Today, 3 June, is the 30^th Anniversary of Mabo Day, the day when Australian law changed, when the rights of Indigenous Australians changed and when Australia itself changed.

This day marks the end of Reconciliation Week when Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians remember past wrongs and celebrate the righting of those wrongs.

(Of course, Reconciliation Week begins each year on 27 May, the day in 1967 when ‘more than 90% of Australians voted ‘yes’ in a referendum to reduce inequality for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.’)

Over the years, Indigenous.gov.au has published stories and announcements about Mabo Day, its key actors and the changes wrought by the historic High Court decision in Mabo v Queensland (No 2).

We invite you to read or re-read those items especially the prominent stories listed below.
