SBS marks NAIDOC Week

SBS celebrates NAIDOC week (1-8 July) with Black Tracks: A Living Black NAIDOC Week Music Special.

Hosted by Karla Grant, this  90-minute music special features Jessica Mauboy, Christine Anu, Casey Donovan and more.

Over the last year since incorporating a musical act into the program each week, Living Black has become a platform on which to showcase the rich Indigenous talent in this country. This music special is a celebration of that music and it will feature a mix of both up and coming fresh new faces and established performers. These include Jessica Mauboy, Christine Anu, Casey Donovan, Microwave Jenny and many more including emerging artists such as Nellie Dargin, Nangral, Jess Beck and Yung Warriors.

SBS will also present a host of leading Indigenous programming throughout the week, a screening of the annual National NAIDOC Awards and the launch of a ground-breaking interactive online documentary The Block: Stories from a Meeting Place. The Block can be accessed online at www.sbs.com.au/theblock from 1 July.

In addition to a week of leading Indigenous programming, SBS will commemorate NAIDOC Week with a dedicated website that will contain special features, including screening highlights and On Demand offerings at sbs.com.au/naidoc

Sunday 8 July at 3:30pm on SBS ONE.
