STEREOTYPES PERPETUATED IN THE MEDIA OF REFUGEES AND ASYLUM SEEKERS Kristina Murfitt

ILLEGAL IT IS NOT ILLEGAL TO SEEK ASYLUM IN AUSTRALIA INSTEAD OF LEGAL

QUEUE JUMPERS RATHER THAN GENUINE ASYLUM SEEKERS FLEEING PERSECUTION

TERRORISTS & CRIMINALS

SOME PEOPLE BELIEVE WHAT THEY SEE AND ACT ON THEIR BELIEFS RACISM DISCRIMINATION

EDUCATION IS THE FIRST STEP IN STOPPING THESE STEREOTYPES

CAMPAIGNS CAN HELP TO DITCH THE STEREOTYPES

AS WELL AS PROTESTS AND ACTION TO CHANGE GOVERNMENT REFORM
