Five Podcasts about Disability Pride & History
In honor of Disability Pride Month, I got the opportunity to curate a list of podcast episodes focusing on disability pride and history for Sounds Like Impact, a newsletter focused on social impact and audio storytelling. This list features people with disabilities discussing their life experiences, intersections between disability and other marginalized identities, and activists who fought to create a more accessible and equitable world.
Check out the Sounds Like Impact newsletter to listen to these episodes, explore calls to action around disability education and advocacy, and get more social impact content focused on audio and action!
