Thank you, Eddie Mabo
Today is the anniversary of the Mabo decision, in which the High Court of Australia decided that terra nullius should never have been applied to Australia. Eddie had fought a long, exhausting and divisive battle for his people in the Torres Strait and for indigenous people throughout Australia. This decision meant that native title was recognised under law -- title that now encompasses more than 1 million square kilometres of land. Eddie did not live to see this decision.

Things I do not enjoy doing: talking about celebrities talking about celebrities' bums watching celebrities, or people who desperately wish to convince the world that they ARE celebrities, eat spiders and use nettles for toilet paper while being filmed for a TV show that networks should have been too ashamed to make randomly adding people on social media adding people who then decide I'd be a good convert for their church looking at photographs of other people's food explaini
