Listen to Motus Monologues: Stories from the front lines and front porches of your Undocumented neighbors… because an enemy is someone whose story you have not heard.

In this podcast, undocumented youth read their own autobiographical stories. These DACA-mented leaders courageously tell their stories, representing the pain, struggles, and resilience of so many undocumented Americans.

Story themes include the threat of deportation; the injustice of being sent into exile from the country in which you were raised; border patrol; the current human and civil rights threats to immigrants; racial profiling.

This platform invites people who are not woven into the immigrant community to get to know undocumented people through powerful stories from their lives. Listeners will be inspired by the courage of these stories, while also learning about the threats undocumented immigrants face.
