IN CONVERSATION WITH DEM MOB – INSPIRING SOMETHING DIFFERENT – THE FIRST PITJANTJATJARA RAP

April 11 @ 7:00 pm - 7:30 pm

‘Still No Justice’ is more than just a song—it’s a powerful statement addressing the Black Lives Matter movement, Aboriginal deaths in custody, and racism. The song, inspired by the 2019 shooting death of Kumanjayi Walker, urges Aboriginal youth in Alice Springs to steer away from crime and grow into cultural leaders. Dem Mob have made a significant impact. They work across the APY Lands, using music to help students improve their literacy skills, rapping in both English and Pitjantjatjara languages. With family ties to iconic Aboriginal bands like No Fixed Address, Yothu Yindi, and Coloured Stone, their influence runs deep.
