Episode: Jabiluka: When Aboriginal people took on a mining company and won
Description: Between 1996 and 1998, the Mirarr people in the Northern Territory fought plans for a uranium mine on their land in Kakadu. It included an eight-month blockade of the mine site. Tami Gadir argues that the mine was eventually stopped due to strong grassroots campaign made up of traditional Mirarr owners, Aboriginal activists and tens of thousands of people in Australia, including environmentalists, unionists and students.Â
