Uncle Bob Randall is a member of the Yankunytjatjara people and one of the listed traditional owners of Uluru (Ayers Rock).
Born in the Central Desert region of the Northern Territory in 1934, Uncle Bob was among the “Stolen Generation,” an est. 100,000 children who were forcibly removed from their homes by the Australian Government.
