Juanell's Chair© is a series written for broadcast by the Black Baby Boomer sibling team of Davvie and Vivian Mims. The series comprises 50 richly original stories inspired by Juanell Mims, their 93-year-old living matriarch, mother, protagonist, and blessed title bearer.
Grounded in the iconic Black RONDO neighborhood of St. Paul, Minnesota, Juanell's Chair© is an engaging and dynamic drama that narrates situations from yesteryear reframed through magical realism to showcase Black communities uniting and gaining true constitutional equality in America though a pre-civil rights organization called The Network©.
Through compelling characters and unique storytelling, the series interweaves fact and fantasy, what was, what might have been and what can be.

Launched at Hamline’s Center for Justice Law, ricerootsllc hosted a reading of Juanell’s Chair©, a poignant historical fiction saga about a Black Underground Network as told by a 90-year-old Rondo matriarch. The reviewers wrote:
"We found Juanell’s Chair© a spectacular work with something powerful to say about the past, present, and future of race in our country. We look forward to welcoming back the talented sibling pair Davvie and Vivian Mims to Hamline again come Spring."
Hamline concluded by saying,
"We encourage anyone interested to check out their website at ricerootsllc.com and join them for their next reading at the Walker West Music Academy on January 15th, MLK Day. We extend our sincerest thanks to the Mims and all participants for bringing this project together."
