Mithaka Country is 55,425 square kilometres of beautiful red sand dunes west of Windorah and east of Birdsville, in the heart of Queensland’s Channel Country. The three major rivers that feed Lake Eyre – Cooper Creek, Eyre Creek, and the Diamantina River.
Today, my guest is Trudy Gorringe, a Mithaka woman, who I had the good fortune of meeting, while I was in Windorah travelling around. Trudy and I talked about a range of topics associated with native title and First Nation’s control of traditional lands. You’ll notice quite a bit of background wind and noise. That’s because we did this interview on the sprawling lands of the Mithaka Aboriginal Corporation.
