Mami ist gerade 39 geworden. Mit Schrecken blickt sie einer Zukunft entgegen, in der sie ständig gefragt wird, ob sie nicht auch mal zum Yoga für Fortgeschrittene kommen will, und wo auf Partys alle so tun, als hätten sie nach einem Glas Wein schon "ein Schwipschen". Aber Mami hat weder Lust auf einen praktischen Haarschnitt noch darauf, nur noch für ihre Kinder zu leben und auf dem Schulhof rumzustehen, während andere Mütter mit den jüngsten außerlehrplanmäßigen Aktivitäten ihres Nachwuchses angeben.

A city equal parts darkness and hope. A scarred city. An often violent one. But a resilient city, too. That's our Memphis. Like many cities we have a namesake - in Egypt, Men-nefer became Menfe became Memphis, enduring and beautiful, on the banks of the Nile. Centuries later, another continent, another people, another river: Memphis, Tennessee, the soul of the Mississippi Delta, was formed.

Harlem is perhaps the most famous, iconic neighborhood in the United States. A bastion of freedom and the capital of black America, Harlem's 20th-century renaissance changed our arts, culture, and politics forever. But this is only one of the many chapters in a wonderfully rich and varied history. In Harlem, historian Jonathan Gill presents the first complete chronicle of this remarkable place.

These stories were written one a day throughout January 2013. They were originally published on a blog called Gill’s January Stones. In fact, they were published in reverse order. The first one you hear here, When Physics Got Sick, was the last one to be written and originally published on January 31, 2016. Sometimes the stories would come right at the beginning of the day. Sometimes they would take a while longer.

Life was barely manageable after my mom was murdered three years ago. I wasn’t sure what my purpose was anymore. But then on my 21st birthday, I drank a little too much and fell from the roof of my nine-story apartment building. I died. Then...I un-died. Enter Hayden, my really bossy (and hot) guardian angel whose duty is to train me to be the next “Soldier of Light.” I’m pretty sure I’m the wrong person for this job, despite what Hayden thinks. Guess I’m stuck saving the dead.
