Australia has launched a parliamentary inquiry into racism and hate directed at Indigenous people following reports of increased online abuse and violent rhetoric, particularly since the 2023 failed voice referendum and recent alleged terror attacks. Multiple high-profile Indigenous Australians documented a surge in racist messages, with the Jumbunna Institute's Call It Out register receiving approximately 500 reports annually of discriminatory incidents.
