Inherited host Shaylyn Martos sits down with storyteller Vi Pham, who reflected on her own family history to better understand the effect of Australia’s immigration policy on climate-impacted Pasifika communities in Ep. 7, “Home and Away.” Together, they talk about Vi’s work in the legal system, the experience of putting together her story, and her goals for the future. 
Thuy Vi Pham (she/they) is a queer second generation Vietnamese-Australian, living in the city of Meanjin (Brisbane, Queensland). She has just completed a dual degree in Law and Ecology, and is passionate about access to justice within colonial legal systems. Vi entered audio storytelling through her local radio station, 4ZZZ Community Radio, where she is an announcer for the science show, Know Idea. Each week, she can be found reporting the latest research on a myriad of topics including robot design, urban wildlife, and the search for extraterrestrial life. When not working, Vi enjoys scuba-diving, aquarium-keeping, and making up songs about her cat. You can find her on Instagram @dstantdreamer.
