Today we honour the great man, Eddie Koiki Mabo. 30 yrs ago today, marks the day when the High Court of Australia handed down its decision to overturn the biggest MYTH of this country, Terra Nullius, or "land belonging to no-one". #AlwaysWasAlwaysWillBe #StolenLand 🖤💛❤️👣 https://t.co/9gVTMpbJaL

Maybe, just maybe Australia day should be on Mabo day.

It's Mabo Day! We're celebrating the life and work of Eddie Mabo who fought to disprove terra nullius, leading to the Native Title Act in 1993. We also recognise the anger and devastation of the many people disenfranchised by the native title process and subsequent 10 Point Plan. https://t.co/ScUQ9N0kL4

Today is Mabo Day and the 30th anniversary of @HighCourtofAus's decision to overturn the doctrine of terra nullius. Ruling in favour of Eddie Mabo and his fellow plaintiffs recognised native title rights and interests held by the Meriam people to the Mer, Dauer and Waier Islands. https://t.co/PoDP8XulCb

It was fantastic to celebrate Mabo Day and Reconciliation Week in Kabi Kabi country for the #AIATSISsummit dinner. We are already looking forward to next year's summit on Noongar country. https://t.co/JlIC7BDcSK

Today marks 30 years since the High Court overturned the legal fiction of 'terra nullius’ meaning “land belonging to no-one”. We proudly celebrate this historic day honouring Eddie Mabo and his fight to recognise the legitimacy of Aboriginal Land Rights. https://t.co/1sb5Z3vBFv

Today is the 30th anniversary of Mabo Day. Eddie Koiki Mabo fought for recognition of ownership of his land on Mer Island in the Torres Strait. Our nation is better, stronger, and more whole because of Eddie Mabo. https://t.co/wdOEciAJpv
