WARWICK Thornton says he's deeply concerned that the Southern Cross is becoming a symbol of racism for some Australians.

The filmmaker, who has been chosen as the Northern Territory's nomination for Australian of the Year, wants people to spend Australia Day reflecting on the symbolic significance of the national icon.

"Aboriginal people have used the Southern Cross for the last 40,000 years as a beacon guiding them to travel through country for survival, and I'm starting to see that star system symbol being used as a very racist nationalistic emblem - and that is seriously worrying me,'' Thornton said


"We don't want to turn the Southern Cross into a swastika - that's bloody important.

"We should think about that on Australia Day and the bigger issue of what it represents, why is it happening.''

A contender for 2010 Australian of the Year, Thornton said the accolade should be given to someone who saves lives, and not someone who "just asks questions''.

"I've got Buckley's chance of winning it,'' he said.

"I'm just really happy to win the Territory side of it and go to Canberra and have a beer with the PM - that'll be pretty cool.''

Winning numerous Australian and international awards for his debut feature film, Samson and Delilah, Thornton said the film showed there was a darker side to central Australia.

"A lot of people around the world tell me they have been to Alice Springs and have seen the incredible landscape, but never knew about the sort of slight tragedy in that landscape, so (the film) really did open up a lot of eyes and minds and thoughts.''

Thornton is currently working on a three-hour ABC documentary series about contemporary Aboriginal art and writing a draft for a new feature film.

It's because of that article that I keep putting a Southern Cross sticker on the back of my car. Personally, I think of the Southern Cross as a mess of blow-flies and couldn't give a damn; but if something as simple as that can upset a Libtard ...  :rahowa

The lib-tards will go you for daring to park on a disabled parking spot to take the pic!

Yes. I'll have to return to that spot at West Beach on another day when the road is empty to get a photo with the CREATIVEITWORLD.COM (http://creativeitworld.com/) sticker. Free advertising!  :D

I guess anything that we racially opinionated types are into will become associated with "racism" and "nazi" stuff.

What else would be fun to turn "racist"? Smiley faces and other emoticons? how about every picture of the rainbow as long as it doesn't have black outlines? hahahaha.. 

Condoms are racist. They are like KKK uniforms for your little racial warrior HAHA

Already done that ...

I heard a story that Bruce Dickinson from Iron Maiden didn't even like the St George flag being flown at a show and he told them to take that down. A bit over the top.

Well you can't have the Confederate flag anymore. The Eureka flag is considered racist. It is going to be like Germany soon where if you are photographed next to a Swastika even on a historic artefact like a tank or a plane you can be in trouble.. so if you want to show support  of Hitler you do stuff like get a Tattoo of an 8 ball on you.. so how long before 8 balls are considered racist?

Same libtard crap, different day ...

'The Southern Cross is becoming the new Swastika': New documentary examines 'hijacking' of national icon

http://www.news.com.au/entertainment/movies/new-movies/the-southern-cross-is-becoming-the-new-swastika-new-documentary-examines-hijacking-of-national-icon/news-story/6df437be01344c301ad02221e17d893a

Extract: The Swastika, a Sanskrit symbol for good fortune, is now synonymous with death in the west, after being adopted as the symbol of Germany's murderous Nazi Party in the 1930s.

Similarly, the Southern Cross has been adopted in Australia by the extreme right-wing as a symbol of bigotry, hatred and nationalist pride ....


The Southern Cross, along with the Australian flag, is the favoured symbol of groups such the anti-Muslim Reclaim Australia and United Patriots Front movements.
Simply put, Mr Thornton said, the Southern Cross has been "hijacked by dickheads".

The 2010 Australian of the Year nominee has made the symbolism of the Southern Cross the subject of a new documentary, We Don't Need a Map, screening as part of the Sydney Film Festival.
