| ||||||||||||||
| Patrick O’Connor, 27, was born in Dublin, Ireland, and emigrated to Australia with his family in 1989. He attended school in Perth and graduated from University of Western Australia in 2002 with a BA (hons) degree in history. Patrick began reading the World Socialist Web Site in 2000 and joined the Socialist Equality Party in 2003. In 2004 he authored a series of major articles on the WSWS exposing the official lies and cover-up surrounding the death of Aboriginal teenager TJ Hickey, killed in a police chase in Redfern-Waterloo. A staff writer for the World Socialist Web Site since 2006, Patrick has worked as a WSWS correspondent in the UK, the United States and Paris, where he filed reports on the struggle of student youth against the Chirac government’s First Job Contract legislation. Over the past year Patrick has written extensively on the role of Australian imperialism in the South Pacific, opposing the neo-colonial and militarist agenda of the Howard government.
