NAIDOC WEEK TOPIC #2

NAIDOC WEEK TOPIC #2

Blak Creatives + The Power of Representation

 

 

Hey all,

This thread is about how we use art, music, social media, clothes and storytelling to show who we are. We will talk about what it means to control our own image and why it matters that we are seen and heard in our own way.

 

There might be a chance to share some music or art too. Come join the convo. 

 

 

To start us off

Who’s a Blak creative that inspires you and why? Could be someone famous or someone local.

Or if you make art or something cool drop it here and tell us what it means to you. 🎨🎶👇🏽

Hey @ArraDreaming Blak Christmas (NAIDOC week) can bring up some stuff, brother

I know it did a little bit for me this year and I didn't participate as much as I would have liked.

So understand if you feel a bit blah. Although whatever's going down for you could be could be competely unrelated. 

Don't forget about 13 YARN (13 92 76) run by mob for mob, if you want a different space to talk

Or I'm on here right now

@ArraDreaming I don't feel as though you've "taken over the whole place". 

We can chat in Yarning Space in a new thread that's not NAIDOC though
