Finding my way to Olympic weightlifting ft. Wanda Diao
<p>Growing up in Taiwan as a kid, I seldom felt that women were encouraged to be strong and do weight lifting. Beauty standards back in the day, and honestly, in current times have been disappointing to say the least. Nowadays, it’s wonderful to see more women working out, staying strong, and doing weightlifting. </p> <p>In this episode, you’ll hear from Wanda Diao, who’s been doing Olympic weightlifting as a hobby for around 5 years. Wanda is also vegetarian. What was the spark for Wanda to step into the world of weightlifting? What are some misconceptions about being vegetarian while aiming to stay strong?</p> <p>My guest is not a professional athlete or a nutritionist and will be sharing from her personal experience. Let’s get started. </p> <p><br></p> <p>Follow Wanda on Instagram @wanda_wanerh</p> <p><br></p>

<p>In this extended episode, you’ll hear from Laura Moye, Country Specialist of Amnesty International Taiwan. We will focus on 2 reports published by Amnesty International: "Israel’s apartheid against Palestinians: Cruel system of domination and crime against humanity" and “Unlawful Use of US-made Munitions and Violations of International Law by Israel Since January 2023.” Based on the 2 reports, Laura shares with us what actions of the state of Israel constitute apartheid against Palestinians, and the U.S. government’s complicity in the Israeli state’s ongoing aggression against Palestinians in Gaza. </p> <p>Laura also touches on what it means for Taiwan to be a country that prides itself as supportive of universal human rights yet staying silent while the Israeli army continues their aggression in Gaza. </p> <p><br></p> <p>Amnesty International's report<a href="https://www.amnesty.org/en/documents/mde15/5141/2022/en/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer"> "Israel’s apartheid against Palestinians: Cruel system of domination and crime against humanity”</a></p> <p><br></p> <p>Amnesty International’s<a href="https://www.amnesty.org/ehttps://www.amnestyusa.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/4.29.2024-NSM-20-AIUSA-submission-re-Israel.pdfn/documents/mde15/5141/2022/en/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer"> April 2024 report on US military aid<br></a> Cover photo: The separation wall built by Israel in the West Bank.
