Youth Expressions skit at the Keep A Child Alive Student AIDS Summit (2)

I watched this very emotional skit by the theatre group Youth Expressions who act out HIV & AIDS scenarios through spoken word and hip hop. (This skit was part of the Keep A Child Alive Student AIDS Summit in New York City, USA, in November 2008.)

"Do It Right" hip-hop track

This hip-hop track was written, produced, and performed by a group of Canadian Aboriginal youth (Trippin, Elisha, Teja, Sophie, and Ric Notes) at the Taking Action Workshop in Toronto, Canada, in October 2008. Interestingly, this track deals with issues surrounding HIV and AIDS without mentioning either term once.

Taking Action is a research project that is working with six Aboriginal communities in different parts of Canada for the next three years to develop youth leadership and involve communities in HIV prevention through the arts.
