'Martu want their own home': A visionary takes his people back to country (WATCH)

For 60 years, this Martu elder has led his people away from towns and back on to country - dry country - because he understands how the non-Aboriginal world works, and why it often does not work at all for his people.
Muuki Taylor was born at a waterhole called Wayinkurangu in the Percival Lakes region of the Great Sandy Desert. It was around 1945. As a child he repeatedly walked the entire western section of the desert with his family. They travelled in and out of what was later declared Western Australia’s largest national park, Karlamilyi.
In an interview with Inquirer from his home community of Parnngurr, Taylor speaks in his first ­language - Manyjilyjarra - and his words are translated into English by his young relative Curtis Taylor, an accomplished filmmaker, artist and professional interpreter.
