Chinese Australian
The Chinese migrated to regional Victoria in the late 1800s in search of gold. Instead they often found persecution and violence. Today, Bendigo is a city of contrasts and one that is trying to reconcile its past. The few descendants of those early Chinese settlers that remain in the town are each trying to rediscover a side of their history that was too often seen as shameful. For Michael Hing, the experience is a personal one. His ancestors settled in regional New South Wales, but they just as easily could have called Bendigo home.
The Next Generation
Hing travels to the town of Woolgoolga, a town with a population of around 4500 people, but it is home to the largest regional settlement of Sikhs in Australia. Woolgoolga's Sikh community are now blueberry barons: 75% of Australia's blueberries are grown here. The community that was founded before Federation by a handful of migrant banana farmers from India has now grown to half the population.
The Basketball Star
In regional Queensland, one community has made a very big impression in a very short time. Fleeing decades of war and unrest, Toowoomba's South Sudanese community started nearly 20 years ago with just three families. It has since grown rapidly, but has struggled to find a place as media drum up fear of ‘African youth' in Australia. The Sudanese community in Toowoomba is fighting to reclaim a positive image.
