HERITIER Lumumba has thrown another dagger at Collingwood, accusing his former club of neglecting his racism concerns via a Facebook post.

An SBS documentary will air on August 27 where the 2010 premiership player criticises the Magpies as being a “boys club for racist and sexist jokes” in addition to lamenting his nickname “Chimp” while playing there.

Teasers for the documentary have circulated in recent days, but on Thursday Lumumba took to social media to air further concerns regarding his treatment at Collingwood.

He was also critical of the AFL and AFLPA and quoted Leon Davis in his post.

Finals Week 1

“It is disappointing that so far Collingwood have chosen to minimise and dismiss my experiences,” Lumumba wrote.

“I’m further disappointed, but not entirely surprised, that the AFL and AFL Players Association have made no comment whatsoever on the issues I have raised.

“The nickname ‘Chimp’ was used during my time at Collingwood Football Club as just one of countless examples of institutionalised racism within the club.

“The systematic nature of racism is evident in the operation of the Recruitment and List Management departments of football clubs, the management of players by agents, the AFL’s failure to protect its highest profile Aboriginal player, Adam Goodes, from ongoing racism that effectively ended his career, the AFL and Collingwood’s failure to sanction or penalise Eddie McGuire following his comments comparing Adam Goodes to an ape.”

Lumumba proceeded to suggest that former players such as Joel Wilkinson have been “threatened and silenced” following racist experiences, while Davis was quoted as sharing the same sentiment as Lumumba.

“I also recently spoke to Leon Davis, who said “Your experiences of racism at Collingwood were a continuation of my own experiences at the club. I stand side by side with you’,” Lumumba wrote.

The nickname ‘Chimp’, that was used during my time at the Collingwood Football Club is just one of countless examples of institutionalised racism within the AFL.

The systematic nature of racism in the AFL is evident in the operation of Recruitment and List Management departments of football clubs; the management of players by agents; the AFL’s failure to protect its highest profile Aboriginal player, Adam Goodes, from ongoing racism that effectively ended his career; the AFL and Collingwood Football Club’s failure to sanction or penalise Eddie McGuire following his comments comparing Adam Goodes to an ape.

Furthermore, players like Joel Wilkinson, who have been direct victims of racism, have been threatened and silenced when their experience disrupts the AFL’s comfortable multicultural narrative, along with having their recruitment and careers jeopardised for speaking out.

It is disappointing that so far the Collingwood Football Club have chosen to minimise and dismiss my experiences. I’m further disappointed, but not entirely surprised, that the AFL and the AFL Players’ Association have made no comment whatsoever about the issues I have raised.

I am grateful to the players and former teammates who have stood by me and confirmed my story like Shae McNamara.

I also recently spoke to Leon Davis, who said “Your experiences of racism at Collingwood were a continuation of my own experiences at the club. I stand side by side with you.”
