'2022 marks 30 years since Torres Strait Islander, Eddie Koiki Mabo, and a group of four Meriam people won in a case against the State of Queensland, for land they knew was traditionally theirs. The fight for Mer, in the Eastern Island group of the Torres Strait, would take a decade and end up dispelling any notion that Australia was ‘terra nullius’ before British colonisation.
'Hi, I’m Eddie is a six-part series commissioned by the State Library of Queensland which introduces you to the man behind the headlines. Host Rhianna Patrick brings you on a journey to get to know Eddie Mabo and the case to understand the legacy he left behind.'
