North Richmond resident fires back at ‘extremely insulting’ slur from academic
A North Richmond resident has fired back at a University of Melbourne academic after she called residents opposed to the supervised drug injecting facility a “privileged, noisy minority”.
North Richmond resident Sharon Neven told Tom Elliott she was “extremely insulted” by the comment from social historian Professor Janet McCalman.
“Just because you call yourself a historian, it doesn’t make you entitled to make stuff up, or pick and choose facts,” she said.
