I have been wondering why so much research from countries with non-white peoples don’t seem to impact in our Australian media?
Any thoughts?
Do you have any stats on that?

In my upbringing, it was pure chance really that I was born of a self taught teacher. She had books that were educational standard but unaccepted by the current school curriculm at the time. They told a truer tale of the indigenous peoples than what I was taught in school, among other undisclosed knowledge as far as school at the time was doing for me.
She probably either never noticed that I’d read these or had put them there for me to find.

No stats dv at all just curious what other folks are thinking.
Prof Raina MacIntyre (a woman of colour) did extensive research in Australia and she is an international expert in her area. She went to a conference and another Australian came in went up to another white woman and said “You must be the other Australian? And I was hearing what some other folks were saying about their experiences, and how the experts in their countries research wasn’t taken seriously, that white academics really questioned it and said how do you know that this is so? So I was wondering if anyone else has considered this and/or know friends/family/colleague that have encountered this?

MacIntyre has been a regular commentator and contributor to Covid epidemiology, in The Guardian, The Sydney Morning Herald, as well as ABC News and Q+A. In a lunch interview with The Sydney Morning Herald she was described as a ‘globally renowned” and “the cautious coronavirus communicator”.

Doesn’t appear as if she is being ignored.

I suppose I’m in a field that doesn’t get media coverage at all, but the papers come from authors from all over: certainly most of them would still be from Europe and North America or Australia but a lot from Latin America or Africa or Asia.

Methinks social media is a different place.

That is not her experience as she discusses it though. She gave up talking to the Australian media due to how she was treated. Whilst she figured often early on. That was not sustained.

The last time she was quoted in the Gran was only a month ago:
