Youth Rock the Block

Joel Beasant, Sydney

21 October 2006

Youth Rock the Block, held in Redfern on October 14, featured young community performers expressing their culture and raising money for a local women and children dance studio. The day included singing in the Indigenous Darug language, original dance pieces, renditions of well-known Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal pop songs and hip-hop.

The event was an initiative of the Aboriginal Housing Company in collaboration with Sydney rock band Andorra, with assistance from Vibe magazine/Deadly Awards founder Gavin Jones and crew. To see a video news story about the day, visit <http://www.reportage.uts.edu.au>.
