30 years ago today the Australian High Court ruled that Australia was NOT terra nullius. The Court finally declared the truth - that Aboriginal and Torres Straight Islander people had a unique and strong connection to the land - a connection existing thousands of years before any British colonisers arrived. Today is Mabo Day, marking a close to Reconciliation Week. Today we remember Mabo and his success in challenging the government to speak the truth about Australian land.

There’s still time to make a pledge on .au by commenting on their post. For example, you might pledge to learn more about the Mabo case.
