[Mason] The classic novelist, Sir Isaac Fleming

wrote in his war novel, East Of Heaven.

"In times of war and strife,

"a man is often ushered to the break.

"It is at the break where a man discovers his strength

and finds his valor."

Sir Fleming called the Battle of Cologne

the worst day of his young life.

At that moment when death surround him,

at his broken place, he found the contrivance to live.

I have so often, because of my current occupation and condition

been ushered to the front seat of such times and places

where the broken reside.

Perhaps none of those places has been as tragic as that of a man

or a woman who happens to be a mother or father

when they lose their home, to be kicked out on the curb.

Not a proverbial one, but an actual curb hugging

one of the streets that flow through South Winslow

is perhaps the most broken of all places.

Today, in our modest city,

36 people have a prescheduled appointment with such a fate.

Words cannot do justice to the misfortune we call eviction.

* And it's past the legal limit to believe *

[Finley] You got a cause of death?

Asphyxiation.

* It's crazy when you pass me on the street *

What are these markings on her arms?

See them on the legs, too?

Yeah. Dog bites.

[Finley] Dog bites?

-Yeah. -Do you know what kind of dog?

Right now we're thinking a pit bull.

[music]

* I'm on the peak *

* Down *

* Facing my defeat *

Mama?

I can get a job.

No.

I can-- I can get money.

[Renee'] Tyron, you stay in school.

I'm gonna figure it out.

[music]

* And I'm fallin' for my favorite way to grieve *

* And it's past the legal limit to believe *

* But still it's crazy when you pass me on the street *

Hey, Big.

He gonna make it?

Aight.

That nigga died?

[Big] Not yet.

I ain't never seen no shit like that before.

What he do?

[Big] Brought too much attention to the hood.

Emp don't play that shit.

* When you pass me on the street *

* And I'm falling *

-What you lookin' for? -[Man] Just get in.

What you lookin' for, daddy?

Get in.

I'm good.

[dramatic music]

Wake up! This is the end of the line, young buck.
