    CRISIS Part 4 - CRISIS Conclusions w/ the 1ME Crew

    The squad hops back into the lab one more time to discuss our convos with three community crisis response projects: REP, Cambridge HEART, and Care-Based Safety.  Dame and Kiss are joined by Deana Lewis and Eva Nagao. Deana is a founding member of Just Practice Collaborative–a group that builds communities’ capacities to respond to intimate partner violence and sexual assault without relying on state-based systems. Eva is a member of Interrupting Criminalization, a movement resource hub offering information and networks for advocates building a world free of criminalization. As our sociopolitical reality births crisis after crisis, the 1ME squad of Dame, Kiss, and Eva dig deep with three different experiments to learn how we can better show up in moments of communal and structural crisis.  As we figure out what redefining and creating safety look like under the carceral conditions of our time, it’s just as true as ever that we don’t need one answer to how we get free–we need one million experiments.

    CRISIS Part 3 - Care-Based Safety in Michigan

    One Million Experiments is back in your ear for Season 3, and we're diving deep with experiments around community crisis response! As our sociopolitical reality births crisis after crisis, the 1ME squad of Dame, Kiss, and Eva dig deep with three different experiments to learn how we can better show up in moments of communal and structural crisis. They also  are joined on every episode’s Peer Review by special guest Deana Lewis, a founding member of Just Practice Collaborative–a group that builds communities’ capacities to respond to intimate partner violence and sexual assault without relying on state-based systems. As we figure out what redefining and creating safety look like under the carceral conditions of our time, it’s just as true as ever that we don’t need one answer to how we get free–we need one million experiments. On Episode 3 of this season, the crew talks with Liz Kennedy and Sheri Wander of Care-Based Safety, an experiment working in the cities of Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti in Michigan to build a community response program that brings loving, unarmed support to people directly impacted by structural violence – without police. Currently in the third iteration of their pilot program, they are a daily downtown presence in downtown Ypsilanti responding to crises as they arise in real time, including: basic first aid (wound care, wellness checks); overdose prevention, reversal, and aftercare; noise complaints and neighbor concerns; and distress related to mental health and other stressors. Liz and Sheri talk through how they've battled cooptation, their collective decision-making practice, and how they've learned to make sure their presence is both welcome and useful.

As we figure out what redefining and creating safety look like under the carceral conditions of our time, it’s just as true as ever that we don’t need one answer to how we get free–we need one million experiments. On this episode we chop it up with Dara Bayer, a founding member and former co-director of Cambridge HEART. An ongoing experiment born from the 2020 uprising, Dara and her comrades have rigorously wrestled with the challenges of scaling a crisis response organization in the face of cooptation, divestment, and the challenges that emerge from centering those most impacted by carceral systems. In the early days of her step away from leadership, Dara reflects on what she's learned building this experiment with love, dedication, and commitment to her people.

    The 1ME squad has some announcements to make to you, the public! First off: the One Million Experiments film is now available online on Apple TV, Google Play, and Youtube Movies–check out the film and spread the word. Next, the podcast is coming back this summer for Season 3: Crisis, a suite of brand-new episodes focused on what we can learn crisis response in our communities to help us move through the sociopolitical crisis of this moment. And last but not least, we're hyped to announce 1ME: In the Field, a new travel show from Respair coming Fall 2025! Five years after uprising, hosts Damon and Daniel get out of the lab and into the field to reconnect with the experiments featured on the 1ME podcast, explore the spaces and places these local organizers call home, and showcase the vibrant, joyful conversation creating new possibilities for wellness and protection. Continuing the work of the podcast and film, the series makes tangible and irresistible the community-built definitions and strategies for safety that are already being created, and serves as an antidote to the despair created when carceral systems are the only option. We don’t need one answer to how we get free–we need one million experiments.
