'Fifty years after Vincent Lingiari led about 200 Aboriginal workers and their families off Wave Hill Station, a Darwin-based historian, Charlie Ward, has published a book, A Handful of Sand , which tells the story of the Gurindji people’s epic struggle to secure a new future, which laid the foundation for land rights in the Northern Territory.'
