Creative Nonfiction

Fifteen lives. Fifteen crossings. Fifteen answers to the question: what does it cost to move? *Voices in Motion * is a collection of interconnected stories drawn from a decade of interviews with actual migrants — an Ecuadorian night janitor who studies law between shifts; a Colombian engineer in Silicon Valley whose visa is a leash; a DACA recipient who has never seen the country she is supposed to belong to; a trafficking survivor who rebuilt herself in the language of her captors; a man who died in ICE detention, told through the eyes of those who loved him. Each story stands alone.

Many famed music producers are known for a particular sound that has its day and then ages out. Rick Rubin is known for something else: creating a space where artists of all different genres and traditions can home in on who they really are and what they really offer.

The purpose of these talks is to bring about a psychological change in you, the individual. Humanity, understood psychologically, is an infinite series of levels of awareness and you, individually, are what you are according to where you are in the series. Consciousness is the only reality, and where you are conscious of being psychologically, determines the circumstances of your life. The ancients knew this great truth, but our modern teachers have yet to discover it.
