Self hate is an issue I have been combating for years since my abuse. After countless times of being torn down, broken, and encouraged to hate myself, breaking the habit is difficult.
Today, I am joined by Nancy Paloma, licensed therapist and mental health expert for a therapy session about self hate. Why do we feel it? How do we move on?

Many AAPI survivors face emotional abuse their families. From a single perpetrators, or many at once.
The pressure they face leads to them hiding abuse to avoid community shame, stay in violent relationships, or continue the cycle in the future after years of the abuse being normalized.
It is a major aspect of AAPI abuse we don't talk about. For week 8 of our AAPI Army Campaign, we tackle this issue as well as reflect on the ways societal abuse mirrors cultural and community abuse.

For week 7 of our AAPI Army campaign, we are joined by TEAD teammate Julia Grindstone for a deep drive into the Crouching Tiger-Lady, Hyper-Sexualized Asian Geisha Doll Stereotype.
Because although our culture has normalized the ¨I like Asians¨ fetish, this objectification of AAPI women adds layers of violence and vulnerability to our lives and has roots in racism, American Imperialism, and misogyny.

Anti-Asian hate crimes rose nearly 150% in 2020 according to NBC.
A mass murder in Georgia left 6 Asian women dead.
Structural racism against AAPIs routinely erases and minimizes our struggles and trauma.
For week 6 of our AAPI Army Campaign, we examine how society's treatment of AAPIs… and how it perpetuates violence against us.

Welcome back to week 4 of our AAPI Army Campaign.
Our next survivor has overcome child trafficking and familial abuse.
As a child she was sold to a sweatshop. As an adult, she worked as a stripper. Today she works with clients on emotional and spiritual healing.
We tend not to validate survivors who choose to participate in sex work... or sex in general. However this is extremely important for the AAPI community due to historical and ongoing objectification and sexualization.
Whatever a survivor chooses, it is their choice. They have agency over their bodies and lives.
And as allies and survivors… we are all about helping people recover and embrace their agency.

Welcome back to week 3 in our AAPI Army Campaign.
Our next survivor was fundamental to our campaign. Stories like hers are what helped us contextualize and analyze our experiences. Stories like this help us find words to convey and relate our trauma. Realizing you are not the only one, and that someone else has felt what you felt and that you are not crazy… Stories like these help you find the words you are looking for.
Today we speak to Filipino survivor Naomi, who tells her story of familial emotional abuse, how she was able to validate her trauma, and the need to look at a survivor's experience from within their cultural framework.
