If you're under 30 and involved in radio you are invited to join a new Facebook group Attractive Young People Make Radio, which is designed to connected young people across Australia so we can take over the country I mean talk and collaborate and stuff.
There will be a thread on the group tomorrow (Wednesday) so we can all introduce ourselves. 7pm EST, 5pm WST, 6.30pm ACST.
The first major student radio project in Australia was at USyd in 1937, but those radio dreams were thwarted by the old people in USyd admin who said they "doubted the students could run so much as a PA system, let alone a radio station".
History has proven them wrong many times as we have & do run awesome radio stations, and had a crucial role in the creation of the community radio sector in the 70s.
Young people bringing innovation and change and excitement into radio and without us radio would be dead dead dead.
It's clear throughout history that the strength of youth radio has always been UNITY, so I want to put us all in touch and see what we can come up with.
