After studying the tumultuous history of the Afghani’s and hearing about a woman named Meena, Private Investigator Melody Ermachild Chavis traveled to Afghanistan to research the remarkable story of Meena, the founder of the Revolutionary Association of the Women of Afghanistan (RAWA). The result was an inspirational book chronicling Meena’s amazing life, her work, her struggles, her traumas and her tragedies against the backdrop of the ruthless Taliban that followed the years of harsh Russian occupation. Tune in to hear Melody describe the journey she traveled while using her investigative skills to create this important and timely story.
Melody Ermachild Chavis
For 32 years, Private Investigator Melody Ermachild Chavis worked on capital case appeals and trials for the defense. Currently, she serves as consulting investigator to the Death Penalty Clinic at U. C. Berkeley Law School. Her search for the roots of violence led to the writing of her first book, Altars In The Street (Bell Tower, 1997), and many essays. Melody’s work for social change is sustained by her Buddhist practice. She is a long-time student at Berkeley Zen Center, and has helped to develop socially-engaged Buddhism in the U.S. through her work with Buddhist Peace Fellowship and the Buddhist Alliance for Social Engagement. In early 2002, she traveled to Afghanistan, where she used her investigative skills to research the biography, MEENA, The Martyred Founder of the Revolutionary Association of the Women of Afghanistan, (St. Martin’s Press, 2003). Sales of the book benefit RAWA’s medical and educational work for women and children.

Meena’s words quoted from the book
I’m the woman who has awakened
I’ve risen and become a tempest through the
ashes of my burnt children
I’ve risen from the rivulets of my brother’s blood
My nation’s wrath has empowered me
I’m the woman who has awakened,
I’ve found my path and will never turn back.
