Support our fight against Adani: We are the Wangan and Jagalingou Tribal Warriors — the original sovereign people of a vast area of unceded land in the Galilee Basin in central-western Queensland. We are acting to protect our land and water from Adani’s Carmichael Coal Mine that interferes with our ancient law and custom. We are tribal warriors and we are #StandingOurGround.

Right now Adani are destroying our culture and country. Soon they’ll start draining the water table and digging their mine. That’s going to drain the life out of our country and kill our dreaming. Adani have given us no choice but to intervene to protect our land, water and culture. This eviction notice marks the start of a new phase of our resistance to Adani’s destruction. We’re calling this new campaign Standing our Ground, because we intend to stand our ground to defend our rights as First Nations people. Follow our new campaign on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram and check out the Solidarity Guide to find out how you can support us to Stand our Ground against Adani’s destruction of our ancestral land and waters.
