Project Community: Immigration
Tonight in our Project Community Special we take you away from the conversation of the wall and show you what happens after migrants cross our border, into the United States. Some say it’s a broken system. But the immigration process is complicated and takes time and money – money away from migrants and from tax payers. This year we’ve been exploring the differing opinions and trying, to find common ground.

The Life of a Writer- Robert Creeley
Robert Creeley discusses the importance (and difficulty) of maintaining patience as a writer. This conversation was excerpted from a July 1965 interview with Richard O. Moore. The film was produced and edited in 1975 by the American Poetry Archive/Poetry Center at San Francisco State University. The footage of Robert Creeley and his wife, Bobbie Louise Creeley, was shot at their home in Placitas, New Mexico.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.
