32 years ago today, The Mabo case was decided.
While First Peoples have always known terra nullius was a myth, Mabo was the one that got the Government to reluctantly recognise that.
Mabo is a giant of the land rights movement, he is one of the many whose shoulders we stand.

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Victorians are unacceptably overrepresented in homelessness statistics. It's well agreed that self-determination is the key to ending this devastating harm. Now it's time to make it happen.
