Africadia: When The East Is In The House

Black Tea

Dalton and Mel speak to two people involved in CBC legal drama Diggstown: star of the series, Vinessa Antoine and journalist, playwright, film and theatre director, Juanita Peters–who is directing an episode of the show this season. They talk about how the show raises Black Canadian issues, its importance in the Canadian TV landscape, Nova Scotia, and even Diddy.

Then Dalton has some hopeful words for the Fugees tour.
