The NUCLEAR-FREE FUTURE AWARDS
Kevin Buzzacott, Arabunna Nation/Australia
Category Resistance – 2001
In the language of whites, it is civil courage, for him as an aboriginal simply a duty. He will never stop fighting against uranium mining in the land of his people, the Arabunna, even though he has been repeatedly arrested and imprisoned for it. On June 10, he embarks on a three-month, three-thousand-kilometre peace march along the ancient Aboriginal songlines to Sydney.
