We're proud to share the first episode of GUARANTEED, a new podcast we made with our pal Eve Ewing! On the first episode of GUARANTEED, we start at the beginning–what does guaranteed income mean, what does it not mean, and how does it make freedom and dignified life more possible? Our host Eve learns from three of the world's foremost experts on guaranteed income: economist Damon Jones breaks down the socioeconomic impacts of guaranteed income, philosopher Juliana Bidadanure explains how guaranteeing cash can guarantee greater personal and collective freedom, and former mayor Michael Tubbs shares his experience administering one of the nation's most successful guaranteed income pilots in his hometown of Stockton, CA. Plus, learn a bit more about the Chicagoans we'll be talking to on the rest of the series. GUARANTEED is presented by Respair Production & Media and Eve L. Ewing, with support from the Economic Security Project.

Sherrif is a Chicagoan, father, community builder, and participant in the Chicago Future Fund, a guaranteed income pilot program for formerly incarcerated individuals run by community organization EAT (Equity and Transformation). Also, a small note for our non-Chicago listeners: 26th and California is the intersection where the Cook County Jail is located.

We're SO hyped to share the trailer for Help This Garden Grow, the second Respair project dropping this summer. It's dropping 7/27, and we're celebrating with a BIG release party at the Winter Garden in the Harold Washington Library. It's free and open to the public, come through! Here's the RSVP link: Help This Garden Grow is a new podcast docuseries telling the story of Hazel Johnson, a visionary of the Environmental Justice movement and a resident of the Altgeld Gardens community on the far South Side of Chicago. Hazel is the founder of People for Community Recovery, a 40 year-old organization that fights to address the toxic industrial pollution that has been killing the members of her community. Over the course of the multigenerational multipart documentary, we talk with organizers, policy-makers, historians, and community members about how PCR emerged and led, the legacy of Ms. Johnson's work, and how this marginalized Chicago pocket built the lineage of today's vibrant, impactful, and necessary modern environmental justice movement.  Help This Garden Grow is presented by Respair Production & Media, Elevate, and People for Community Recovery.

On this episode the 1ME crew talks tots and transformation with Zara Raven of Queenie's Crew! Queenie’s Crew engages children in learning about building communities of care without prisons or policing. Every month, members receive an email with an activity that kids can complete to learn more about abolition: they share activities like coloring pages, word searches, word scrambles, mazes, and reflection exercises. Using readings and art projects, the collective supports children in imagining a collective future where we are all free. Coordinator Zara Raven talks about how young people understand abolition, the catharsis and growth the collective has created for parents and caregivers, and much more. Plus, a squad of youth participants read See You Soon, the picture book on which the experiment is based.
