A Handful of Sand the story of the Wavehill Walk-off and the
struggle of land rights by the Gurindji people is the first book by
Charlie Ward. We talk about the book and his reflections on the
importance of the struggle for present day Australia. Liz Ross
tells us about the programme for the Union Activism & History
Conference on Oct 15. A programme of historic and present day
struggles with a pinch of theory. Kevin Healy goes through the week
with a satirical brush. Jacob Grech gets out of his tent at the
Close Pine Gap demonstration to give us an update. Dr Michael
Borgas from the CSIRO and a union delegate gives us an idea of what
is happening for workers at the CSIRO.
