Description

What does "home" truly mean? In particular for African American families and individuals that have so often faced displacement from physical homes, driven by economic forces, for generations? In this episode of The Light Ahead, we venture to Brooklyn in the year 2030, where a young woman convinces her grandmother to visit her childhood neighborhood, a neighborhood that has changed drastically since their family was forced to move out decades before. What they find there changes their idea of home forever and is beyond anything they ever dared to dream. Tune in to hear this poignant story exploring what it could look like to take reparative steps in our neighborhoods and communities toward reckoning with injustices of our past.

The Light Ahead is a podcast that uses speculative fiction to explore the question, “What would 2030 look like if the USA had an economy that truly worked and cared for everyone?” Through eight stories, co-created by next-economy leaders and Hollywood screenwriters, listeners are invited to expand their economic imaginations by dreaming into a tantalizing array of possible, more beloved, futures.
