The Tea Makers

Did you catch the season premier of The Fifth Estate on Wed?

It was called Lost in the Struggle, and I was really blown away by how unflinchingly raw it was, telling me a lot about Jane and Finch, an area I was curious to know more about, filmed by people who live there. It’s some real “reality tv.”

If you have any interest in the subject whatsoever I guarantee you will find this fascinating. Gather the family ’round Newsworld this weekend at one of these times:

Friday October 6 at 10pm ET
Saturday October 7 at 4am ET & 3pm ET
Sunday October 8 at 5pm ET
Monday October 9 at 5pm ET
Tuesday October 10 at 4am ET

or just download it.

And then go to Chuckie’s myspace, listen to some of his music, and read what his readers say about the doc made on his life and times:

dunnoe chukie i seen dat documentary shyt on tv 2 day seen show dem niggaz n bitches da real shyt bout da strugllez n jane n finch seen keep doin yah thang homez

For real. Happy Thanksgiving!
