The Story of the Yolngu People
Bernard Clark and Alistair Blake share with us the story of the Yolngu people of East Arnhem Land, NT, using Powerpoint to illustrate. The story is based on Bernard’s long friendship with a young Yolngu man, Gatjil Djerrkura. Together they worked with the Yolngu people of East Arnhem Land in their struggle to find justice and control of their own lives. Bernard Clark wrote this story in a book called Larrpan Ga Buduyurr: The Spear and the Cloud.
