An illegal voting case in Alaska highlights lingering confusion over the rights extended to the citizens of American Samoa, a U.S. territory. Eleven Samoans from Whittier, Alaska are charged with felonies for alleged voter fraud by participating in their local election. All have U.S. passports, were born on U.S. soil, and can even participate in the presidential primary process. The territory has been under heavy colonial pressure for centuries and has been under U.S. oversight for more than 125 years. But Congress never granted its citizens the right to vote in national elections. In another case, tribes in North Dakota were dealt a serious blow in their ongoing fight against redistricting that reduces their collective power in state elections. GUESTS Charles Ala'ilima (Samoan), attorney Tafilisaunoa Toleafoa (Samoan), executive director of the Pacific Community of Alaska Neil Weare, co-director of Right to Democracy Nicole Donaghy (Hunkpapa Lakota), executive director of North Dakota Native Vote

Welcome to Season 2 of Come With Me — a podcast devoted to the portals that initiate us into deeper love, wilder truth, and unapologetic embodiment. In this opening episode, I share a deeply personal story of rupture with the woman who raised me — my Samoan grandmother — and the emotional reckoning that followed when repair wasn't possible. This isn't just a story about family; it's a reflection on what happens when love remains… but safety, attunement, and accountability do not. We explore: The truth about repair (and why it's rarely mutual) How ancestral trauma shapes our nervous systems and intimacy patterns The emotional progression from resentment to contempt What it means to return to yourself when others can't meet you The difference between performative and embodied repair And the radical self-leadership required to break generational cycles This episode is for those who've over-given, over-explained, and still felt unseen. For those navigating the grief of love without safety. For those ready to stop waiting for someone else to change… and start choosing themselves. You heal forward by healing back. And that healing begins in your body. Let's stay connected: Instagram: @catrinaarmendariz Website: www.catrinaarmendariz.com

Gus T. continues his cinematic odyssey through the 2025 Seattle International Film Festival. He had the pleasure of viewing the New Zealand film TINÃ, and then filmmaker Miki Magasiva and actor Beulah Koale were generous enough to share a bit of their time and insight with Gus while visiting North America. We discussed the challenges that Samoan filmmakers face in New Zealand and why Magasiva helped create The Brown Factory. Gus made a colossal error, originally thinking Anapela Polataivao's character lost her daughter during the 2019 Racist massacre at Christchurch. In the film, her daughter is one of the nearly 200 victims of the 2011 earthquake in the same region. This notwithstanding, the System of White Supremacy is a major theme of the film, and Magasiva and Beulah detail how this film honestly reflects the racial power dynamics of New Zealand in 2025. They each shared with Gus that although there are few people classified as black in New Zealand, the non-white people native to the area are routinely targeted with anti-black racist abuse. We also make time for critical dialog on mental health and suicide.

Send us a textWhat does it take to raise confident, resilient children in today's complex world? Former Seattle Seahawks linebacker Lofa Tatupu opens the playbook on his parenting journey in this compelling conversation about finding your path through adversity.The 2005 second-round draft pick and three-time Pro Bowler takes us back to his childhood as the only Samoan kid in Massachusetts, where he faced bullying and struggled to fit in. These early challenges, alongside his parents' divorce and losing their family home, became the forge that tempered his character and fueled his football career. "It was just failure, rise, failure, rise, failure, rise," Tatupu reflects. "How are we going to overcome this hurdle? That's how we do it, let's go."What makes this conversation particularly powerful is Tatupu's transparency about parenting his two sons, each with distinct personalities and passions. Despite his football pedigree (his father played 14 NFL seasons), Tatupu places no pressure on his children to follow that path. When his older son revealed his true passion for music at a family gathering, Tatupu embraced it completely: "I don't care if you pick up a basketball or football ever again in your life. What I saw tonight was your path and your calling."Tatupu's parenting philosophy centers on staying present with your children, truly seeing situations from their perspective rather than imposing your own. He emphasizes the importance of recognizing when your child "lights up" about something—that moment of genuine passion that signals their authentic path. His advice resonates whether you're raising future athletes, musicians, coders, or dreamers of any kind.Discover how this NFL star is applying the lessons of mental toughness, resilience, and adaptability from football to the ultimate team sport—raising a family. Whether you're a sports fan or simply a parent looking for inspiration, this episode offers practical wisdom for helping your children find their way in an increasingly complex world.Please don't forget to leave us a review wherever you consume your podcasts!
