This paper is an exploration of some shifts in regional socio-political dynamics brought about by native title litigation between Ngarinyin people and European pastoralist families in the northern Kimberley. Many of the visible signs of violence, mutual antagonism and clear conflicts of interest between the Indigenous and non-Indigenous groups who have co-existed on pastoral leases in the region have often been submerged in the course of everyday interactions between them which seek to highlight shared interests (Redmond 2005; Smith 2002, 2003). The inevitably adversarial process of pursuing native title, however, laid bare many of these conflicts of interest by presenting in the public forum of the Federal Court the moving personal testimonies of those who have lived through an era which arcs across the polarities of initial pastoral settlement (between the two World Wars) and the achievements of Ngarinyin native title holders in the courts (in 2004). Despite the painful revelations produced in court of the underlying power imbalances which have characterised their relationships, both parties are now required to, and indeed often espouse a desire to, continue to co-exist on this same country. Here I attempt to describe and analyse the shaken but persistently preservative nature of some of these relationships.
