Summary
Australia’s Holocaust legacy is at the heart of a major royal commission, as Professor David Slucki warns that understanding Jewish identity and generational trauma is vital for societal cohesion. Speaking at Melbourne hearings, he emphasized that many Australian Jews are descendants of Holocaust survivors, and their lives are deeply shaped by that history. The commission is now turning its focus to Sydney, where upcoming hearings will examine protests at the Opera House and NSW Parliament, including whether outside actors are fueling campus violence — a concern echoed by university leaders citing a surge in reported hate incidents since October 7. Slucki also urges nuanced dialogue around Zionism and anti-Zionism, noting most Jewish Australians support a two-state solution, and calls for moving beyond seeing disagreement as inherently evil.
