In this episode of MUM, host Ellen Wong engages in an open-hearted discussion with death laborer and author meital yaniv. The conversation centers around their book, 'Bloodlines,' which explores the impact of the Israeli apartheid regime through the lens of meital’s personal experiences and ancestral history. Topics include the deep-seated trauma and unaddressed grief carried by generations, the indoctrination within Israeli society, and meital’s own life experience as an ex-israeli/ex-zionist. Ellen and meital emphasize the importance of compassion, the practice of grief, and the global implications of dismantling militarized identities for collective healing.
