54:58Now PlayingJuly is Disability Pride Month, and as we’ve learned in so many other spaces, inclusion isn’t just good for the people who need accommodation. Inclusion is good for everyone.
This week, Malynda Hale is filling in for Amanda Weinstein; she, Rachel, and Jasmine chat about recent news of teachers being fired over inclusive books and songs before they’re joined by amazing mom Megan Higgins. Megan has been advocating for her daughter Isabella and fighting for disability-inclusive playgrounds in their community. She also wrote a book called Super Special Magic Shoes to help kids like Isabella feel good about wearing leg braces.
After that, Rachel sits down with Dom Kelly, the co-founder and CEO of New Disabled South. Dom and Rachel talk about why disability rights are so personal for him, some common misconceptions about disability justice, and how Dom is able to provide paid family leave for all of his employees. We also hear about what it’s like to work with Stacey Abrams!
Finally, Malynda, Rachel and Jasmine raise a glass to teaching, the SAG/WGA strike, and the wisdom of elderly family members in this episode’s “Toast to Joy.”
