Mabo Day commemorates Torres Strait Islander Eddie Koiki Mabo and his role in overturning the “terra nullius” declaration - which claimed that Australia was once land belonging to no-one. For two centuries, the British and then white Australians operated under a fallacy, that somehow Aboriginal people did not exist or have land rights before the first settlers arrived in 1788. Kulasegaram Sanchayan presents the man who changed that - Eddie Koiki Mabo.
