Today marks the 34th anniversary of Mabo Day and the final day of National Reconciliation Week 2026. Today we recognise the landmark 1992 High Court decision that affirmed Native Title and overturned the myth of terra nullius. We honour the legacy of Uncle Eddie Koiki Mabo and acknowledge the people of Zenadth Kes (Torres Strait) living across Australia. We stand arm in arm with the people of Zenadth Kes, today and every day; including Murawin employees, partners, clients and community! Together, First Nations Peoples are stronger! Let's go for truth, justice, and freedom!
We have curated excerpts of short films publicly available through the National Film and Sound Archive of Australia and a couple of beautiful songs to keep you inspired throughout the day. Please be aware these films include First Nations people who have passed on.
