Year 2/3 - 'Chillin' (Bourke, NSW)

Here’s the WORLD PREMIERE of Bourke’s freshest new rap crew - ‘YEAR 2/3’ with their debut tune CHILLIN’.
The main actor here is the incredible Baakandji creative - Jemmah Knight (OG B-Town Warriors MC) - she’s a role model, community creative, educator and all-round legend Ft. Year 2/3 at St. Ignatius Primary School in Bourke, NSW.
It’s been a big year for DPM. Over the past couple of years we’ve been evolving, re-evaluating our impacts in community and program processes.
In 2023 we’re bringing a new strategy to the table.
‘The Crossroads Project’ acknowledges the need for sustainable, ‘foundation-building’ Indigenous community social impact projects.
Young people already know the way forward, and we’re building systems and projects that empower community-led storytelling, create and support the development of role models and leaders, support existing systems and programs and back young people to lead the change we all need.
Here’s Exhibit A. Jemmah Knight is an old friend of the DPM Team, and with her B-Town Crew (Lorraine Dutton, Dimity Dixon, Melvyn Powell and Braith Kelly) has been involved in the Bourke leg of the Crossroads Project in 2023. Jemmah is working at St Ignatius Primary AND now at Bourke High School as a ‘Community Creative’. She’s learning to make films, spin yarns, be a leader, facilitate creative projects and inspire the next generation to be the change they wish to see in the world.
Massive thanks and congrats to St.ignatius.parish school and big ups Jem, Lor, Swerve, Braith and the Year 2/3 students. Instant classic!
