere.The “White Australia” policy continued for decades before the last remnants were eliminated in the 1970s.One victim was Filipino-American Lorenzo Gamboa, who enlisted in the U.S. Army in 1941 and was evacuated to Australia when the Philippines fell to Japan.
