    Carrie Gillispie On The Changes To Disability Education Policy And Its Impact On Students With Disabilities

    In this week’s episode I sat down with Carrie Gillispie. Carrie is the Early Development & Disability Project Director in New America’s Education Policy program, where she focuses on equity in education for young children and students with disabilities. Before joining New America, she led early childhood and disability equity work at The Education Trust and held roles in education policy, research, school psychology, and special education. In response to the Trump administration’s announcement that the oversight of special education will be moved to the Department of Health and Human Services and that the Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights will be moved to the Department of Justice, we sat down to discuss the impact this decision will have on students with disabilities and much, much more.

    Jameisha Prescod FRSA On Disability, Art, The Artists And The Storytellers

    In this week’s episode I sat down with Jameisha Prescod FRSA. Jameisha is a multidisciplinary artist and writer from South London. With work grounded in a research-based practice, Jameisha explores how culture, identity, black history and colonialism influence the way illnesses are experienced. By combining multiple art forms their work reimagines how disabled stories can be archived in more experimental ways. We discuss disability as depicted in art past and present, the role of art and the artists in the disability rights movement, being told “you look okay to me” and much, much more.

    Sonia Vera On Weaving The Threads Between Fashion And Disability

    In this week’s episode I sat down with Sonia Vera. Sonia is a Venezuelan-born model who is seeking to transform how the disability community is represented and celebrated within the fashion industry. She is a passionate advocate for radical, long-overdue change, using fashion as a platform to normalize inclusion and disability, and to shine a light on the significant and largely overlooked spending power of these communities. We discuss how fashion as an art form has always seen disabled bodies, how the industry can go much further in regards to representation and inclusion, being a part of this year’s Met Costume spring exhibition and much, much more.

    Maegan Blau On Designing An Accessible Home

    In this week’s episode I sat down with Maegan Blau. Maegan is the founder and principal designer of Blue Copper Design, an Arizona based studio recognized for its accessibility forward approach and for pushing the industry beyond minimum standards to create spaces that truly support how people live. We discuss the differences between adaptive and accessible, the importance of blending access and design, and what can be created when accessibility is built into the foundation rather than as an afterthought and much, much more.
