text: # Our Home, Our Land
  
  Our Home, Our Land is a compilation album released in Australia by CAAMA in 1995. It was released to celebrate the victory in the Mabo case. It focused on the importance of land to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander beliefs. It was nominated for a 1996 ARIA Award for Best Indigenous Release.
  
  The CDs featured a mix of new and established artists. The title track was commissioned for this release. Previously recorded tracks were licensed from well known artist and some new tracks were recorded for this album. The new tracks were winners of a song contest for artist that had not been previously recorded.
  
  The album received positive reviews. Jarrod Watt writing in the Age noted that it was "a pretty decent snapshot of the directions indigenous musicians are taking off to while keeping the traditions of the past." Sunday Age's Larry Schwartz states " It is a rich mix of talent that will delight enthusiasts."
  
  In 2000 an illustrated book by Stephen Lalor called Our home, our land : contemporary Aboriginal music education kit was released as a resource about the cds for secondary schools.
