Our friend, lead actor in the anti-gang violence play "One Hour 2 Live" Jiwe Morris appears in the Sundance Channel's documentary series "Brick City" (executive produced by Forest Whitaker), which re-airs beginning tonight @ 7pm, and the next 4 Tuesdays afterwards. This fascinating series will leave you hooked - it got me within the first 15 minutes.
Acclaimed author of "War of the Bloods in my Veins" (A Street Soldiers March to Redemption), Dashaun "Jiwe" Morris was known on the streets as "Machete" from Newark, NJ. He is a reformed member of the Bloods, and a full-time gang consultant. He seeks to end the cycle of gang violence through Juvenile Intervention work. A sought-after lecturer, Jiwe speaks throughout the United States as a spokesperson for The Stay Strong Foundation sharing his unique experiences and the horrible truth about living a gang lifestyle with kids and parents in an effort to inspire them to make better life decisions. HERE is Jiwe's official website.
Jiwe can be seen as more of a focal point in Season 2, which is filming now. For more on the show visit the official website HERE. In the meantime, here is the critic trailer to this amazing docu-series:
