Jabiluka: When Aboriginal people in Australia took on a mining company and won

Between 1996 and 1998, the Mirarr people in the Northern Territory of Australia fought plans for a uranium mine on their land. Their struggle included an eight-month blockade of the mine site. 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.

Join us for this talk by Tami Gadir, a member of the International Socialists in Winnipeg and formerly a member of Solidarity in Australia, to discuss what lessons this inspiring victory holds for current struggles in the Canadian state.
