ABSTRACT

Kaldowinyeri is a concept, which is difficult to translate, but in part it means 'a long time ago, the beginning of time itself'; the word originates in the languages of the First Nations Peoples of the Lakes and Coorong region in the south-east of South Australia. First Nations laws are still in conflict with the imposed colonial legal system; in the past our old people struggled and many of our people today continue to struggle against colonialism. Colonialism seeks the subjugation of our First Nations identity and one resist it. Colonial legal systems, both international and domestic, and their intellectual property laws do not protect law stories. Muldarbi law said that the Australian continent was clothed with a blanket terra nullius of the land, law and people. Muldarbi colonialism has survived for centuries, spreading across continents, always finding contemporary forms in which to embody itself.
