I'll be at the Yabun Survival Day Concert down at Redfern Park next Wednesday 26 January. I strongly suggest all Sydney siders attend, it should be an awesome day, drug and alchohol free, so bring the kids too.

I lived in Redfern for a while back last year and it's astounding for one lone inner-city suburb to cop so much unnecessary flack. It is the only area I've lived in in Sydney that felt like it had any character. The local residents actually looked you in the eye and said hello, the girl at the local charcoal chicken shop remembered my name AND my order (large chicken and large chips with extra chicken salt thanks) and I never, at any time, felt unsafe.

So come along to Yabun and celebrate the survival of Indigenous Australians and celebrate the suburb of Redfern.
