  • The Gunditjmara Land Justice Story Jessica K Weir
    The legal outcomes the Gunditjmara achieved in the 1980s are often overlooked in the history of land rights and native title in Australia. The High Court Onus v Alcoa case and the subsequent settlement negotiated with the State of Victoria, sit alongside other well known bench marks in our land rights history, including the Gurindji strike (also known as the Wave Hill Walk-Off) and land claim that led to the development of land rights legislation in the Northern Territory. This publication links the experiences in the 1980s with the Gunditjmara’s present day recognition of native title, and considers the possibilities and limitations of native title within the broader context of land justice.

  • Kimberley Land Council Submission to the Australian Law Reform Commission Inquiry Into the Native Title Act: Issues Paper 45 General Comment
    Kimberley Land Council Submission to the Australian Law Reform Commission Inquiry into the Native Title Act: Issues Paper 45 General comment The Kimberley Land Council (KLC) is the native title representative body for the Kimberley region of Western Australia. The KLC is also a grass roots community organisation which has represented the interests of Kimberley Traditional Owners in their struggle for recognition of ownership of country since 1978. The KLC is cognisant of the limitations of the Native Title Act (NTA) in addressing the wrongs of the past and providing a clear pathway to economic, social and cultural independence for Aboriginal people in the future. The KLC strongly supports the review of the NTA by the Australian Law Reform Commission (Review) in the hope that it might provide an increased capacity for the NTA to address both past wrongs and the future needs and aspirations of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. The dispossession of country which occurred as a result of colonisation has had a profound and long lasting impact on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. Country (land and sea) is centrally important to the cultural, social and familial lives of Aboriginal people, and its dispossession has had profound and continuing intergenerational effects. However, interests in land (and waters) is also a primary economic asset and its dispossession from Traditional Owners has prevented them from enjoying the benefits of its utilisation for economic purposes, and bestowed those benefits on others (in particular, in the Kimberley, pastoral, mining and tourism interests). The role of the NTA is to provide one mechanism for the original dispossession of country to be addressed, albeit imperfectly and subject to competing interests.

  • The Boomerang Effect. the Aboriginal Arts of Australia 19 May - 7 January 2018 Preview 18 May 2017 at 6Pm
    MEG Musée d’ethnographie de Genève Press 4 may 2017 The Boomerang Effect. The Aboriginal Arts of Australia 19 May - 7 January 2018 Preview 18 May 2017 at 6pm White walls, neon writing, clean lines: the MEG’s new exhibition «The Boomerang Effect. The Aboriginal Arts of Australia» welcomes its visitors in a space evocative of a contemporary art gallery. Here the MEG unveils one of its finest collections and reveals the wealth of indigenous Australia's cultural heritage. Visiting this exhibition, we understand how attempts to suppress Aboriginal culture since the 18th century have ended up having the opposite of their desired effect. When James Cook landed in Australia, in 1770, he declared the country to be «no one’s land» (terra nullius), as he recognized no state authority there. This justified the island's colonization and the limitless spoliation of its inhabitants, a medley of peoples who had lived there for 60,000 years, societies which up until today have maintained a visible and invisible link with the land through a vision of the world known as the Dreaming or Dreamtime. These mythological tales recount the creation of the universe as well as the balanced and harmonious relation between all the beings inhabiting it. It is told that, in ancestral times, the Djan’kawu sisters peopled the land by naming the beings and places and then lying down near the roots of a pandanus tree to give birth to sacred objects. It is related that the Dätiwuy clan and its land was made by a shark called Mäna.

To work in partnership with the diverse Kimberley language communities To ensure Kimberley languages are passed on to children. The KLRC is the only organisation in Australia focussing solely on Kimberley Aboriginal languages. The Kimberley was, and still is, the one of the most linguistically diverse areas in Australia with at least 421 language groups plus additional dialects identified. The KLRC Directors advocate for the 30 or so languages still spoken. The organisation was established in 1984 by Aboriginal people concerned about the effects of colonisation and the continuing impact of Western society on their spoken languages and cultural knowledge. It is beginning its 26th year of operations with a wealth of experience and resources underpinning its service delivery. The organisation is governed by a Board of 12 Directors accountable to a membership from across the region. The office is based in Halls Creek in the East Kimberley. The KLRC provides a forum for developing language policy to strategically revive and maintain (in other words, continue) the Kimberley Aboriginal languages.
