*TW: sexual violence, assault, and domestic abuse*
In this episode of "Protect Our AAPI Community", Alina sits down with Kacey Lee, a social media director and organizer at Space to Speak. The two talk about the need for anti-violence work as well as how to lower sexual assault rates in the Asian community. Kacey discusses her work with Space to Speak, an organization striving to create a safe space for survivors of sexual assault, harassment, and violence in all forms, as well as the importance of "educating our sons" rather than "protecting our daughters". The episode also covers the origin and patterns of "#notallmen" alongside "#yesallwomen" and "#metoo". For more resources check out the list provided by Kacey below alongside her socials.
