Behind every strong woman are the women who raised her.

‘A powerful family saga’ OBSERVER

‘Heartbreaking, hopeful, and resilient… a masterpiece’ TARA M. STRINGFELLOW, author of Memphis 

 Some are bound by the blood in their veins, some are bound by the love they have to give: this is a story of mothers and daughters, secrets and history.

A birth mother
Raised by her beloved grandmother in tension-filled, segregated Virginia, Grace is barely a teenager when she is shipped up North to live with her formidably ambitious aunt. She falls in love and ends up pregnant: then, in the ultimate act of betrayal, her baby girl is taken from her and given up for adoption.

An adoptive mother
Lolo has never had it easy, her life riddled with pain and loss. Her brightest dream is to be married and to have a family of her own, and she will tell lies and keep secrets to obtain it. When those secrets start to spill out, Lolo is willing to do whatever it takes to keep her dream intact and those she loves together.

The daughter to both
When Lolo’s headstrong daughter Rae discovers that she is adopted, and that she is about to become a parent herself, she knows that there is an important reckoning that must be faced about herself and her two mothers.

Spanning decades, from the Great Migration and the civil unrest of the ‘60s to the cultural shift of the early 2000s, Denene Millner’s intimate yet epic modern masterpiece is poetic, powerful, filled with joy and deep love: a hymn to Black motherhood.

In this episode of American Dreams, Alan Olsen interviews Gary Klaben, author and financial advisor, about the concept of multi-generational living and his new book on the topic. Gary shares his personal journey and the insights that led him to establish a 67-acre estate where five families live together, embracing a lifestyle that fosters stronger family bonds and long-term financial stability. He discusses the challenges and benefits of multi-generational living, the four-stage process for successfully creating such an environment, and the importance of thinking beyond immediate needs to consider the impact on future generations. This thought-provoking conversation is essential listening for anyone interested in preserving family wealth and creating a legacy that lasts.

The Art of Multi-Generational Living with Gary Klaben Podcast

This is an inspiring piece we made in 2 hours on 5.04.25 with players from London Symphony Orchestra and our own community musicians. We had around 30 people in the circle including 13 young people, and members of our social-prescribing community group. Ages in the room were from 7-70!

The piece was inspired by Shostakovich, who was known for secretly putting messages in his music (e.g. his own name) in musical form. 

We asked the group what messages they would like to say to the world, and the two that were used to create the music were 'save the wildlife' and 'wash away bad gasses'. You can also hear everyone improvising their name rhythmically in part of the piece.

See if you can hear these messages in the music!
