Youth Rock the Block

Issue 

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>.
