Cathy Freeman
I watched Cathy Freeman win gold at the Sydney Olympics. That moment still inspires me today,
2020
The above picture is a portrait of Cathy Freeman who is an athlete winning gold in
Sydney. The country of Gadigal was treated as the home of Australia’s early civil rights actions.
This included the 1938 Day of Mourning conference and protest. The displayed place in the
above picture reminded the Aboriginal Australia which white Australia for which particular
considerations to media had largely controlled the national narrative which was not considered
fair or honest. The given image shows the evidence that was made by Freeman after winning
gold in 400m in Canada in the 1994 commonwealth games. The provided athlete was shredded
in the controversy due to which status of an athletic was also sometimes denied. The respective
individual athlete was born black which makes her born political also although it was never
aimed or desired by the respective individual.
The image shows the honour of carrying the Aboriginal flag after winning the gold in the
400m in Canada for the year 1994. The picture shows the strength of connection and pride for

Adam Goodes
Adam Goodes rejects AFL’s Australian Football Hall of Fame offer, 2021
The above image shows the portrait of Adam Roy who is a former professional
Australian rules footballer who had played for the Sydney Swans in the Australian Football
League. The respective baller was one of the most famous individuals in his time, however,
faced constant booing from the crowd and a lack of support from the league which also led to his
early retirement from the game in 2015.
In the year 2013, Goodes called out a teenage Collingwood supporter after she called him
an “ape” during a match at the MCG. The respective baller became the target of the audience and
was constantly being abused which got worsened till the day of his final season as a player.

a sense of pain behind the smile on the face of the baller who was being commented on physical
appearance. However, an apology letter was being issued by the league which was four years
after his retirement. The letter was about apologising to Adam with respect to their failure to call
