ABSTRACT Acts of resistance to racism in Australian sport are associated mainly with the 1990s and onwards, especially in Australian rules football. A century earlier, however, on the running tracks of Victoria and in the swimming baths at Kalgoorlie, Western Australia, a Fijian athlete called Sala Bogi stood up to racism on several occasions. This article analyses the personal and legal trials of Bogi in his encounters with, and resistance to, racism. While his case conjures later examples of racism, including the prohibition on the use of swimming pools by Aboriginal people in New South Wales towns in the mid-20th century, it holds deeper significance. Through his personal agency and public stance against racism, Bogi suggests that individual resistance to institutionalised racism has a longer history than previously realised.

Sala Bogi 的审判:运动中的种族、种族主义和抵抗

摘要 澳大利亚体育中抵制种族主义的行为主要与 1990 年代及以后有关,尤其是在澳式足球中。然而,在一个世纪前,在维多利亚州的跑道上和西澳大利亚州卡尔古利的游泳馆里,一位名叫 Sala Bogi 的斐济运动员曾数次站出来反对种族主义。本文分析了博吉在遭遇和抵制种族主义时的个人和法律审判。虽然他的案件让人联想到后来的种族主义案例,包括 20 世纪中叶禁止原住民在新南威尔士州城镇使用游泳池,但它具有更深层次的意义。通过他的个人代理和反对种族主义的公开立场,博吉表明个人对制度化种族主义的抵抗比以前意识到的历史更长。
