"Bininj culture really strong. You have to look after country. For your grandfather country, like mother country, take care." Yvonne Margarula, Mirarr Senior Traditional Owner.

In 1977, Aboriginal opposition to the Ranger Uranium proposal was overridden with the words "their opposition shall not be allowed to prevail". Bininj people were told that the rest of Australia wanted uranium mining in the Alligator Rivers Region, within what would become Kakadu National Park. Almost three decades later, the voices of Mirarr continue to be ignored or marginalised by the mining industry and all levels of government.
