Channel 10 has refused to comment after a damning video of Waleed Aly's interview with former Collingwood defender Heritier Lumumba resurfaced, which was then mysteriously removed. Footage of the controversial 2017 interview resurfaced last week after a bombshell report was released, finding Collingwood guilty of fostering "systemic racism". The report was instigated after Lumumba made claims about enduring a "culture of racist jokes" and being nicknamed "Chimp" while playing for the Magpies between 2005-2014. Aly interviewed Lumumba in 2017 for an episode of Channel 10 show The Project, during which he discussed the player's alleged nickname, with viewers saying he appeared to cast doubt on the ex-player's claims.
Waleed Aly in 2017 grilled Lumumba over his allegations he was the butt of 'racist jokes', including the nickname 'chimp', during his 10-year stint with Collingwood from 2005 to 2014.
Mr Lumumba said it was an example of a deeper problem Australia has with truth-telling. “I can't help but just see that the Collingwood Football Club is really a microcosm of the greater Australian narrative, which is the fact that there's an unpreparedness or inability or lack of desire to reconcile with its checkered, brutal past and that it has inflicted severe pain on individuals and communities and families," he told NITV News on Tuesday. ‘Standing on the right side of history’ Mr Lumumba has repeatedly called out the Collingwood Football Club for dismissing his complaints of racial abuse and discrimination experienced when he was a player at the club between 2005 and 2014.
Former Collingwood FC player, Heritier Lumumba, has described watching a press conference of club leaders responding to an unofficially released report into culture inside the organisation as, 'painful'. Mr Lumumba called out comments made on Monday by the club's president, Eddie McGuire, in response to the 'Do Better' report, an independent review commissioned by Collingwood FC into its responses to incidents of racism and cultural safety in the workplace. Going on the offensive in response to the contents of the report being made public, Mr McGuire described the revelations as "a proud day". The report, led by UTS Jumbunna Institute's Larissa Behrendt, details a 'toxic culture' within the club and the presence of systemic racism.
