We’ve got to back one another. We’ve got to be strong and stand up for our people. We’ve got to sit together and we’ve got to work together. Together, we are the Traditional Owners of this country.’’ Joe Brown, KLC Special Adviser Kimberley Land Council Annual Report 2012 I 3 Introduction & overview The Kimberley Land Council was established in 1978 following a dispute between Kimberley Aboriginal people, The Western Australian Government and an International mining company at Noonkanbah. The KLC was set up by Kimberley Aboriginal people as a peak regional community organisation, to secure the rights and interests of Kimberley Traditional Owners in relation to their land and waters and to protect their significant places. The KLC has experienced rapid growth in recent years. While fulfilling our role as a Native Title Representative Body remains the core business of our organisation, we have expanded to include a broad range of programs and activities that help us to achieve the vision of our members. As part of our Native Title Representative Body funding agreement with the Commonwealth Government, the KLC is required to present detailed technical information on its functions in our Annual Report. This report also includes information on other aspects of our organisation which reflects the full diversity of our operations. “Native title is about respect and recognition of Traditional Owners and highlights the strong links Aboriginal people have to their country, culture and law.’’ Tom Birch, KLC Co-Chair 4 I Kimberley Land Council Annual Report 2012 & overview Our Mission, Vision & Values OUR VISION The Kimberley Land Council is a community organisation working for and with Traditional Owners of the Kimberley to get back country, look after country and get control of the future.

  • SOLONEC Shared Lives on Nigena Country
    Shared lives on Nigena country: A joint Biography of Katie and Frank Rodriguez, 1944-1994. Jacinta Solonec 20131828 M.A. Edith Cowan University, 2003., B.A. Edith Cowan University, 1994 This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of The University of Western Australia School of Humanities (Discipline – History) 2015 Abstract On the 8th of December 1946 Katie Fraser and Frank Rodriguez married in the Holy Rosary Catholic Church in Derby, Western Australia. They spent the next forty-eight years together, living in the West Kimberley and making a home for themselves on Nigena country. These are Katie’s ancestral homelands, far from Frank’s birthplace in Galicia, Spain. This thesis offers an investigation into the social history of a West Kimberley couple and their family, a couple the likes of whom are rarely represented in the history books, who arguably typify the historic multiculturalism of the Kimberley community. Katie and Frank were seemingly ordinary people, who like many others at the time were socially and politically marginalised due to Katie being Aboriginal and Frank being a migrant from a non-English speaking background. Moreover in many respects their shared life experiences encapsulate the history of the Kimberley, and the experiences of many of its people who have been marginalised from history. Their lives were shaped by their shared faith and Katie’s family connections to the Catholic mission at Beagle Bay, the different governmental policies which sought to assimilate them into an Australian way of life, as well as their experiences working in the pastoral industry.

  • New Wave - by Paul Myers - the Australian - February 01, 2010
    New wave - by Paul Myers - The Australian - February 01, 2010 Barry Grey, head stockman of Roebuck Plains station near Broome, with his trainees. "It's making a difference," Grey says of the program. "It's presenting opportunities that wouldn't have existed." Photo: Leon Mead Source: The Australian GINA Sebastian and Frederick Cox have never heard of Wave Hill or Vincent Lingiari, the Gurindji elder who led the epic 1966 Aboriginal walk-off from English aristocrat Lord Vestey's Northern Territory cattle station. That momentous event, which changed the human landscape of the northern pastoral industry, occurred in another place and time, far removed from contemporary life and its limited opportunities in remote areas of the far north. But Sebastian, 26, and Cox, 18, are two striking examples of young indigenous people building a new future for themselves on country where the legendary skills of Aboriginal stockmen were forged from the mid- 1800s. Beyond the good intentions of many, and the failure of governments to deliver meaningful careers for young Aborigines, indigenous people are taking it upon themselves to turn back the clock, if only nominally, to a time when station jobs were there for the taking and good stockmanship was second nature to any lithe youngster willing to get in the saddle. Once again young Aborigines are finding a future in their own country. Not that the halcyon days – if that’s what they were – can return. The Wave Hill walk-off, which started as a dispute over pay and conditions and evolved into a campaign for land rights, led to stations being depopulated of their workforce, although to some extent that would have occurred anyway.

  • Looking West: a Guide to Aboriginal Records in Western Australia
    A Guide to Aboriginal Records in Western Australia The Records Taskforce of Western Australia ¨ ARTIST Jeanette Garlett Jeanette is a Nyungar Aboriginal woman. She was removed from her family at a young age and was in Mogumber Mission from 1956 to 1968, where she attended the Mogumber Mission School and Moora Junior High School. Jeanette later moved to Queensland and gained an Associate Diploma of Arts from the Townsville College of TAFE, majoring in screen printing batik. From 1991 to present day, Jeanette has had 10 major exhibitions and has been awarded four commissions Australia-wide. Jeanette was the recipient of the Dick Pascoe Memorial Shield. Bill Hayden was presented with one of her paintings on a Vice Regal tour of Queensland. In 1993 several of her paintings were sent to Iwaki in Japan (sister city of Townsville in Japan). A recent major commission was to create a mural for the City of Armadale (working with Elders and students from the community) to depict the life of Aboriginal Elders from 1950 to 1980. Jeanette is currently commissioned by the Mundaring Arts Centre to work with students from local schools to design and paint bus shelters — the established theme is the four seasons. Through her art, Jeanette assists Aboriginal women involved in domestic and traumatic situations, to express their feelings in order to commence their journey of healing. Jeanette currently lives in Northam with her family and is actively working as an artist and art therapist in that region. Jeanette also lectures at the O’Connor College of TAFE. Her dream is to have her work acknowledged and respected by her peers and the community.

Unlike the Central C her australian pair, Uluru and Kata tjuta, where tourism has been active for over half a century, visitors to the Kimberley have only been arriving in appreciable numbers for barely half that period. Perhaps as a result of near-impossible isolation, harsh climates and the almost complete lack of infrastructure, australia’s north West remained off the tourism radar until adventure cruisers and remote fishing charter operators changed that. the gobsmacking panoramas of Mitchell Falls, raft Point and mystical Montgomery reef could not have been better suited to the big-budget cinematography of Baz luhrmann’s movie. love it or not, the golden-hued ancient landscapes of the Kimberley were presented spectacularly on screen. More recently, however, it’s been the furore over oil and gas exploration highlighting the region, with local tourism businesses fearful that unfettered development will tarnish the unspoilt quality of the iconic Kimberley.
