Radio Skid Row Invasion Day Special Broadcast
This Thursday 26th January between 10am and midday, Radio Skid Row will be taking a live feed from the National Indigenous Radio Service coverage of the 40th anniversary of the Aboriginal Tent Embassy. The outside broadcast (OB) team is from our community radio cousins at Murri Country (98.9 Brisbane). This is between 10am and midday our time.
Also, in the afternoon, we will be taking a live feed from the Community Radio Network coverage of the same event. The outside broadcast (OB) team is from our community radio cousins at 3CR. This is between 2 and 4pm on the 26th and will be a one-off replacement for Tribal Nation.
This special content is to commemorate Invasion Day (26th January), otherwise known by flag-waving 'patriots' as Australia Day. Australia Day is the anniversary of the landing of Captain Arthur Phillip in 1788 with 11 ships of convicts and military to establish a British colony at Sydney Cove. Many Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people do not regard this as an event to celebrate.
The New Afrika Connexions Website is Live!
Hot on the heels of winning a national award, Radio Skid Row's Afrika Connexions program winning a national community radio award, we are now proud to announce the launch of the Afrika Connexions Story- a website which celebrates the history of the program.
You can check out archives (including a cool 1987 interview with Hugh Masakela), listen to some of the presenters' favorite songs and get to know all things African at Radio Skid Row.
Congratulations to all of the Afrika Connexions team spanning 26 years! Izwe Lethu! i Africa! Visit the Afrika Connexions Story Website.
A daily TV/radio news program, hosted by Amy Goodman and Juan Gonzalez, airing on over 900 stations, pioneering the largest community media collaboration in the United States.
