How Uluru got its name back

from The Daily Aus · host The Daily Aus

This week marks 40 years since a major milestone in Aboriginal land rights history. In October 1985, the Federal Government returned the title deeds of Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park to the traditional custodians of the region, the Anangu people.  Four decades on, celebrations began in London last week, where King Charles met with First Nations leaders ahead of more anniversary plans on country this week.  Today we'll take you through what led to the handback, its significance, and where First Nations issues stand four decades on.
