Eddie mabo was the first black man to win in the courtsand managed to make the Terra Nullius (no mans land) belong to Torres strait islanders.
Eddie Mabo campaigned for Indigenous land rights. He was involved in a landmark case which overturned the long held view that Australia was empty when Europeans arrived called terra nullius and awarded Aboriginals right to the land, this was called native title.
Mabo (properly cited Mabo [no2] 175 CLR 1) related to the concept of native title. This dispute put in question the validity of the use of 'Terra Nullius' as a means of establishing English law under the doctrine of reception. It was found that the land did belong to the aborigines, and hence should have been conquered rather than settled by the first fleet.
