Mabo Day Concert poster with 4 dancing figures

At #Mabo Day concert in Fed Square this evening. I never realised what a beautiful language #Auslan could be until I saw the way the interpreters performed their interpretations with Torres Strait Islander singers.

The High Court of Australia's grand interior, filled with an air of solemn anticipation. Judges in their robes stand poised to deliver the verdict, while a diverse audience of legal professionals, Indigenous representatives, and media watches intently. The scene captures the gravity and historical significance of the moment.

On June 3, 1992, the High Court of Australia's Mabo decision overturned terra nullius, recognizing Indigenous land rights, a landmark for justice. #Mabo

It's the constitution, it's the vibe: Explaining the Yunupingu High Court decision The Yunupingu case has delivered the most significant native title decision since Mabo. We clarify what it means.

The High Court has decided in favor of the #Gumatj people in one of the highest-profile native title cases since #Mabo . "opening the door" to almost 70 years of compensation claims for #NativeTitle holders in the Northern Territory, #Australia .
