RachelSimone Wyley is a poet-essayist-songwriter-vocalist. She understands art to be the solution to racial inequity, not simply its mirror and megaphone. She leverages dialogue, deliberate pauses, and a differentiated relationship with time to manufacture the spaciousness needed for authentic exchange.

By leveraging music as a facilitation tool, RachelSimone activates the qualities of creativity, empathy, and vulnerability in others - however latent - to connect individuals in spontaneous community and then, to guide them through a process of critical unlearning and radical re-education. She deliberately disrupts the power dynamic that exists between artist (the "entertainer") and audience (the "entertained") and requires all present to offer their own emotional collateral as a critical part of the creation process.
