    Episode 10: The Work Will Continue - Legal Special with Lainey Feingold and Eve Hill

    The Digital Publishing Podcast returns! Times have certainly changed since the last episode, so we have 2 expert lawyers in the field of accessible publishing, Lainey Feingold and Eve Hill, joining me and my new co-host Simon Holt to discuss where we’re at, what’s changed and what hasn’t.This was an unusual episode to record, as it wades into politics in a way this podcast doesn't normally. But in this critical historical moment, where disability rights in the US are under threat in such a blunt and ill-thought-out way, there is no room for 'both sides'. That said, we stay practical and optimistic, with 2 of the best experts in the business helping to understand the reality of the current situation.
