Sie ist Radiomoderatorin, trainiert gewaltfreie Bewegungen in Strategie und ist Aktivistin. Ihre Aufsätze über Themen der Bewegung werden überall in den Vereinigten Staaten veröffentlicht. Sie lebt in New Mexico in den Bergen. Rivera Sun lives in an earthship in the high desert of New Mexico. She gets up before dawn (and the lizards) and starts her day by drinking pu'erh tea and baking bread in her outdoor adobe clay oven. She has red hair, a twin sister, and a fondness for esoteric mystics. Everything else about her – except her writing – is perfectly ordinary. Rivera writes the stories of our times and rallies us to meet adversity with gusto. She is the author of five social protest novels, as well as nine theatrical plays, three books of poetry, and a study guide to nonviolent action. Rivera co-hosts Love and Revolution Radio, and has co-founded two nationwide nonviolent study and action groups. She has been the program director for Pace e Bene/Campaign Nonviolence and holds webinars, workshops and speaks nationally on the history and power of active nonviolence. Her essays on social justice are syndicated by Peace Voice and have appeared in hundreds of newspapers and magazines. She studied strategic nonviolent civil action at the James Lawson Institute and went to Bennington College to study writing as a Harcourt Scholar but graduated with a degree in dance. After six years working as a professional playwright, choreographer, and director in the San Francisco Bay Area, she founded the nationally touring Rising Sun Dance & Theater company that received coast-to-coast standing ovations. Being an embodiment of love-in-action in all that she does, Rivera is a passionate participant in creating a just, sustainable, and peaceful world. She takes the responsibility of life seriously . . . and with a good dose of humor. Her novels focus on the social issues of our times, positing creative solutions as well as muckraking through the causes of suffering. "Life is the ultimate adventure!" Rivera says. Rivera is easy to connect with on Facebook and Twitter, or through the RiveraSun.com website. She encourages her readers to reach out, write reviews, and share their favorite quotes with others. A Poetic Writer's Statement by Rivera Sun I collect tangible heroes imperfect and lovable from all times and all nations, races and creeds with their adventure-plot-metaphors that we, ourselves, live to inspire all people to lead boldly authentic, everyday lives deeply connected to themselves each other and this earth. I pair complexity to simplicity fold panoramas into packages challenge one voice to speak many. I leave room for music, dance, and physicality. embodying the teller in mind, heart, and soul. The kitchen becomes a stage the classroom a theater every human a storyteller. The tales become common discussed over tea, simmered with dinner written in letters rippling. . . into our lives.
