A group of Wangan and Jagalingou First Nations people have lodged a racial discrimination complaint against the coalminer Adani, alleging the company engaged in a decade-long “pattern of conduct” that included making offensive statements and social media posts.
The complaint to the Australian Human Rights Commission alleges Adani breached the federal Racial Discrimination Act by trying to block them in 2023 from accessing Doongmabulla Springs, a sacred site near the Carmichael coalmine in outback Queensland.
