Recorded five weeks into the 2023 flashpoint of genocidal violence enacted upon Gazans and Palestinians across Israel/Palestine, Vivien reflects on how she is surviving from across the ocean, how she loves seeds more than ever before, and what is at stake for all of us in this test of our humanity.

    Episode 16 - API Chaya Natural Helpers

    On this episode, the 1ME crew talks with some of the folks behind the Natural Helpers program at API Chaya, a Seattle-based org that empowers survivors of gender-based violence to gain safety, connection, and wellness. They build power by educating and mobilizing South Asian, Asian, Pacific Islander, and all immigrant communities to end exploitation, creating a world where all people can heal and thrive. Their Natural Helpers program supports community members in learning about human trafficking, domestic and sexual violence, the societal forces that create conditions for violence, as well as in skill building around how to respond to harm, injustice, and support survivors. We learn about the familial roots of the organization's work, how the sustained work of Natural Helpers has made healing possible, and the ways that grief work is integral to revolution.
