Mitrovica, Kosovo is divided physically by a bridge separating the Serbian north from the Albanian south. It is also separated socially. Musicians Without Borders created The Mitrovica Rock School to use the unifying power of music to bring people of different backgrounds together. The school initially met in neighboring Macedonia, but there are now branches of the school set up on both sides of the bridge. The school’s goal is to get away from defining students by their ethnicity and focus on the other aspects of who they are, such as being a drummer or enjoying a certain style of music. Take a look at the power of rock and roll in action.
