"...they (the authorities) treat you like a really bad dog...that's how they are. They'll kick you, they'll smash you, because to them you're a writer, not a human - you're just a scum graffiti writer..."
SERECK
International Bomb Squad Western Sydney
A world war is being waged today against Hip Hop-a guerilla war between the Authorities and Youth that is being fought in our public spaces; a cultural war of propaganda, threats, intimidation and violence.
Because of its rebel stance Hip Hop has been forced underground, marginalised by the System, misunderstood by the populace and persecuted by those who hold power.
This is a war correspondent's report from the frontline in the Western
Suburbs of Sydney (Australia), a behind the-scenes view of how Hip Hop
operates, looking at the forces that motivate it and its struggle with a
society that seeks to destroy it.
