This paper examines the discourses of multiculturalism in 1990s Australian drama, operating between 'the sexiness of difference and the unattainable authenticity that multiculturalism seems to still require' (117).
Notes
-
Epigraph: Thou shalt be ethnic, our legislators say; thou shalt honour thy mother tongue; thou shalt celebrate thy difference in folk festivals; and thou shalt receive monies to write about thy difference (providing thou art a member of an ethnic organization that sponsors the application). And we have responded to that call, ethnics and non-ethnics alike; we have responded by discovering that difference is sexy. S. Kamboureli.
