African American newspapers frequently ran reports and stories about Indigenous Australians and Australia's racial governance between 1919 and 1948, except for the years during World War II when thousands of African American servicemen were stationed in Australia. The black American press was extremely critical of “White Australia.” African American newspaper writers used the phrase “White Australia” to refer both to the famed or notorious Australian immigration laws and to prevailing race relations in labor management. When they reported on Indigenous Australians, they took careful note of conditions that were akin to American slavery and its aftermath and remarked upon the similar regimes of racial governance. As far as the black American press was concerned, Indigenous Australians were one of the many nodes that comprised a worldwide alliance of colonized people; black internationalism included them, too. From 1942 to 1944, however, the press placed that alliance on hold. Newspapers instead focused on the surprisingly benign treatment they said black American troops received from white Australians. As it became clear that the Allies were likely to triumph, black American newspapers returned to criticism of “White Australia” and to an abstract bond with Aboriginal Australians, as they pressed forward with claims to universal human rights and with agitation to end all colonization as part of the worldwide return to peace.

黑人国际主义的转移同盟:非裔美国人报纸,白澳政策和土著澳大利亚人,1919-1948年

非裔美国人报纸经常刊登有关1919至1948年间澳大利亚土著人和澳大利亚种族治理的报道和故事,但第二次世界大战期间数千名非洲裔美国人驻扎在澳大利亚。美国黑人新闻界对“澳大利亚白人”极为批评。非裔美国人的报纸撰稿人使用“白人澳大利亚”一词来指代著名的或臭名昭著的澳大利亚移民法,以及劳动管理中的现行种族关系。当他们报道澳大利亚土著人时,他们仔细地注意到了类似于美国奴隶制及其后果的情况,并提到了类似的种族统治制度。就黑人美国媒体而言,澳大利亚土著人是组成全球殖民者联盟的众多节点之一。黑人国际主义也包括在内。但是,从1942年到1944年,新闻界将该联盟搁置了。相反,报纸集中在他们说黑人美国人从白人澳大利亚人那里得到的令人惊讶的良性待遇。显然盟军很可能会取得胜利,美国黑人报纸再次批评“白人澳大利亚”,并与原住民澳大利亚人建立了抽象的联系,因为他们敦促主张普遍人权并煽动以结束一切殖民主义为由。全球恢复和平的一部分。相反,报纸集中在他们说黑人美国人从白人澳大利亚人那里得到的令人惊讶的良性待遇。显然盟军很可能会取得胜利,美国黑人报纸再次批评“白人澳大利亚”,并与原住民澳大利亚人建立了抽象的联系,因为他们敦促主张普遍人权并煽动以结束一切殖民主义为由。全球恢复和平的一部分。相反,报纸集中在他们说黑人美国人从白人澳大利亚人那里得到的令人惊讶的良性待遇。显然盟军很可能会取得胜利,美国黑人报纸再次批评“白人澳大利亚”,并与原住民澳大利亚人建立了抽象的联系,因为他们敦促主张普遍人权并煽动以结束一切殖民主义为由。全球恢复和平的一部分。
