A program organized more than 40 years ago by local churches in East Brooklyn and the Industrial Areas Foundation to build a community within a destitute neighborhood – where no one would wish to drive through, let alone live – has since enabled first-time homeowners to build equity, and hope for the future, as the homes have become, literally, the foundation of community development.

The passing of Queen Elizabeth II after 70 years on the throne has meant that not just a monarch is gone at the age of 96, but decades of stability and continuity are suddenly gone, too.

In their new Apple TV+ docuseries, "Gutsy," the former Secretary of State and her daughter interview skilled and determined women from all walks of life - while also sharing their own personal experiences - that, combined, reflect the power of women who persist.
