For these people, their land sustains life: the land feeds and heals. Traditional bush tucker has fed generations, the bush supplies medicines, and these traditional homelands hold sacred sites and are the focus of ceremonial rites and dreaming stories. Steve McCormack and his family live 4km from one of the proposed sites on the Tanami Highway, 25km north-west of Alice Springs. They worry about the effect of the toxic waste on their water supply and bush tucker, as well as their own health. At Engawala homestead, 125km north-east of Alice Springs, and 12km from another proposed site, traditional owners Herbie Bloom and Kenny Tilmouth talk about their reliance on bush food. They stress the urgency for everyone to speak up and protest. Written by Official Synopsis See less
