Week 13 reflection- Media Platforms and Revolt

Below is a link to a Rap News episode on Australia Day. I think the video shows, in artistic poignancy how engaging media platforms are able to be used by anybody to communicate issues, in this case issues stemming from colonialisation and continuing on through globalization and immigration.

The video discusses the 'grand theft auto of Australia' and what it meant for the Traditional Owners and how this recurrent issue plays into an even more culturally diverse and globalized Australia. Please be warned the language is a little obscene at one point.
