“…An online community is 'a group of people who regularly interact with each other online, especially to share information and opinions on a common interest' (Oxford Dictionaries 2017). A successful community creates a sense of belonging and fosters active engagement by its members making it a shared space rather than a publishing platform for the community manager (Jakubowicz et al 2017). Communities can be focused on addressing online hate, or that may be a small part of a broader agenda.…”

“…Governments have generally focused on approaches based on formal channels of communication and engagements working with targeted communities through peak community representative bodies, service provision organisations or local governments (Paradies et al 2009; Office for the Community Sector 2013; Victorian Auditor-General's Office 2015). Online racism, when addressed at all, has been seen as an adjunct to racism more generally (Jakubowicz et al 2017). Engagement with new technology in anti-racism efforts has focused primarily on marketing (Jakubowicz et al 2017).…”

“…Past work has looked at the different approaches used, and their strengths and weaknesses, across both the traditional approaches by government agencies, local governments, community service providers, and community peak bodies, and the new approaches by natively digital civil society organisations and grassroots groups (Jakubowicz et al 2017). To be more effective, online communities of resistance and solidarity need to bring together both the flexibility and energy of the new organisations and grassroots groups and the formal authority that comes from the endorsement and support of governments and peak community representative bodies.…”

The Cyber-Racism and Community Resilience (CRaCR) project included an examination into features of online communities of resistance and solidarity. This work formed a key part of the project’s focus on resilience and produced a deeper understanding of a range of types of actors working in this space and how they might individually contribute effectively to creating resilience. The need for new synergies between different types of stakeholders and approaches was highlighted as an area of future work. This paper explores a design for that future work that builds and supports online communities of resistance and solidarity by drawing on the lessons from the earlier research and extending them. This new work both presents a model for cooperation and explains how different stakeholders can positively engage under the model in a smarter way. That is, through a system which facilitates Solidarity in Moving Against Racism Together while Enabling Resilience. This new approach draws on the strengths of individuals actors, but also seeks to turn points of weakness for one actor into opportunities for cooperation that strengthen the system as a whole.

Australia today is a culturally diverse nation with people from over 190 different countries claiming 300 different ancestries. But despite an official commitment to diversity, contemporary Australian society continues to experience tensions between multicultural policies and a legacy of Anglo privilege and cultural dominance. To assess this, the Challenging Racism Project conducted a national survey, commissioned by the Special Broadcasting Service, to gauge the nature and extent of racist attitudes and experience of racism across Australia during July–August 2015 and November 2015. Results show that sociodemographic characteristics show little contemporary relationship to racist attitudes. Age, once associated with “old” racist attitudes, is no longer significant. On the other hand, Anglo privilege is empirically linked to racism through notions of social dominance. We conclude that it is to the media, and to public discourse generally, to which future research attention, using critical discourse analysis, should turn in efforts to make Australia a fairer, more tolerant, multicultural society.

Attention toward how technology may be used to perpetuate racism is warranted given the global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. We examined cyberspaces associated with the counseling profession to estimate the prevalence and impact of cyber racism using a crosssectional design. Results indicated that exposure to cyber racism may impact emotions and perceived inclusion in groups. K E Y W O R D S color evasiveness, counselor education, inclusion, racism ResumenDado el impacto global de la pandemia por COVID-19, es pertinente prestar atención a cómo la tecnología puede ser usada para perpetuar el racismo. Examinamos ciberespacios asociados con la profesión de la consejería para estimar la prevalencia e impacto del racismo en internet usando un diseño transversal. Los resultados indicaron que la exposición al racismo en internet puede tener un impacto sobre las emociones y la percepción de inclusión en grupos. PA L A B R A S C L AV E educación en consejería, racismo, inclusión, negación del racismoSystemic racism has remained a persistent force in the lives of those who are Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) and is a phenomenon that is imperative for the counseling profession to address (Gonzalez & Cokley, 2021). Although the American Counseling Association (ACA, 2014) overtly states its value for diversity and inclusion, BIPOC are underrepresented in the counseling profession. For example, BIPOC counseling students and faculty may oftentimes find themselves in the minority due to low enrollment and recruitment of BIPOC faculty and students (Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs [CACREP], 2018; Zeligman et al., 2015). Such racial disparities may create fertile ground for impacted emotional experiences and racialized exclusion among BIPOC students and faculty.
