We are proud to present to you our commissioned piece by Sam Weiss, Deine Mami.

Deine Mami is a poem written by Sam’s great grandmother to his grandmother – a story shared about a mother’s love for her daughter, about the state of the world in pre-war Germany, and a dream for her child that she should have a better life. The story of so many others who just want their children to dream.
