3. The Bolt Case, 2011 Federal Court Bolt’s Articles cast aspersions about the Aboriginal identity of a number of named Aboriginal persons by questioning the motives of those persons for ‘choosing’ to be Aboriginal, as well as the basis for them identifying as Aboriginal. Bolt’s Articles cast aspersions about the Aboriginal identity of a number of named Aboriginal persons by questioning the motives of those persons for ‘choosing’ to be Aboriginal, as well as the basis for them identifying as Aboriginal. The Articles implied that our choice for identifying as Aboriginal was opportunistic and for the purpose of providing us with financial and other benefits reserved for ‘genuine’ Aboriginal persons who are darker, rather than fairer, skinned Aboriginal persons.

5. Articles conveyed the following imputations 1. The persons identified in the Articles, were not genuinely Aboriginal and were not bona fide in claiming to be, and identifying as, Aboriginal persons; 2. The persons described claim to be Aboriginal persons so they can access the benefits that are available to Aboriginal persons; 3. The only genuine Aboriginal persons, who may be treated as making a bona fide claim to be Aboriginal persons are persons whose parents are both of Aboriginal descent and who have darker rather than fairer skins and; Under Bolt’s criteria, persons having some Aboriginal descent but who are fairer rather than darker skinned, are disqualified from, and cannot properly be regarded as, genuinely self-identifying as, and being, Aboriginal persons.

13. Free Speech Protected ‘Bolt and his defenders were crying about an imagined right to unrestricted free speech. But speech is already restricted, for instance by Defamation laws that protect people’s reputations and by the Trade Practices Act, which outlaws false claims about products’ (Age, 2 October, 2011) ‘Bolt and his defenders were crying about an imagined right to unrestricted free speech.

14. Defence of Fair Comment, sec, 18D, RDA, 1975 Judge found that the defence of ‘fair comment’, which is also a defence in the Law of Defamation, requires that commentary be made on the basis of true facts. And that because of the factual inaccuracies, this could not be characterised as a fair comment. He also found that there was a lack of reasonableness and good faith on the part of Mr Bolt, because of the inaccuracies and also because of the manner of his mocking and satirical tone.

Section 18D, the defence section, is there to ensure that a public debate of this kind can be had. But it can't be had at all costs. It's possible to engage in a discussion about race, engage in a very critical discussion about race, but you must do so acting fairly and on the basis of true facts. And that is what was found to be absent by Justice Bromberg in the Bolt Case. Section 18D, the defence section, is there to ensure that a public debate of this kind can be had.

And that is what was found to be absent by Justice Bromberg in the Bolt Case. The Judge found that there was an infringement of Section 18C, that there was an imputation contained in the articles that would offend not only the particular group of people identified here, but a broader group of Aboriginal people, who would feel as a result of these articles, that they were not entitled to identify as Aboriginal, and that they would have the experience of having their successes questioned, and that other people might respond to them by thinking that whatever it is that they'd succeeded at in life was given to them on the basis that they were Aboriginal.

Finally, that there was a sort of dishonest decision to identify as Aboriginal, self- interested decision to identify as Aboriginal in order to receive benefits. And those three negative imputations were thought to be offensive not just to the nine people here but to the broader group of Aboriginal people.

The manner in which the articles were written was offensive and contained “errors of fact, distortions of the truth and inflammatory and provocative language”.

The manner in which the articles were written was offensive and contained “errors of fact, distortions of the truth and inflammatory and provocative language”. Judge took into account the hurt and insult involved with the publication of the articles and found that the offensive conduct was “reasonably likely to have an intimidatory effect on Aboriginal people and in particular young Aboriginal persons”. The judge noted that it was “not unlawful for a publication to deal with racial identification” but the manner in which the subject was dealt with must be reasonable and in good faith. He also emphasised that “people should be free to fully identify with their race without fear of public disdain or loss of esteem for so identifying”. The judge noted that it was “not unlawful for a publication to deal with racial identification” but the manner in which the subject was dealt with must be reasonable and in good faith. He also emphasised that “people should be free to fully identify with their race without fear of public disdain or loss of esteem for so identifying”. “The Court recognised that you can have a debate about racial identity but you must conduct the debate in an appropriate way. There is a balance between freedom of expression and freedom of identity. “The Court recognised that you can have a debate about racial identity but you must conduct the debate in an appropriate way. There is a balance between freedom of expression and freedom of identity. “The court accepted arguments that Aboriginal identity is not „chosen ‟, and not reserved for people with darker skin colour. People do not have the right to offend, insult, humiliate. and intimidate Aboriginal persons who don't fit their pre-conceived notions of what an Aboriginal person should look like.” “The court accepted arguments that Aboriginal identity is not „chosen ‟, and not reserved for people with darker skin colour. People do not have the right to offend, insult, humiliate. and intimidate Aboriginal persons who don't fit their pre-conceived notions of what an Aboriginal person should look like.” Justice Bromberg said the nine individuals who gave evidence in the case had identified themselves as Aboriginal since childhood. He said: “None of them “chose” to be Aboriginal and that none have used their Aboriginal identity inappropriately to advance their careers.” Justice Bromberg said the nine individuals who gave evidence in the case had identified themselves as Aboriginal since childhood. He said: “None of them “chose” to be Aboriginal and that none have used their Aboriginal identity inappropriately to advance their careers.”

16. Vindication of Aboriginality, but no Compensation? ‘The evidence given by Dr Atkinson was not contested and I have no reason to not accept it as truthful. In particular, I find that by reason of Dr Atkinson having been raised as an Aboriginal person, he has and does genuinely self-identify as Aboriginal. He has Aboriginal ancestry and communal recognition as an Aboriginal person. He is an Aboriginal person and entitled to regard himself as an Aboriginal person within the conventional understanding of that description. He did not consciously choose to be Aboriginal or improperly used his Aboriginal identity to advance his career. He is a highly respected and committed member of his Aboriginal community and is entitled to regard his achievements as well deserved rather than opportunistically obtained. I accept that he feels offended, humiliated and insulted by the Articles or parts thereof in the manner outlined by his evidence’ (Para 105 of full judgement) (note other two articles were not included in the evidence) From: Eatock v Bolt [2011] FCA 1103 (28 September 2011).mht

17. Outcome of Case Very pleased with the outcome and the findings of the Federal Court in the Bolt Case. Free speech has nothing to fear from this Judgement. Justice Bromberg found that the case was not about free speech but there is a right and a wrong way to go about exercising the value of free speech. That is, It cant be done by not using factual evidence to back up your arguments.’. It cant be done by ‘distorting the truth’ about matters of public importance and it defiantly cant be done by using ‘inflammatory and provocative language’ to make personal attacks on individuals or by using value judgments to make false claims about people’s identity and cultural background.

We’re pleased not just for us but for our families and the next generation coming through who have been reared in an environment in which they have been taught to be proud of their Aboriginality and to use this to walk tall wherever they may choose to go in life.
