Abstract
The first intimation that a child of Greek descent in Australia is likely
to get about its community’s involvement in politics beyond that internal
to the Greek community is the presence of non-Greek non-Orthodox
“political personalities” at Greek Orthodox Church services on days special
to the Greek ethnos such as 25 March, Greece’s National Day, when
officially Greeks celebrate the first stage of their liberation from centuries
of Ottoman Turkish occupation.
